need fedi administration help

im wanting to make my akkoma server more accessible to more people, but to do that, i need the mailer to work so the server can send emails for password resets and such

does anyone have experience with getting the akkoma mailer to work with a mailing service and is willing to help me get it online? i ideally want to spend next to nothing on the email account ($5/month or less) and want low friction and low maintenance

boost for visibility

EDIT: i solved this by using mailbox.org and smtp
