New in ((Tiki24))
Leveraging [https://packagist.org/packages/slm/mail|SlmMail], Tiki can now send transactional emails (Password reset, notification of a wiki page update, etc.) via services such as:
* [http://www.mailgun.com|Mailgun]
* [https://postmarkapp.com|Postmark]
* [http://postageapp.com|Postage]
* [http://sendgrid.com|Send Grid]
* [http://sparkpost.com|Spark Post]
* [http://aws.amazon.com/ses|Amazon SES]
* and others...
!! Why?
Because sending emails via Tiki (sendmail) or ((SMTP)) can cause issues: Limits on numbers of emails sent, slow delivery, lost emails, mails flagged as spam, etc. Basically because there is so much spam, legitimate projects suffer. The good news is that many services offer free to use entry level services (To promote the service so you upgrade to paid service as your needs grow). The bad news is a loss of data privacy.
