One of the things I don't really want to self host is a mail server, especially for outbound mail. Currently I'm using a Gmail account, but I want to change that.
What do you all use for things like notifications sent through smtp?
I'm leaning towards AWS SES since it's cheap, but I know there are some other options like mailgun and sendgrid.
That's pretty much my concern as well. Most of my notifications (lemmy/etc) get sent from a gsuite account or a fastmail account. I don't really want any automated e-mails being tied to my personal accounts like that.
With my one user gsuite I setup a secondary domain in it so lemmy sends from [email protected], not my main address, but lemmy still authenticates using my main address.
