Email

Simple Host sends email through Resend: sign-in codes, sign-in alerts, email-change confirmations and undo links, domain and idle-cleanup warnings, new-Submissions digests, and the account-deleted confirmation. Without RESEND_API_KEY, nothing is sent and email-code sign-in is off (Google sign-in and the admin key still work).

MAIL_FROM must be on a domain you have verified with Resend.

Setting Default Allowed What it does
IDLE_REPLY_TO support@simple-host.app email address Reply-To address of the idle-cleanup emails.
RESEND_API_KEY none secret A Resend API key for sending email (sign-in codes, alerts). Without it, email sign-in is off. Security-sensitive.
MAIL_FROM Simple Host <noreply@simple-host.app> text The sender of every email, on a domain verified with Resend.

Recipes

Email sign-in on a small box. Verify your domain with Resend, then:

RESEND_API_KEY=re_...
MAIL_FROM=Simple Host <noreply@example.com>
