One note of caution, from personal experience. Make sure you have a fairly clean email record and subscriber list. I once tried to switch to sendgrid and it lasted just a few hours before they suspended my account for an overly high bounce rate. If you have a site with turnover (in my case employees create accounts with their work emails and when they leave their jobs, their emails bounce. I’m pretty diligent about keeping track and disabling dormant accounts, and the bounce rate was <10%.

Sorry, just confirmed with them and port 587 does support TLS over StartTLS.
