Connect your email using SMTP with Resend
Resend requires an MX record to be added to your DNS. You will need to read their guide to ensure it won't interfere with your other email providers. If you are concerned about this, please use the SendGrid or Postmark SMTP methods which do not require MX records. Read their guide - Will Resend's MX record cause conflict with my email settings?
Resend is very fast and easy to set up, but it does require adding an MX record to your domain DNS. If you already have an email platform configured on your domain, read their guide to check to see if it will cause conflict. If so, use SendGrid or Postmark SMTP.
