Who can suggest an ethical SMTP provider for low volume transactional mail? I’m willing to pay up to 2€/month for a few hundred mails per month.

    “Low volume” vs. “A few hundred mails per month”

    OK, what of the above?

      A few hundred a month is just a few per day. That is pretty low volume by most standards.

      I would say in general if the SMTP server could be replaced by a single human writing and mailing snail-mail letters by hand it qualifies as low volume.

      This is something you used to be able to do for free, no problem. It’s only a few of the big mail accepting companies being extra shitty about accepting mail making this tough. Looking at you Microsoft. So a few hundred mails per month is ridiculous both on storage, bandwidth and CPU consumption.

        I know. I was there, before Sanford Wallace invented the email spam and forced any sane SMTP server into password protections and whitelists.
