SeleMail and Email Routing: send and receive email for your app

SeleMail sends transactional email with a suppression list; Email Routing receives mail on your own domain.

Published by SeleTech

Short answer

SeleMail has two halves. Sending delivers transactional email such as receipts, password resets and alerts with one API call. Email Routing receives mail at addresses on your own domain, for example support@yourdomain, and forwards it to a mailbox, a webhook or your own code.

Delivery is best-effort and is not guaranteed. Marketing and bulk mail are not supported. Each project has its own suppression list: hard bounces and spam complaints add an address immediately, and repeated soft bounces add it too. Sends to a suppressed address are not delivered. Email Routing needs verified forwarding destinations, rejects mail to addresses with no rule, and is off until it is enabled for your project.

It is coming soon.
