@outofcontrol @Mirk0dex @mwl So... That misses a few points. If I were Ok with AWS handling my outbound email, I'd probably just be leaving everything as-is, which is having google handle it for me.

I'm bailing on google because it's the enshittocene, and I want as few proprietary layers (especially big tech controlled) in my infrastructure as possible.

(I'm a professional SRE, and I have run a lot of infra on AWS. I know what their services do.)
