Email without Sendgrid -- Just SMTP #1

Hi,

Thanks for the script. It's the simplest thing I could find for Porkbun without adding another service to my required chain.

However, Sendgrid is yet another service I have to sign up for just to have my own domain with a dynamic IP. In addition you have to sign up for Twillio. Not only that but when I tried the site put me through a series of hoops that apparently are too difficult for me because they won't let me log in to get the API key. REDICULOUS! I know nothing about Powershell. Could you possibly modify the script to include normal SMTP outgoing options, please? Most grateful!

If there is no option that doesn't expose the password in plain text, maybe a popup-notification-option instead?

Hello,

All you need is the free SendGrid account for developers that gives you 100 emails a day. No need to do Twilio and you will have access to the API keys. Normal SMTP will probably get blocked due to DMARC enforcement so that really isn't a viable solution these days.
