platform-compat VS sendgrid-nodejs

DotNet offers the SecureString class to keep a string encrypted in Memory, but as long as the OS does not natively support this concept, the only advantage is that it resides in memory for a shorter time, the disadvantage is that SecureStrings are easier to search for.

Note the KeePass's resistance to the attack mentioned depends on the security of .NET's secure string, which, here's what Microsoft has to say about it (https://github.com/dotnet/platform-compat/blob/master/docs/D...)

As for KeePassXC, last I checked it didn't even bother.

TIL. Looks like the deprecation note recommends MailKit.

Well of course, but it does have to be passed to the module that generates the hashes AD uses in the first place. And as I said, the standard password reset screen is bound to store the password in plain text somewhere as well.

This won’t help you with your question, but I figured I should warn against using send-mailmessage.

points you here.

Some of the reasons for not using Hashtable or other non-generic collection types are outlined here. That's why Microsoft doesn't recommend their usage in new implementations across all of its API documentation.

And if you really want to be secure you need to something better than a SecureString: https://github.com/dotnet/platform-compat/blob/master/docs/DE0001.md

You will need an API key from SendGrid to use this package. You can get one by signing up for a free account at https://sendgrid.com/.

Formspark is a great service for this with a generous free tier. If you end up scaling up and need more and/or advanced transactional emails you may consider an email API like SendGrid, Amazon SES, or Waypoint.

SendGrid. An industry-leading email API with good deliverability and a comprehensive suite of analytics.

Solution: Read on to learn how to build a personal marathon training plan generator Streamlit-hosted app from personal workout data using the Strava API, LangChain agents, chains, few-shot prompt templating, PromptTemplates, OpenAI, and SendGrid. This can also be applied to personal training, nutrition, and more!

Sendgrid, Mailgun, or Postmark are great solutions if you have a need for transactional emails that are technical. I still prefer using Customer.io for this need. If you’re unsure what transactional emails are, check out this guide.

Email is sent via an event. I have a Lambda function triggered off an EventBridge rule in my serverless toolbox that will send an email via SendGrid. This allows me to reuse that functionality across all my projects, once again minimizing the amount of resources I have allocated in the cloud.

SendGrid

You could consider to use some email delivery service like Mailgun or Sendgrid. They offer free tiers and their servers are more accepted than some random self-hosted server.

First let's set up a Sendgrid account. Sendgrid has a free tier that enables 100 free emails a day. So let's sign up at https://sendgrid.com/.
