Ask YC: Reliable and quick smtp relay service
1 point by procyon on Oct 29, 2008 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Hello everybody,

I have a site which is ready to be launched in couple of weeks. Unfortunately we realized that the service we were using until now to deliver our notification emails is not passing performance bar.

We need to find an smtp service which we can use to deliver emails after account creation, password resets and account activity.

Any recommendations ? Here are the requirements we are working with -

- Need to integrate with Rails

- Need to send it using unlimited from addresses or allow us flexibility to add reply to address in header

- We prefer somebody from US.




I use fastmail.fm to relay email from my postfix server. Works good, but I don't send many


append to this question. Has anybody tried gmail as an smtp with postfix ?
