We also encourage people not to use Hoodie in production, yet :)

What @gr2m means: there is no reason Hoodie’s mail feature would work any different from a traditional web app. At some point a server side will validate a client request, and if valid, translate that into sending an email (Gmail comes to mind). Hoodie’s email plugin can do exactly that, except that today’s implementation is a mere sketch of that, like other parts of Hoodie, that show what can be done, but aren’t hardened against production use, yet. None of that means though that Hoodie behaves any differently from a security/abuse/DOS perspective than any other web app :)

Thanks for confirming my crosspost :) However, as I was just saying, wouldn't it be nice to clearly see that we're talking 0.x directly on the website and not only when we install the npm package?

EDIT: Thanks for your answer, I am going to stop crossposting now :D
