Brett, 8:57 where you got stuck is where i got stuck. and because of your sharing your revelation i finally make resend work on my website!! Thank you so much!! Intelligent and handsome life saver!!
I spent all day deciding between Resend and Postmark. The Resend free tier is a lot more generous, but Postmark seems more established. Another great video learning a lot from your series.
Pardon me, but for your Contact Form use case, shouldn't the from & to be reversed? Anyone should be able to send you an email. so you should take the "from" from the POST body where as the "to" is always fixed. Thanks!
Exactly! I was confused for 10 mins straight, thinking if I was trippin or maybe I had a fault logic in my head in regards to how the Resend API works! Thanks for pointing this out :)
you can use it on localhost with their email as the sender onboarding@resend.dev. But you do need a domain and you get one free domain on the free plan.
When are you sending the email to yourself ? Shouldn't u email the actual message the user typed in the form to yourself first before you send the emailer thank you ? email to & from logic doesn't seem right to me. The video is great but i think this doesn't represents a real world scenario or correct me if i'm wrong!
Hey Brett, is resend only available in certain countries? I've set everything up correctly, verified my domain successfully, but I'm getting an error message saying "The domain is not verified" even though it appears to be verified on the resend dashboard. I'm in South Africa and I set my region as North Virginia as it's all that was available, would this likely be the issue?
Hello Brett! If you choose a domain region in America while being in the EU, you'll still be able to use your domain? Or the fees might vary based on the region you select? It appears that for the EU region, there's a $20 charge. However, the use of your domain shouldn't be affected by your geographical location, or so you should still be able to use it to send emails with your chosen domain? In that case, perhaps using SMTPJS is the best solution.
Hey man! I had a particular question about setting this up and using Firebase hosting, running into a couple of problems. Went to your calendly link and it gave me a 404 error, I thought you'd want to know.
yes you can but use their test email to send it. Which is onboarding@resend.dev. Also, make sure to send it to your email that is associated with the email you signed up with on Resend
