This is a weird one. I have my instance in a vps that blocks smtp and all it's alternative and secure ports. Is there anyway for me to get smtp out of here? Id have to fiddle with Lemmy's functions. I imagine an API or something. Anyone have experience with this?
Does your vps provider block outbound smtp to port 465/587? Usually providers only block port 25 outbound so that the vps can't send mail directly to a server (and can't host incoming mail). I haven't seen many providers block smtp altogether.
If that's the case though, services like sendgrid do offer http apis. I'm not sure if there's any sort of smtp-to-http relay bridge, but I wouldn't be surprised if there is one. Otherwise Lemmy would have to support the specific api to send e-mails through.
