Expose 'send email'-API?

  • background:
    My (wordpress) site is hosted by a serverprovider that allows __internal__ server scripts to send emails freely (via a smtp server _without_ authentication or restrictions). This allows me to send “generated” emails from [email protected], without actually having an email account to that address.

    From outside the hosting company’s server park, one can only access another SMTP server, which has authentication, and restricts access AND email headers to support only _real_ email account’s.

    Recently I’ve developed an application that needs to send generated emails as part of the signup flow, this app is written in node.js and hosted elsewhere, but needs to send emails from [email protected].

    Feature-request:
    If postman exposed a custom API for actually sending emails VIA wordpress, my node-app could deliver the email to be sent via HTTP to my wordpress site. The site would then be able to send it using my server providers internal SMTP server, effectively bypassing the restrictions imposed on the “public” SMTP server.
