Seamlessly route all emails generated by your website through a bevy of third-party transactional email services, all using their HTTP APIs.
Let your site’s email get sent by the pros! Escort seamlessly routes all emails generated by your site through a bevy of third-party transactional email services, all using their HTTP APIs. This prevents issues endemic to sending email via PHP’s mail() function on your server - namely delayed sending and your emails being flagged as spam.
Escort currently supports MailGun, Mandrill, PostageApp, Postmark, SendGrid, and SparkPost. Want extra assurance? Escort supports failover from one service to the next - activate multiple services to ensure that if one service fails for any reason, the next in line will be used to send your email. If all services fail, ExpressionEngine®’s default mail setup will step-in as a last resort.
Escort is also compatible with any third-party add-on which uses ExpressionEngine®’s Email class to send email - this includes popular add-ons such as Freeform, CartThrob, Expresso Store, Brilliant Retail, and Better Workflow. And yes, it supports attachments as well.
Although all of these services offer an SMTP option which you can use in ExpressionEngine® without an add-on, many web servers don’t support sending SMTP email, and most of these services recommend using their HTTP APIs over using their SMTP servers.
