We host websites on a server that limits the number of files (INODES) we can place in it. I recently replaced an obsolete SendGrid plugin with another, and suddenly I was hitting 85% of my INODE allotment because the new plugin had too many files. I had two options: migrate some of the sites to another server or switch to a lighter plugin. I chose the latter option: “SMTP for SendGrid – YaySMTP” fits my needs perfectly.
