So much for CAPTCHA then – bots can complete them quicker than humans
What about proof of work based CAPTCHA like https://github.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha ? Since CAPTCHAs can be solved by bots, at least make it more costly for them.

Google's reCAPTCHA likely illegal in Europe?
That should only be an issue if the server is under attack.
According to the docs (https://github.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha/blob/master/docs/CONFIG...), you can set three difficulty levels:
MCAPTCHA_CAPTCHA_AVG_TRAFFIC_DIFFICULTY
MCAPTCHA_CAPTCHA_PEAK_TRAFFIC_DIFFICULTY

How to send bulk/mass email – software for hosting your own email web server
When I searched for this I had a very hard time finding a right answer because all the results were SEO blogs advertising their newsletter services (Mailchimp, Convertkit, etc.), which is not the same thing.
So I wrote this overview covering all the options I found. Additional input is welcome.
Even though Listmonk seems like the best free & open source option, there aren't many guides for it and the documentation is quite limited. So [I've been having trouble getting it running on a CentOS server](https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/issues/1004#issuecomment-1...).
It's a shame that it seems to be used by thousands of people but almost no one bothers to create guides or improve the docs.
