I'm happy that Acquia put this on the roadmap! 🙏 If I had a wish I would love to see the manual email in there too:
I believe this brings a lot of value because. As it is now the manual email sending feature is of no use. As a Sales or Marketing person I don't want to send a personal email to one of my contacts and then have the email client tell them that it was sent from a mailing list. |

I think those are breaking changes and should be released in a major version.. |

Understood. What about implementing it in a way that the same "component" can be used by both M4 or M5. I mean, we need to get started with distributed architecture sooner rather than later, and email is like the cornerstone of Mautic, and there's so much that marketers need for Mautic email to be on par with other MA tools out there... |

🤔 Problem outline
With the current implementation, there are problems with sending transactional/operational emails such as order confirmations, shipping notifications, password reset emails, or 1-2-1 emails through Mautic from the contact profile.
Emails which are sent on an individual basis to a single person, and not in bulk, should be treated differently to those which are sent in bulk.
Other providers are already addressing this issue:
