Title: External SMTP with Bluehost
Post by: Gus on October 20, 2016, 07:51:16 AM
Hi

my RC setup is currently working fine with my host Bluehost. The problem is Bluehost is typically reported on Spam IP lists ever few weeks.
So i thought i could simply use Sendgrid or similar as an external SMTP for handling outgoing email.

But Bluehost dont allow external SMTP connections - they force users to use localhost SMTP because of spammers - ironic i know.

However Sendgrid allow API connections aswell as SMTP for processing outgoing email.

Does RC have support for sending mail over an API ? or is only SMTP.

cheers
Gus

Not by default, you could probably code something with the plugin api that would do that, maybe with the message_before_send hook.
