Hey, Danish here 👋 This is Maillayer v2.0, a self-hosted Mailchimp alternative that’s truly yours. I built it because email marketing shouldn’t cost hundreds every month or restrict you to one domain. With Maillayer, you buy once, host yourself, and send unlimited emails forever, powered by Amazon SES at just $0.10 per 1,000 emails. When running my projects like Iconbuddy and SuperDevPro, I struggled to find a tool that was affordable, flexible, and privacy-friendly. Most platforms charged per contact or domain, so I built Maillayer for founders, marketers, and indie teams who want full control over their email infrastructure without recurring costs. Today, over 200 teams use Maillayer to send newsletters, transactional emails, and automations with a clean dashboard and powerful features: 📨 Email Campaigns 🌍 Geographic Insights 👥 Contact Management 🔗 Integrations 🌐 Custom Domain ⚙️ AWS Powered 🧩 Template Editor 📊 Event Tracking ✅ Brand Verification 📈 Performance Stats 🎨 Custom Branding 📦 Bulk Operations ⏱️ Real-time Analytics 📁 Multi-file Upload 🔥 Domain Warmup 💌 Transactional API 🗓️ Post Scheduler 🔄 Auto-Sync List If you’ve ever felt trapped by subscriptions or platform lock-ins, you’ll love Maillayer. Check it out at maillayer.com 💌

 does it support a/b testing framework?

   my guess is it could through the API.

That would be cool

 How do you handle deliverability and spam filtering with Maillayer to ensure high email performance?🤔

Been a very early user of Maillayer and have used it on multiple clients so far.

excited for the v2 launch

Good luck with the launch Mohd!

I've been an early customer of Maillayer, and I love the product (especially the v2 launch). The best self-hosted email solution!

Maker

 Thanks Jim for supporting from day 1.

The best thing: self-hosted!

Great work man!

Maker

 Thanks Csaba. I really appreciate your support and feedbacks.

I love the fact that this is self-hosted with a one-time fee! Is it also open-source?

Maker

 No this is not open source.

This looks promising, I should try it asap.

Maker

 Def you have to get this and try. let me know if you need any help to setup.

Hi there, congratulations on the launch 🔥

From your experience how good is delivery rate? I know that Amazon SES is used to send only transactional emails, but it is not that good at sending newsletter emails, because delivery rate is super low.

Maker

 Hi, this is a good question.

maillayer send emails based on the aws sending limit. ex: your aws account have 14 email/sec. so maillyaer send 10 email per sec to avoid get emails into spam and get good delivery. based on my 2 years experience I got 30 - 62% open rate.

And we have a feature called domain warmup where you can do like send 50 emails each day and gradually increase that by day.

 That's a good open rate 🤔 Makes sense, thanks for explanation!

For now I am using zoho zeptomail for transactional emails and postmarkapp for newsletter, but main reason was that I couldn't get approval from AWS, they just didn't approve my SES account 😁

Anyway, wishing you a good luck! Love self-hosted projects and building self-hosted project as well

Maker

 We can connect and can try again and gets your account approved. Let me know if you are ok with that.

ex: your aws account have 14 email/sec. so maillyaer send 10 email per sec

Wow Great! The rate is automatically configured, right?

Maker

 That is based on aws account and you can also customize in the dashboard.

This look great.
