It depends a bit on what you mean by email logs and webhooks, but if you want a practical default:
- For email logs + delivery events: use your email service provider’s built-in event/webhook system
- Examples: SendGrid, Mailgun, Postmark, Amazon SES, Resend
- For general webhooks handling/receiving: use a dedicated webhook/queue layer if reliability matters
- Examples: AWS API Gateway + Lambda, Cloudflare Workers, Pipedream, Zapier/Make for low code
Good picks by use case
- Best for transaction email + simple, reliable logs: Postmark
- Best all-around with rich event logs and tooling: SendGrid
- Best developer-friendly, simple webhooks/events: Resend
- Best if you’re already on AWS and want low cost at scale: Amazon SES
- Best for marketing + transactional in one place: Mailgun or SendGrid
If your goal is “store email logs and receive webhooks”
A solid setup is:
- Email provider sends the messages
- Provider sends webhooks for delivered/opened/bounced/complained events
- You ingest those webhooks into:
- a database/log system, or
- an event pipeline like Segment, Kafka, SQS, Pipedream
My short recommendation
- If this is for a product and you care about reliability: Postmark
- If you need flexibility and lots of integrations: SendGrid
- If you want the simplest modern dev experience: Resend
If you want, I can recommend one based on your stack (AWS/GCP/Vercel), volume, and whether this is transactional or marketing email.
