I host my own mail infrastructure and don't rely on third-party tools to send my mails. But in a microservice architecture, managing all the SMTP configs quickly becomes tiresome. After a while I'd always have my credentials and settings scattered in application-properties, bash scripts and environment files.
So I've build Brieferl, an app where you can add your SMTP servers and send emails through a single API with a simple JSON payload. You also get logs of when/where emails were sent and HTML previews of messages.
I am interested in what you guys think about this. You can create a free account with just your email, add a SMTP server + API key and start sending. (There is no upsell, or paid plan yet)
This is super early, it works and I made it actually just for myself but a friend told me he‘d also love to use this, so I thought why not ask other developers what they think.
Is this something you’d use? Are there some features that would it more valuable for you? Or is this something only I’ve felt?
