Might even make sense as an add-on app for Cloudron's mail services to monitor deliverability, bounces, spam marking, etc.

Are you using AWS SES? I've been rug pulled by them multiple times. And i did not mess with any spam. Screw SES.

This appears to just be an SES wrapper?

Correct. It's an alternative to Amazon SES Mail Manager, the paid upsell thing they push. Still uses Amazon SES for sending.

Can't comment on your account issue. Not had an issues myself.

Of course, nice to have alts for sending email, like Cloudron's self-hosted sendmail for smallscale, but email sending is as complex as big-tech wants it to be, so in many cases you have to use them.

The closest to freedom we can have is in having alts for everything. Lots of Alts for Amazon SES, too, but they are all other people's infrastructure.
