I didn’t realise they’d discontinued it. I remember there being an uproar some years back when they ditched the free tier and made entry level pricing $20/mo.
- prawn 4y agoOr was that Mailgun? We'd used and got frustrated with each, so could be both!
- nerdawson 4y agoMailgun was the service a number of my clients flocked to when Mandrill went paid-only. Free options seem to be drying up.

- trinsic2 4y agoI was evaluating Mailchimp for my newsletters at that time. They basically put all the features I was using behind a paywall without notice forcing me to pay that fee. Since I only have a small number of subscribers, It was at that point I started to rethink using a SAAS solution for that purpose and went back to sending newsletters from my Mail client.
