smtp (duh), but it actually just seems to be a very old version of lettre. Could you maybe add a note to the crates.io page pointing potential users to lettre?
🤔 my Matrix client didn't get the notification, fortunately Gitter notifies you by email every once in a while.
I think this is a good idea xiretza , I just searched "SMTP" on crates.io and lettre is on the second page Alexis Mousset. We should probably do a new release of the SMTP crate with both the description and readme telling to use lettre instead

In that case adding DKIM could be something useful. But other than that, it should be something done by the sending-server
I disagree that DKIM should always be done by the sending-server. Right now getting a "clean" IP is very hard and it is very useful to pay someone for a trusted IP (and maybe some other sending features). However I would rather not trust them to be able to sign messages on be behalf.
For my currently use case I plan on migrating to signing in my app then sending to a relay mostly for their trusted IP.
Eventually I do plan on migrating to direct-sending but I don't have enough domain reputation or a trusted enough IP yet.
That is true. It also depends on the receiving mailserver and what they do. Rumour has it that Google and other big inbox providers value domain reputation more however for smaller providers they likely have never seen your domain so basically have no choice but IP rep.
But this is mostly beside the point. The point is that I would rather not give a relay the ability to sign mail on my behalf. So signing is helpful even if you are using a relay.
