Sendgrid email configuration

Developer help
1

I just updated my mail settings in config.production.json to Sendgrid (see below), and I was wondering if it’s possible to use this for sending bulk emails as well (e.g. when creating a post).

"mail": {
    "transport": "SMTP",
    "options": {
      "service": "Sendgrid",
      "host": "smtp.sendgrid.net",
      "port": "587",
      "auth": {
        "user": "apikey",
        "pass": "password"
      }
    }
  },

@MLFromScratch no, for bulk email newsletters only Mailgun is supported.

Thank you for the answer Kevin. I really like the addition of Members and emails.

I know there must be many things to add/update, I just want to know if you guys (Ghost) are/have considered expanding support from Mailgun to other providers?

This has been answered a few times already on the forum ;-) Long story short, bulk email is complicated and unless you are using a dedicated bulk (not transactional) service it will not work well in the long run so we’re focusing our efforts on a single provider for now.
