La guía de instalación ofrece varios proveedores de correo electrónico para Discourse. Me preguntaba si alguien podría compartir su experiencia sobre los mencionados en la guía (Mailgun, Elastic, SendGrid, Mailjet).
Utilicé SendGrid en una instalación y me llevó un tiempo configurarlo correctamente. Tuve que verificar el sitio con cinco registros CNAME distintos para evitar que los correos terminaran en carpetas de spam.
¿Qué servicio ha sido el más sencillo para ustedes? ¿El proceso de verificación es el mismo para todos los proveedores?
I’ve found mailgun to be very simple and effective. Their dashboard tells you exactly what you need to configure and checks DNS regularly to make sure records stay intact. The rest of their platform is rather simplistic, if you’re looking for more in the way of analytics you may be better paying the premium and sticking with Sendgrid.
Last time I checked MailJet and SendGrid were equally priced, but MailJet didn’t really offer much over cheaper options such as MailGun and ElasticEmail.
As to ‘best’, it very much depends on your appetite for this kind of stuff. Setting up CNAMEs is par for the course with everyone. All of the companies you’ve mentioned are experts in mail deliverability and that’s part of why they’re recommended rather than running a local SMTP server. If you give us more information on your community size and estimated volumes it would certainly help.
My community is very small. A better topic title should be “Easiest Email Providers”. Mailgun had fewer records to work with and got up and running faster, which is what I was looking for. Serious analytics is out of my range so Mailgun was just what I needed.
I’m mainly looking for feedback from other uses as to if they encountered any roadblocks or had their feedback about a particular service.
Mailgun is extremely good, I’ve set it up months ago and I’ve never even went back on to check anything because there are never any errors or limit problems.
Estaba usando SendGrid, pero luego de configurar mi foro de Discourse, suspendieron mi cuenta de SendGrid pensando que era un spammer (debido a que Discourse envía muchos correos electrónicos). Intenté contactar con soporte pero no respondieron, habían pasado dos días y mi foro realmente necesita enviar un correo electrónico, y de todos modos necesito un mejor proveedor. ¿Cuál es gratuito y realmente bueno?
