SMTP Service
A drop-in SMTP relay for teams that prefer standard mail-client integrations. Same backend delivery engine, same tracking and analytics — just connect over SMTP instead of REST.
How it works
- Use your API key as the SMTP password — no extra credentials needed.
- Permission scopes are validated before any message is accepted.
- MIME is parsed and fed into the same queue-backed send pipeline.
- Tracking, analytics, and webhooks work identically to REST sends.
Capabilities
- Standard SMTP relay — works with any language, framework, or email client.
- Authenticate with your Sendr API key as the SMTP password.
- Same delivery pipeline as the REST API — queuing, tracking, and analytics included.
- Scope-aware auth enforces sending permissions before accepting messages.
- Full MIME parsing — From, To, CC, BCC, subject, body, and attachments.
- Domain verification and suppression filters applied automatically.
- Shared delivery policies and rate limits across SMTP and REST sends.
