I've got 60 so far. Unfortunately came to this thread late, so I'm not how much longer it will have traffic.

Haven't heard from any ESPs yet, but will reach out to them tomorrow.

Hi - Eric from SendGrid here. Our CEO Sameer just greenlit a 10% discount for former Mandrill customers. We're working on a set of tools for automatic migration - but we wanted to get a prompt response out too:

Hi Eric.

We used sendgrid in the past and had a great experience. If we were sending less than 100k per month we would switch to Sendgrid in a heartbeat.

But (maybe i am understanding them wrong) your pricing tiers for higher levels doesn't make sense to me.

We send around 300k emails and it would be much more expensive.

Care to at least try and explain that ? (I hope that u ll say something like no you are reading this wrong)
