Seems to be that time of the year (yearly Discourse mandatory maintenance) 😃 .

Looks like gmail finally has killed off it’s 3rd party gmail access. Not that I care, because of Discourse I’ve had switching to mailgun on my bucket list for, well, forever.

Which of course has gone “pay only”.

So is mailjet the best free option then? I should normally easily manage with 200 max and I’m not in the mood to finally set up a mail server of my own.
