I wonder how well their mailing reputation is for high deliverability with this new service.. I've heard that mailing from EC2 was almost pointless due to its low reputation score
- nolite 16y agoAfter reading through the guides, this is the most simple and clear exposition of email deliverability and reputation I've ever come across. http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/index.html?SPFSenderIDDKIM.html http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/... (The mailchimp guide is also nice, and very extensive http://www.mailchimp.com/articles/email-delivery/ http://www.mailchimp.com/articles/email-delivery/ ) Seems like they'll like use a completely different IP range than EC2, and there shouldn't be any problems.. lets hope
- pfarrell 16y agoI work as an engineer for an email service provider. I can tell you that deliverability is one of the core things you bring to the table when you are doing sending for a lot of people. It's the sloppy, people oriented aspect that developers ignore (imagine you've got a huge send going out and gmail just flagged you as a spammer, you better have a contact there to fix it fast). Sure, you can write an app to send a million emails in a few minutes, but your work (and bandwidth costs) are pointless if it never makes it to the customer's inbox. There are a lot of dirty details in sending at volume. But like the old saying goes, "where there's muck, there's brass."
