Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/anonaddy/anonaddy/issues/184
Hosting lots of applications, I find myself needing to input SMTP details to allow a hosted service to send emails. I can use the SMTP details of my email client to send emails but I can't make the emails appear as if an alias is sending the email.
It would be much more convenient to be able to send emails and have them appear to be from an alias by using SMTP details provided by an instance of Anonaddy.
Sorry if I explained this poorly, I can clarify if needed.
@willbrowningme commented on GitHub (Aug 27, 2021):
Do you mean you'd like SMTP details for AnonAddy e.g.
Server: mail.anonaddy.me
Encryption: TLS/SSL
Username: xyz
Password: xyz
Port: 465 (SSL) or 587 (TLS)
I do not currently have any plans to implement this I'm afraid as it would mean adding something like Dovecot as a submission agent (MSA) and adding auth support and I don't see the benefits it would provide. AnonAddy is a forwarding service and not a service for sending out bulk mail.
@Coderdude112 commented on GitHub (Aug 28, 2021):
Umm yea?
Is this the same with a self hosted instance but with the server domain different?
@willbrowningme commented on GitHub (Sep 6, 2021):
You could add this feature to your own self-hosted instance but you would need to find instructions on how to do so elsewhere e.g. https://www.linuxbabe.com/mail-server/secure-email-server-ubuntu-postfix-dovecot

I would love SMTP support for Anonaddy! I do email newsletters that I send to friends and family and right now I have to use a gmail address, but I'd rather have it come from my official domain to look nicer.

I hope this comment isn't spam, I just wanted to respond to the statement "I don't see the benefits it would provide" as I considered the SaaS product and decided against it. I wanted to set up forwarding for a vanity address on a custom domain. Using the alias+destination=example.com@custom.domain aliases would be tricky in the Gmail UI, but setting up SMTP (with the 20 sends/day limit on the lite account) would be ideal. As I'm not self-hosting, I chose the following workaround (I've not seen this recommended elsewhere):
I fully understand that adding SMTP would be scope creep for a product that is currently simple and easy, so this comment is more to help others in the same situation than to reopen the feature request.
