    Thanks for doing this! Though I'm a SendGrid user I was able to follow along and get it setup using the Post SMTP plugin and WS Form. This was a lifesaver!

    Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge. I’ve been using gmail until now but will 100% be using Postmark, this looks so simple and stress free 😅 One silly question please….if I’m adding a client to my Postmark account, am I right to presume that I will need to add the sender signature DKIM and Return Path records for their domain to their DNS before I can then create a folder/server for them?

      You don't _have to_ do it in that order, but you won't have an API to connect them until you create the sever.

    Does Fluent SMTP also allow you to not have to have a real email address as long as its linked to your domain?

    • @TheAdminBar

      Fluent SMTP is **not** an SMTP service - it's a SMTP **SERVICE** that can facilitate that. Fluent just connects you to a service.

    Funny, seems like DMARC monitoring is not a free service as suggested on the video, rather than a paid addon.

      @brickslabel True, I was also checking from my mobile phone, the "Compare to free version" wasn't visible at all. Thank you.
