I like the idea. How do you guarantee deliverability 10 years down the line though?

Not sure about this one, but I did this once and then got an email before whatever date I set and it basically said "Hey we're shutting down, here's your message ahead of schedule. Sorry."

That's a great suggestion ! I will personally make sure everyone receives their email even if it needs to be ahead of schedule

Hey thanks for asking ! Essentially, we rely on AWS to store the letters so deliverability pretty much depends on AWS not shutting down all of sudden in the next 10 years. We also have a daily database backup in place which I'm thinking of moving to some other service to mitigate risks. Ravilla also has a super good point, if we ever need to shutdown before that, I will make sure everyone receives their letter ahead of schedule !
