   Aw, not all email is spam. Be conscious of the customer; while developers (you) prefer less/no email, many non technical people find it very valuable and have a different tolerance.

   Flying with US Airways this past week; 8 flights in 4 days, 5/8 flights were delayed, causing missed connections, etc. How I wish AirHelp was available in the US :(

   We're (sendwithus.com) proud to be a partner -- I think this is really huge, having implemented many of these API's before. Just knowing what's possible with a product/API can be difficult, and pulling in an outside expe

   +1 for a JSON API, that could be really useful. The "Email API" as it stands now is valuable, definitely saves time googling every sign up.

    Title had me worried for a moment! The whole team wanted shirts, so we loaded up -- we're going to wear that blue contraband with pride.

    That's pretty impressive! When you really look at it, every company needs this at some point. It's just a question of if you want to spend the resources/time building it internally, or if you want to focus on your core produc

    Yep, that's the exact workflow we're replacing! Think of the experience for the marketing guy -- after those changes are committed, how can he measure what affect they had?

    I wanted to highlight our (open source) API clients, covering most languages: https://github.com/sendwithus Here's all the code required to send an email with our Python client: api.send(email_id='YOUR-EMAIL-

    Sendwithus is for your transactional/triggered email you're sending through Mailgun; a signup or notification email. At a basic level, get your product email out of your source code, and get the benefits of a dedicated templating

    Hey Christian, valid feedback. As a product/business scales, small problems of modifying templates (and AB testing, etc) get magnified, and in house solutions don't scale.

    by mrmch 13y ago

    You're correct Denis, our developer page purely speaks to the "get templates out of source code" value prop -- maybe a mistake, but it was something we were testing today :)

    That's pretty cool Denis. We don't have an official .Net client yet, but we do have some solid code samples for our REST API. In our experience email templates are a little different from regular HTML templates; things like built-

    Cool Bart, look forward to seeing it! In our experience internal systems can't compare with the product a dedicated team can build. I've had many conversations with companies moving away from a poor internal solution. That being s

    Thanks Frank! The reason we tier on customers is that we sit on top of an esp like Mailgun, which already bill per transaction.

    Thanks for the suggestions, we'll revise this tonight.

    Thanks! Complex products like exact target or constant contact really hinder development; our hope is to make everyone's lives easier.

    That may be confusing because we focus on transactional email, not campaign email (which subscriber would suggest)

    An active user is someone you've sent an email to in a given month, regardless of volume. So you could send 10,000 emails to 1,000 unique email addresses and you're billed for 1,000 customers. Any suggestions on how to better desc

    Allowing email id's to be specified is something we've considered, but for now static id's we auto generate are simple enough. We encourage our customers to use a static "mapping", with constants set to each templat

    Not only is transactional email a great referral channel (just look at what Dropbox did), it's also ripe for optimization. Engagement emails are used by almost every kind of app to facilitate user actions, but by being trapped in sourc
