Is there an large need for this? MailChannels works if you want free outgoing mail. (We use AWS SES for our Workers since the lack of webhook events with MailChannels for delivery events is kinda a problem.)
- jon4s 3y agoWhen building an email service, a few subrequests per mail send from a Worker acting as an SMTP server will be cheaper than the extra $ per millon mails for the API at MailGun/MailChannels/SES.
- Manouchehri 3y agoI don’t understand how $0 per outgoing email with MailChannels will cost more than $0 for a million emails. For incoming emails, Cloudflare Email Workers are $0 per email and SendGrid is also $0 per email. We only pay for the cost of the Worker with this setup.
- ttul 3y agoMailChannels CEO here. Would you pay something to get access to webhooks for delivery notifications and click-tracking? We have it; it's just not exposed.
- Manouchehri 3y ago1. Would pay for webhook delivery notifications as long as it isn’t more expensive than AWS SES. 2. Would not pay for click tracking. Might use it if it’s free. 3. We probably won’t use MailChannels again yet since we want to use AMP emails and ticket #221628 was handled pretty poorly. (We made our own MailChannels-like API for AWS SES after the frustrating experience.)
- ttul 3y agoSorry to hear that, but glad you found an alternative that works.
