Using Arborgold Email provider or Company-Owned SendGrid for one-off Emails
With Google/Gmail discontinuing its standard SMTP setup starting March 14th, these configurations ensure that you can continue sending individual emails without interruption. Whether you use your company’s SendGrid account or Arborgold’s, this setup provides a reliable fail-safe solution while we work on finalizing the OAuth integration for a more permanent and secure connection.
