Guys is this thing possible?

I have a legacy Google Apps (now aka Google Suite) for my forum domain.

Can I somehow set up that BULK MAIL sent by IPS software be handled and send by google's email servers instead of php mail of my VDS server?

I hope email deliverability would be much more greater and have no problems reaching peoples' inboxes.

Any info on that would be appreciated 🙂

You can use SMTP. System > Settings > Email Settings

Change it to "SMTP" and use your google account SMTP settings.

is it truly that easy? wont the google mail to bonkers if I send a blast to 28k people?

That would be something on google's side. I think they batch them in 500 chunks. But that's the only way that I know of to use Google servers instead of PHP.

Yeah I saw that 500 limitation on the google legacy terms page.

so I mean that 500 is the max limit when sending emails in one go. I mean is this the one which IPS has as a default for 50 mails per cycle?

I'm currently using SendGrid's Free tier, which allows 100 emails to be sent - has anyone tried using their Google for Business (e.g., your own custom domain email address) for this?

Any update for this?
