The install guide offers a handful of email providers for Discourse. I was wondering if people could chime in with their feedback for the ones mentioned in the guide (Mailgun, Elastic, SendGrid, Mailjet).

I used SendGrid on an install and it took awhile to get it to work correctly. I had to verify with five separate CNAMEs to verify the site and get emails not to end up in spam folders.

What has been the most painless service for you? And is the verification process the same for every provider?
