This repository contains a sample email sending REST server with a web app.
The server documentation can be found in the server directory.
The web app documentation can be found in the www directory.
The project is currently deployed here and supports sending plain text emails.
- Emails sent using text not html.
- All emails sent (in the current setup) from my personal email - please don’t abuse.
- Some rejections (e.g. Maligun) can take up to a few minutes to arrive through the webhook (patience advised).
- Mandrill sometimes confirms email send even though the address is incorrect (validation explained below). So it is possible to get a sent confirmation even though the email does not get send in this case.
- Email body is not cleaned on purpose on form submission. In case user sends to a wrong address or something else go wrong, retyping the whole body could be frustrating.
- Users are identified using a simple secret cookie mechanism.
