I write an administer a web app for a non-profit which runs on the free level of Heroku's service since they don't have the budget for more.
One of the features they need is a way to send emails to all ~300 volunteers to make announcements. To protect volunteer privacy, my approach was to implement these announcements via BCC addressing. However, I ran into something strange: when sending the emails with Rails' ActionMailer via SendGrid, the addresses were left intact in the BCC header received by recipients; something I've never seen before. I followed up with SendGrid support and their response was to use their (SendGrid-specific) API. I'd rather keep using ActionMailer since it makes it easier to switch email addons (which I've had to to once already when Mandrill discontinued their free level). Any thoughts about what might be going on here, or suggestions for Heroku email addons which work correctly with BCC addressing via ActionMailer? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
