You simply state one advantage to SMTP: "At that point, SendGrid’s recommendation to use SMTP is based on the large number of libraries and documentation available to integrate using it." Are there others? I think programming against a REST API is easy, also because of a large number of libraries. Or are there issues with the REST API?
