Open source alternatives to Postmark[005]

Postmark delivers transactional email over SMTP and an API, with per-message tracking, templates and a focus on deliverability. Below are 5 self-hostable open source alternatives, ranked by GitHub popularity.

// EDITOR'S TAKE

useSend is the closest to Postmark's developer experience, an API plus a real delivery dashboard, but it rides on AWS SES so deliverability is Amazon's reputation rather than a curated transactional network. hyvor-relay actually sends the mail itself, which means you own IP warm-up and blocklist trouble, and Plunk is only worth it if you want marketing broadcasts in the same tool.
