Resend ​

CAUTION

the free plan is 100 emails per day, not only 3 000 per month

WARNING

without SPF, DKIM and DMARC mail lands in spam - DMARC is marked optional, add it anyway

  • send from a subdomain like app.example.com - a damaged reputation stays there
  • copy values with the copy button - the dashboard shortens them with [...], TXT goes without quotes
  • DigitalOcean appends the root domain to Hostname - paste Name as is
  • until Verify passes, mail goes only from onboarding@resend.dev to your own address
  • click and open tracking off - rewritten links look like spam
  • the API key is the SMTP password and is shown once, from is on the verified domain
  • DMARC to p=quarantine after a few weeks without delivery problems
