Semi-related: If you are in the market for an email provider for transactional emails, I encourage you to use Postmark. It's a developer focused company with a simple pricing model and great documentation, and their IPs tend to have great reputation scores. I don't work for them, but I switched from one of these two and am very happy I did.

Last I checked they were still lacking automatic DKIM rotation. Has that been fixed? Mailgun was too fwiw.

Sendgrid and Sparkpost are the only two I know of doing this correctly at the moment.

Second this. Postmark is hands down one of the best developer products I've ever come across (on par with Stripe in terms of quality).

Yep, used them for inbound/outbound processing and they are pretty flawless.

Over time I learned to prefer European B2B tech companies, because they strive to be profitable from the beginning, take less VC money, are more stable, predictable, cost-conscious, engineering-focused, and, therefore, often much less likely to be acquired: Adyen, MessageBird, KeyCDN, OVH, Hetzner, INWX, Mailbox. It's a bit sad to take Mailjet out of this list, even if it's considered a success for the company.
