CloudMailin
Long-running inbound email to HTTP service.
CloudMailin has been doing inbound email to HTTP since 2010. Reliable, no-frills, JSON or raw MIME delivery.
At an early stage the deciding factors are what the free tier actually covers, what the first paid invoice looks like, and how much of a founding engineer's week the setup costs. Feature depth that only matters at a million sends a month is noise until it is not.
Against a waitlist, a launch announcement, onboarding email, and the first transactional sends, CloudMailin covers developer experience and webhook coverage, and does not cover scheduling and SDK breadth. Whether that gap matters depends on how central those are to the build.
