  • docker-postfix

    Simple SMTP server / postfix null relay host for your Docker and Kubernetes containers. Based on Alpine Linux.

    • I tried using this container and following the instructions to setup Gmail OAuth (https://github.com/bokysan/docker-postfix) but have been unable to make it work so far. I actually have an open issue there with what I've tried so far ( Unable to send - Gmail OAuth · Issue #117 · bokysan/docker-postfix (github.com) )

  • mailrise

    An SMTP gateway for Apprise notifications.

    • The following projects, Mailrise and Apprise, on Github look like a better solution for method #4 than my Exim4 install and one-off script.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
