One good argument I found [^1] about not exposing primary keys is that primary keys may change (during system/db change) and you want to ensure users have a consistent way of accessing data.

Thanks for this. Will fix.

It's not the same as what Mailgun does. Mailgun lets you send emails programmatically. Sendy/Sendwithses lets you send campaigns from an interface (using your SES).

I think a better route is getting someone to handle the marketing. As engineers, even when we know what to do in terms of marketing, we still find it hard to do because it's not something we enjoy like engineering.

I'd rather recommend using a cheaper service like Amazon SES than running your own mail server. Email deliverability is complex and figuring it out may not be worth it.

Plug: If anyone is looking for a way to use RSS for their newsletters instead of getting it in their inbox, see http://myrss.email/

Delivery advantage? I doubt. In the background, some of these tools use AWS SES/Mailgun/Sendgrid. (I know Convertkit use to use Mailgun for sending).

However, it's that they can help with handling the bulk sending properly especially with queuing and scheduling.

Re: link tracking, I believe you can always turn this off. Even for open tracking. Explore the settings and you should find where.

+1 for Mailgun.

Send a support mail to Mailgun and hear what they have to say about it. You can also consider using their mailing list option: https://documentation.mailgun.com/en/latest/api-mailinglists...

Yup

This is nice. Shows a different approach to getting the ESP from the mail header.

Yes, for the mailbox I ran it on. I'll like to see someone do this on a "business" mailbox

Yes it's intentionally as Mandrill is still used solely for transactional emails and Mailchimp for marketing. Same reason I didn't merge Mailgun and Mailjet.

Updated. People can now signup and give it a spin before deciding to subscribe.

Thanks for the feedback. Actually makes sense. The target is for newsletters so no attachment support, spam filtering (for now) and access to full email headers (no RSS element this will fit in).

I actually started it as opensource but maintenance and monetisation was difficult. The source is still a good start point to build anything off Amazon SES/Mailgun analytics https://github.com/suetco/suet

Thanks a lot for the feedback!! I will do that!

Advertise your other projects on the site? (ekko.site for example). You an also build pro features that people can pay for; allowing creating custom endpoints and responses for example. You need to be sure people it will be what people want though.

I really want to keep running it.

Is the buyer planning to shut it down? Or you mean you enjoy running it.

There are a couple of ways to make money from OSS. My fav is having a paid managed version. Ghost[1] and Discourse[2] are good examples of this. (I am using the same model for a personal project [3]). See https://github.com/nayafia/lemonade-stand for more ways.
