Hi, that's a cool idea!
What are your thoughts about it being a possible security hole and external dependency in an app? If boosterpack goes down, or it's compromised somehow, my app is affected.
- Martibis 7mo agoYeah, definitely thought about that. The service is intentionally narrow. Destinations/config are stored encrypted, submissions are treated as pass-through, there is no persistent message storage at all. The idea is to reduce both retained data and attack surface as much as possible. On reliability: yes, this is still a third-party dependency in the submission path. So if someone wants absolute control or is dealing with very sensitive data, I’d still say a self-built endpoint is the better choice. This is really meant for the middle ground: people who want spam protection + delivery handling without maintaining the whole thing themselves.
