Asked by davidb (74points) October 14th, 2009

I’m building a website that requires an email service. My options are to build one in-house or use an external solution. Can you recommend a few extral email solutions that are affordable and also robust. Thx!

I’m not sure what you mean by “external,” but gmail is free, and I’ve never had an issue with it…

Are you looking for something like authsmtp.com or sendgrid.com ?

If you are building a webpage on your own server it’s probably easiest to set up your own mailer. Iif you’re using PHP or any other scripting language, sending email is really easy, just search the documentation. Most web hosting firms also allow emailing via PHP or similar scritping i think.
