Push e-mails notification should be added

andrpet commented 8 years ago

More details are needed for this issue. Eg.

vitsca commented 7 years ago

Also, another important issue here, as pointed by Luca, is the mail server.. we cannot (can we) host a SMTP mailer, .. nor we can devote to Google (who has limits on automatic emails).. providers that charge it are available, though.. (@LucaVicidomini)

Moved to the project Architecture.. @lucavicidomini can provide more details (here) on the providers for email? thanks

Yes, we are currently using GMail via SMTP protocol. GMail states that the limit is 2000 email sent per day: it may seem a lot, but I actually hit that limit a lot of times before on another project. I suspect that GMail suspends an SMTP account if it tries to send few mails simultaneously, and it's a very likely occurrence since sending a mail through SMTP (at least with Google) takes several seconds to complete.

Here there are few services that can be evaluated: https://sendgrid.com, http://mailgun.com/, http://mailjet.com/, https://aws.amazon.com/ses/, https://elasticemail.com/... actually this list can grow indefinitely, one can just Google email api.

Amazon offers 0.10 us $ x 1000 messages. Assume 10000 msgs x day (wow). 30$ x month is acceptable. We must only find how to pay Amazon 😀
