EmailConnect
EU-hosted inbound email to webhook service.
EmailConnect is an EU-operated inbound email service that turns aliases and custom domains into structured webhook endpoints. It emphasizes GDPR-sensitive workflows, webhook signing, spam filtering, attachment handling, and EU data residency.
Judged purely as an API. What the request contract guarantees on retry, how complete the webhook event coverage is, whether suppressions are readable and writable programmatically, and how much the message log retains when something needs debugging in production.
Against high-frequency programmatic sends where a missed delivery is a product failure, EmailConnect covers webhook coverage and event stream, and does not cover idempotency keys, the suppressions API, batch sending, and SDK breadth. Whether that gap matters depends on how central those are to the build.
