Email might return $36 for every $1 spent, but most startups still blast everyone on the same shared IP and wonder why password resets land in spam. This walks you through the infrastructure decisions that actually matter: separating transactional from marketing sends, getting SPF/DKIM/DMARC records right before launch, processing bounce webhooks so dead addresses don't tank your reputation, and building preference centers that keep you legal. The React Email patterns and queue-based retry logic are solid starting points.
