What service do you use to send emails from your self hosted apps? I haven't been having luck getting approved. (alien.top)

How are people sending emails from their self hosted apps? I Thought MailSender would be good but i guess not. Im about to try SendPulse now. Why isnt there a service that doesnt care what you do with your emails as long as you only sending max a few emails a day?

Any privacy implications with this method?

All the same privacy implications of using gmail in general. Although for service-related notifications I would think the implications are far lower than using gmail for regular communication.
