Email SMTP support in Azure Communication Services offers a strategic solution to simplify the sending of emails, strengthen security features, and unify control over outbound communications. As a bridge between email clients and mail servers, SMTP support improves the effectiveness of email delivery. It creates a specialized relay infrastructure that not only increases the chances of successful email delivery but also enhances authentication to help secure communication. In addition, this capability provides business with a centralized platform to manage outgoing emails for all business-to-consumer (B2C) communications and gain insights into email traffic.

One of the key principles for Azure Communication Services is to have a simplified developer experience. The service's email platform simplifies the experience for developers and eases the back-and-forth operation with organization administrators. It improves the end-to-end experience by allowing admin developers to configure the necessary sender authentication and other compliance-related steps to send email, so you can focus on building the required payload.
