Ash Berlin-Taylor commented on AIRFLOW-1723:
--------------------------------------------
Ah I didn't realise sendgrid uses the same credentials for SMTP as for managing
the account. That is exceedingly... silly.
My concern with supporting sendgrind _in the core_ is if we support sendgrid
then why not Mandril, Amazon SES, Postmark, Zapier, HubSpot, MailJet, ... ,...
etc.
I would personally much rather the mail backend is pluggable and then things
could live outside of airflow itself (as just python modules).
Note: I am not a core maintainer so other's might not share my view.
