## Direct Answer
Use Postmark for email delivery and Mailrith for the marketing workflow around it: subscribers, forms, broadcasts, sequences, automations, and reports.

- Keep Postmark as the sending provider you already trust.
- Use Mailrith to collect subscribers and decide who should receive each email.
- Keep provider setup, limits, and delivery events visible instead of hidden inside a bundled tool.

## Postmark Handles Sending, But You Still Need A Marketing Workflow
A delivery connection is only one part of email marketing. You still need a clean place to collect subscribers, organize them, write campaigns, automate follow-up, and stop emailing people who should not receive more mail.

- **Sender Setup Is Separate:** Create or choose the right Postmark server and use a Broadcast Message Stream for one-to-many marketing email.
- **Subscriber Work Has To Live Somewhere:** Forms, landing pages, tags, custom fields, segments, unsubscribes, and imports need a clear home.
- **Provider Limits Still Matter:** Your provider can still have sending limits, approval rules, domain requirements, and policy checks.

## Why Mailrith Works Well With Postmark
Mailrith lets you keep the provider you chose while giving the email marketing work a friendly app layer.

- **One Subscriber Workflow:** Manage subscribers, tags, fields, forms, landing pages, broadcasts, sequences, and automations in Mailrith.
- **Visible Delivery Provider:** Your Postmark account stays responsible for the send, so provider setup and delivery feedback stay visible.
- **Provider Freedom:** If your needs change later, the marketing workflow can stay in Mailrith while the delivery connection changes.

## What You Can Build With Mailrith And Postmark
The usual setup is simple: Mailrith owns the marketing workflow, and the delivery provider sends the email.

1. Create or choose the right Postmark server and use a Broadcast Message Stream for one-to-many marketing email.
2. Create a Mailrith email delivery connection for Postmark.
3. Add Postmark webhooks so bounces, complaints, and delivery events can come back into Mailrith.
4. Create a hosted form or landing page and tag new subscribers by source or interest.
5. Send the first broadcast or sequence to a small, engaged segment before increasing volume.

## The Simple Cost Logic
Mailrith charges for the marketing software. Postmark remains your delivery provider and handles its own sending costs, limits, and account rules. That split makes the app cost and sending cost easier to understand.

## Estimated Postmark Sending Cost
Use this as a quick estimate of what Postmark may charge to send 1,000, 10,000, 50,000, and 100,000 emails in a month.

| Monthly Sends | Provider Cost | How To Read It |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1,000 emails / month | From $15/mo | The free tier is for testing. The lowest paid plan starts at 10,000 emails. |
| 10,000 emails / month | From $15/mo | Basic starts at 10,000 emails per month. |
| 50,000 emails / month | About $66/mo | Estimated from the Platform plan plus its public extra-email rate. |
| 100,000 emails / month | About $126/mo | Estimated from the Platform plan plus its public extra-email rate. |

## What To Be Honest About
- **Postmark Still Needs Care:** Postmark is careful about separating transactional and broadcast email, so do not send newsletters through a transactional stream.
- **Deliverability Is Shared Work:** Mailrith gives the workflow, but inbox results still depend on permission, sender setup, list quality, content, sending pace, and recipient behavior.

## Who This Helps
- You already use Postmark, or you want to use it as the delivery provider for marketing email.
- You want hosted email marketing software instead of building forms, lists, campaigns, unsubscribes, and reports yourself.
- You want to keep software pricing and delivery-provider costs separate.

## When Another Tool May Fit Better
- You want a full newsletter publishing network, or you prefer to manage marketing campaigns entirely inside Postmark.
- You do not want to manage sender setup, provider credentials, domain authentication, or delivery feedback.
- You want one vendor to own the email app, sending infrastructure, deliverability support, and billing together.

## What To Check Before Using Postmark
- **Sender Setup:** Create or choose the right Postmark server and use a Broadcast Message Stream for one-to-many marketing email.
- **Credentials:** Create credentials for the Mailrith connection and keep them limited to the access Mailrith needs.
- **Event Feedback:** Add Postmark webhooks so bounces, complaints, and delivery events can come back into Mailrith.
- **First Send Plan:** Start with a smaller engaged segment, then increase volume only when bounces, complaints, and unsubscribes look healthy.

## Common Mistakes To Avoid With Postmark
- **Using The Transactional Stream For Broadcasts:** Newsletters, product updates, and promotions should use the right broadcast setup instead of borrowing the stream used for password resets or receipts.
- **Skipping The Test Send:** Send a test through the same delivery connection you will use for the real campaign, not through a separate inbox.
- **Ignoring Provider Limits:** Check account approval, send rate, daily limits, domain status, and policy rules before planning a launch.

## How Mailrith Fits
Mailrith gives Postmark a practical marketing layer: subscribers, fields, tags, segments, forms, landing pages, broadcasts, sequences, automations, and reporting.

- Create a workspace for the brand, product, or client that will send through Postmark.
- Use Mailrith forms and landing pages to collect subscribers before sending.
- Send broadcasts and sequences through the Postmark connection you control.
- Keep the marketing workflow separate from provider quotas, limits, and delivery billing.

## Decision Table
| Criteria | Mailrith | Other Common Approach |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Delivery Control | Mailrith lets Postmark stay visible as the delivery provider, so you can track software and sending costs separately. | A bundled email platform may be easier to start with, but the sender is usually less visible. |
| Subscriber Workflow | Mailrith manages subscribers, tags, fields, segments, forms, landing pages, campaigns, and automations. | Using only a delivery provider may leave you building or stitching together the marketing workflow. |
| Provider Limits | Your Postmark setup, account rules, domain status, and sending limits still matter. | A managed platform may hide more of this work, which can help until you need to debug delivery. |
| Best Fit | Postmark is a strong fit when you already trust its delivery and want a clear split between transactional and marketing traffic. | Teams that want one platform to manage every sending and marketing decision may prefer an all-in-one tool. |
