We are sending out about 1.8 million emails per month. SES or sendgrid would be way to expensive. (~$1000). We do it from a single server (2ghz, 4gb) hosted somewhere outside of google. It costs us about $60 per month and we have a great delivery rate (spif, dkim, dedicated ip and also very important: we handle all email bounces in appengine and dont send any further email to an address if it bounces)
Our delivery rate is quite high, way beyond GAE, except for hotmail. I can highly recommend building setting up your own email server and just add a simple php script to expose a http api. Took me about a day to setup and its 20x cheaper then sendgrid. It's been running for almost a year and i never even had to login into the mailserver. it just runs super smooth. I'm monitoring it with prodeagle.com Cheers, -Andrin On Fri, Dec 2, 2011 at 2:53 AM, Vivek Puri <v...@vivekpuri.com> wrote: > 'Cause we like startups! > > On Dec 1, 8:19 pm, voscausa <robert....@gmail.com> wrote: > > Why Sendgrid and not AWS SES.
