@phenomlab Sounds good. Thank you again very much!

So I have gone with gmail with my wifes website to deliver mail and it is working great. With the other website, I think I am going to go with one of the other ones due to them not having a gmail email.

Which one of those top do you recommend? I was thinking of using the first one or Mailgun since I have used them before. If one of the other ones is better, please let me know. Or if there is one listed that you like better, let me know too.

Thanks again!

@Madchatthew mailgun would be my recommendation here. I think they also have a free plan if I’m not mistaken.

"I’ve been following this thread — super helpful explanations about MX, relay hosts and port restrictions. Many self-hosted mail setups eventually hit the same deliverability issues, especially when using fresh IPs.

When I was researching SMTP relays and self-hosted mail reliability, I started keeping a comparison list of tools and services in one place: https://bestaitables.com/
– not about hosting specifically, but includes several SMTP/ESP providers that can help avoid Postfix deliverability headaches while ports / IP reputation settle.

If anyone has long-term experience with self-hosted SMTP + DNS set-ups that remain stable, would be great to hear which configurations worked best."
