I am using Mailkit Idle Client to receive email in real-time from one email account. It's OK.
Is it possible to do it with many accounts?
Thanks
Yes, it's possible - you would just need to have 1 ImapClient (and IdleClient) per account.

I'd like to send emails programmatically via SendGrid (from admin#mydomain.example.com), but have replies to that email come to my Google Workspaces inbox for admin#mydomain.example.com). I would then like to reply to the customer from Google Workspaces.
The closest question related to this I could find is Setup | G Suite + Sendgrid for transactional email, but that was a fairly different use-case.
So in my usecase, emails to the customer would come from admin#mydomain.example.com via EITHER SendGrid or Google Workspaces.
Here's a article from MailGun that talks about a similiar pattern
My questions:
Will this result in deliverability issues, having emails sometimes come with different signing keys/domains? I don't understand email signing particularly well.
Is there anyway to have replies to the email address go to BOTH SendGrid and Google Workspaces, so I'll have it in my inbox but can also get it posted to a webhook by SendGrid? I think the answer is no, but figured I'd ask.
Any other considerations I should keep in mind for this strategy? Is this a poor idea for some reason?
Thanks!
Yes, this will result in deliverability issues. You should use the same domain for both sending and receiving.
No, you can't have replies go to both. You can have replies go to a webhook, but you can't have them go to both a webhook and a mailbox.
Final consideration: This is a poor idea. You should use the same domain for both sending and receiving. If you want to use SendGrid, you should use SendGrid for both sending and receiving. If you want to use Google Workspaces, you should use Google Workspaces for both sending and receiving. You can't use both at the same time.
Another consideration: If you're sending a lot of emails, you might get flagged as a spammer if you're sending from multiple domains.
The company I work for does something similar that might be helpful for your scenario.
We have a number of systems that send emails via SendGrid e.g. Auth0, Salesforce, various bespoke systems, etc. Some of these use native integrations to SendGrid, some use SMTP relaying, and others send emails programatically via the SendGrid API.
We've implemented sender auth (i.e. DKIM) in SendGrid for our domain e.g. mydomain.example.com, but we don't handle replies in SendGrid as we want replies to go to a different system - specifically our contact center system (which is the main systems our help desk staff use). Help desk staff would then reply to emails from within the contact center system. Note: we needed to configure DKIM for both SendGrid as well as the contact center system (as both currently send emails from mydomain.example.com), but in the future the intent was to implement a SMTP relay in the contact center system (to SendGrid) so that all sending goes through SendGrid.
I'm a bit fuzzy on the fine-grained implementation details of how we handle replies, but essentially we point the (single) MX record for mydomain.example.com to a third-party email protection system which scans the emails and forwards them to Office 365 mailboxes which subsequently forwards them to our contact centre system. I believe Office 365 is really only there for email posterity. AFAIK you should be able to point the MX record to anything that can handle SMTP.
In your scenario you should be able to configure the MX record for the mydomain.example.com domain to point at your Google Workspaces. This will allow you to send emails from SendGrid and use Google Workspaces to handle the sending and receiving of replies.
Not sure if you can configure SMTP relaying in Google Workspaces (i.e. to relay through SendGrid), but this would mean you'd only need to configure DKIM for SendGrid. All emails would be sent by SendGrid and replies would be go to Google Workspaces.
I want to send mass email with GMail API.
Currently I add all the addresses at the To section.
But every recipient should receive the mail and see only his address and not the other ones. Is there a method/API that I can use for this?
As far as I know, Gmail was not created for sending bulk emails as it restricts the number of recipients and has tons of other limitations. You should try to use third-party service for this.
Here you can find Gmail API limitation. It says
100 Recipients per message sent via SMTP (by POP or IMAP users) or the Gmail API
Hey all thanks in advance for the look.
We are attempting to develop a drip campaign email platform. For each "drip"we need to detect if the recipient replied to the email.
If so we would like discontinue the following drips.
For this we need some sort of reply detection but everything I have seen about tracking email metrics online is related to bounce rate and open rate.
Not much available on reply rate in terms of how to build such functionality.
Preferably we would like to do this on Amazon SES but if there is no such option we are willing to look at other smtp providers.
Perhaps there is some unique header we can save with the outbound email, then check against all the inbox emails. I guess this relates to how do email clients know to thread emails - perhaps it's a similar process.
Yes, you can fetch/read the email replies.
For that you will have to create 'Rule Sets' within the 'Email Receiving section' of SES.
The replies can be redirected to services like S3, SNS,Lambda, workmail to name a few and then you can read those from that redirected service
I have google app for sending email on behalf of my domain. It’s a free google app account where I have 50 users in it.
The problem is that the users are having issue receiving the emails, emails get delayed sometime we don’t receive the email at all.
I have checked the spam folder no trace of any emails.
Because of this we miss most of our important emails. So I there a way to know why the emails get delayed or not received or how can I contact google(gmail) in this regards for support.
I've been using the same service for a looooong time and no problems whatsoever.
I would bet the problem is either on your registrar or hosting.
Login to your registrar, and check the nameservers(!!!) and dns records.
I've a domain and I've successfully configured Email service via Google Apps.
I've created 5 email accounts too.
Now I want to track all the incoming/ outgoing emails.
Is there any way, if any person(among those 5 persons), sends or receives an email, I want a copy of that email in my inbox too automatically.
Thanks in advance.
You can use GAM and Audit monitors to get a copy of a users mail sent and received. You'll also see Chats and Draft messages with an email monitor:

This feature requires Google Apps for Business or Education.

I am not sure you can receive a copy in another account but you can configure each of the accounts to delegate access to your account so that you can view their sent/received messages. It is more manual than you would like however.

The best way to do that with out going into the GAM and use the audit, is to configure mail forwarding for each email by going into the gmail account interface.
Another solution that can be used, is to create an external gmail email, and use the google apps email routing to send all the emails to the external one.
On the external one you can just do what ever you want with the email, such as filtering by receiver and forwarding it to your selected destination.
Hope my answer helped a bit.
