Brevo SMTP checklist before production
A focused checklist for founders configuring Brevo SMTP relay before sending checkout receipts, digital delivery links, or other transactional email.
Email checks
- Use the Brevo SMTP relay host and a production sender address on the project domain.
- Keep the SMTP login and password in environment variables or secret storage, never in source code.
- Verify SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for the sender domain before relying on production delivery.
- Send one transactional test email and inspect inbox placement plus received message headers.
Free helpers
