Sending Email

amazee.io Mail Transfer Agent (MTA)

amazee.io enables you to send out emails from any environment using our MTA. This is typically okay for sending low volumes of transactional emails, such as password resets. It is not suitable for high-volume emails, such as newsletters.

Service Policy

Service Level: Best-effort delivery

• No guaranteed email deliverability
• No Service Level Agreement (SLA) provided

Note

This service is provided as-is without delivery guarantees or performance commitments.

SPF Records

You need to properly configure your DNS domain by adding the following SPF record:

Bash

example.com   . IN TXT "v=spf1 a mx include:spf.amazee.io ?all"

Tip

You are free to adapt this SPF record to suit your needs, e.g. if you have other mail servers sending emails, you will need to add additional IP addresses to it.

DMARC and DKIM

Not supported on the amazee.io MTA.

Custom mail server

If you need:

• A highly reliable sending email system
• An SLA on email sending
• DMARC or DKIM authentication
• Mass email sending

You need to use a third-party mail provider. Here are some examples:

• Amazon SES
• Mailgun
• Mailjet
• SendGrid

If you plan on using an external Mail Provider, you can use the Drupal SMTP Authentication Module.

Mail Rerouting for environments

You can configure your application to reroute emails; this is not something we can do at the MTA layer, your application needs to do this. For example in Drupal you can use the Reroute Email Module.
