Appwrite

Can anyone recommend a free email SMTP server, so I can use that for integration with appwrite

TL;DR

The user is asking for recommendations for a free SMTP server to use for their startup. Some suggestions are given, including PHPMailer and using Google and Apple authentication instead of SMTP. SendGrid and SendInBlue are recommended as they offer free daily email limits. One user experienced issues when exceeding the daily email limit. Solution: Use SendGrid or SendInBlue as they provide free email limits that may suit the user's needs.

These two great options. SendGrid SendInBlue

With SendGrid you'll get 100 free emails per day. With SendInBlue you'll get 300 per day

Can vouch for SendGrid

used it and loved i

Oook

Is it totally free?

Up to the limits

nope. 100 emails per day

Yes

What if more than 100 users register per day?

well in my case, it just stopped sending emails until the count reset

ouch 😳

Maybe I'll use Google and Apple authentication in place of emails SMTP

I am trying to cut down cost

You can. But what is your target? In production it's much better to use a well designed email system for mane purposes.

And for development both options are great

What does the monthly average cost¿

PHPMailer

I guess should be based on usage, when the daily 100 limit is crossed
