You would also need to not care about sending email to IPv6 domains.

As a replacement, you can use Amazon SES and verify single email addresses

Hi,

according to this thread:


https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/gmail/GyeMcHv1U-g%5B1-25-false%5D

Gmail isn't allowing anymore "Send through Gmail" option.

Yep. Existing email-address setups are grandfathered, but no new ones
can be added via the UI.

It's probably a mix of "let's support the ecosystem by only sending
mail from servers authorized by the domain holder" and "let's sell
more Google for Work email hosting".

If it really was more the former, there would be a "if your SPF
records include:_spf.google.com, you can still do it" option, IMO.
