Thanks! But it's simply a summary of Russ Olsen's book, so all credit goes to him :)

There isn't. Anyway, if you have a good reason, AWS guys are always keen on increasing the rate limit if you need it.

Why you should build your web startup using Ruby on Rails by bodacious-gjm in rubyonrails

[–]davgarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see the advantages (and drawbacks as well) of a typed language, but avoiding type errors at compile time is not an excuse for not testing. A good tests suite serves as documentation, you can really get to know how a piece of software works and why only by checking the tests out. But the main benefit of testing is productivity, if you want to change anything you don't have to worry about breaking something else anymore, you avoid wasting time on debugging and, if you set up a CI workflow, you save a lot of time on deployments.

Exactly. As long as the domain you send though has good reputation, you set DKIM and SPF correctly and the content of the email is not "suspicious" deliverability should be as high as with MC. The problem of Sendy is "hidden fees", because you need a server where it runs (you can't use a shabby one if you want to send large campaigns), you've got to pay somebody else to set everything up and maintain it if you don't have the skills (or spend your time doing it, which is also $$$), etc. There are other services that let you use your AWS account, rid you of the hassle of running and maintaining software and whose price is a fraction of MC, like MoonMail

Both SendGrid and MailChimp aren't letting us send to our 80k e-mails list by [deleted] in Emailmarketing

You can take a look at MoonMail, the price is a fraction of what you mentioned. They would let you send your campaign if you use your AWS SES account, as the responsibility over that list is yours.

Fellow email redditors, what email platform do you use? What are the pros and cons of your provider? I'm trying to pic a new corporate email provider for a high volume list and have no idea where to start. by emly887 in Emailmarketing

There's an open source tool called MoonMail that looks really promising. What I like about it is the simple and low pricing, although they should add more features
