Don't know if you missed that.

Yeah and that's the cheap end of that kind of thing it seems, most in that range seem to be more.
Still you have to compare that to the cost of paying someone to maintain an email server, manage the logs, mange staying off blacklists, etc etc.
But for that much money I shouldn't have to babysit a service, it should knock my socks off.

I already have my own sendmail server to send emails through, but having to deal with the bounces and tune the configuration to maximize the emails sent isn't something I want to bother with.

Heh.. it's funny, people have to click through an agreement TWICE, and download and install an application which is clearly described as having email as its only interface, and have an unsubscribe link in every email that's sent out and have the emails sent out from "noreply@whatever" and people STILL reply and complain to be removed.
"Please remove me" they email back while a few lines below it clearly says "to be removed please go to this URL", all the while the app they downloaded is still happily running on their phone sending information.
People truly are dumb.
