mailrise VS cronsim

Edit: Using AWS SES for now (PITA to setup though) and will setup https://github.com/YoRyan/mailrise as suggested below once I get my full systems back up. After the suggestions and testing, the hardest hurdle was having a VoIP number rather than regular Cell and using without a custom domain (and even different providers handle this differently). Using an email service seems to be one of the easiest methods to use, just have to make sure they allow SMTP access on the free tier. Hopefully the comments on this thread will help other in the future or give them alternative ideas. Thanks all!

I use mailrise which hosts a private SMTP gateway for Apprise notifications.

https://github.com/YoRyan/mailrise might be a decent option.

This project is similar to and inspired by Mailrise. I wanted a little more configuration than was supported by Mailrise, so decided to create my own option.

FYI, a similar system can be achieved with https://github.com/YoRyan/mailrise + https://github.com/caronc/apprise, but requires more setup

I ended up having to build mailrise from source so I could change it to use the nightly build of apprise instead of version 1.1 (which still had the bug). I actually just went back and tested that apprise 1.2 seems to be splitting both markdown and text messages properly for discord. I'll have to build an updated mailrise docker image and try again there. I'll file an issue if I run into problems.

I've also written one: https://github.com/cuu508/cronsim

I do also value simplicity and compactness, and try hard to limit the number of dependencies the project uses. If you look at requirements.txt, there are relatively few direct dependencies. When I add or upgrade dependencies, I also check what the code quality looks like, how active is the maintainer, what unresolved issues the project has, and so on. For example, I did a bunch of testing on croniter, which resulted in a number of filed issues, PRs from me, and, ultimately, my reimplementation of the library. Of course I cannot guarantee there are no vulnerabilities in the dependencies.
