Could someone please recommend a way to reliably send alerts from smartd and mdadm?
I've tried couple of thing over years:
1. Using Gmail for smtp - it hates it, it would send me "suspicious activity" every other day and finally ban me.
2. Using Protonmail for smtp - it logs me out from time to time.
3. Long ago I used some way to send those alerts over XMPP. But I don't use it for anything else and the clients are battery hogs.
All I need is a smtp server, which won't logout, ban me, to send email to a single address.
I'm also always on Signal, it could be any Android app if it doesn't eat battery.
I'm willing to pay reasonable amount for a good service.
What do you guys do?

Thank you, I see lots of recommendations and good things said about this service. I've already set it up.
Notes for someone else who would be interested:
- email you use for registration will be the sender
- it requires phone number (validated) and address (no validation)
