👉 SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) engineering refers to the process of designing, implementing, and maintaining systems that handle the sending of electronic messages across networks using SMTP. It involves configuring mail servers to correctly route, deliver, and manage email traffic, ensuring that messages are delivered efficiently and securely. This includes setting up server infrastructure, configuring mail transfer agents (MTAs), handling various email protocols and extensions, managing spam filters, and ensuring compliance with email security standards. SMTP engineering also encompasses troubleshooting and optimizing the performance of email delivery systems to handle high volumes of traffic, prevent bottlenecks, and maintain reliability and security in email communication.
