Transactional Email for Laravel

Among 19 makers' products we track that are built with Laravel, here's what they chose for transactional email — each counted from a live-product source.

Transactional or marketing. Transactional services send one message the moment your app triggers it (a password reset, a receipt). Marketing/lifecycle tools send sequences and campaigns to lists. Most apps need the first on day one and the second later.
