If you need bounce and complaint webhooks, the best choice is usually a transactional email service that supports event webhooks for delivery status.
Good options
1) Amazon SES
- Supports bounce and complaint notifications
- Very cost-effective
- Best if you’re comfortable with AWS
- Webhooks can be wired through SNS, SQS, or Lambda
Best for: low cost, scalable infrastructure, AWS users
2) SendGrid
- Has built-in event webhooks including bounces, complaints, delivered, open, click
- Easier to get started than SES
- Good dashboard and tooling
Best for: quick setup, simple webhook integration
3) Mailgun
- Strong support for bounces and complaints
- Good logs and webhook events
- Easy to integrate, especially for transactional mail
Best for: developer-friendly email handling
4) Postmark
- Excellent for transactional email
- Supports bounce and complaint handling
- Very clean API and event webhooks
- Focused on deliverability and simplicity
Best for: high-quality transactional email with minimal fuss
My recommendation
- If you want lowest cost and don’t mind AWS: Amazon SES
- If you want easiest setup: SendGrid or Postmark
- If you want a balance of simplicity and developer features: Mailgun
If you want, I can also give you a feature comparison table or recommend the best option based on your stack (AWS, Node, Python, etc.).
