Hi Robert.
I really do not understand why Elastic Email Sales Support told me that. I asked them if they could buy any of their plans to use Discourse, and they responded again that there was no integration.
Now I’m still in conversation with another person.
Finally, Carlos from Elastic Email said:
Pay as you Go is definitely compatible with SMTP. You should have no problem using that plan. Just ensure to use the instructions in the article and the Discourse link you provided and everything should work correctly.
If there are any problems during setup please let us know and we’ll ensure to provide assistance to get everything working correctly. We highly appreciate your help with this.
Thanks for choosing Elastic Email!
I should try, but it seems that nobody here uses Elastic Email (?).
