Postmark Skills Postmark is a transactional email platform built for developers, with 15+ years of deliverability expertise. These skills teach AI agents how to use the Postmark API effectively. Sub Skills Feature Skill Use When Sending emails postmark send email Sending transactional or broadcast emails — single, batch, bulk, or with templates Inbound processing postmark inbound Processing incoming emails via webhooks, building reply by email, email to ticket, or document extraction Template management postmark templates Creating, editing, or sending with Postmark's server side Handlebars templates and layouts Webhooks postmark webhooks Setting up outbound webhooks for delivery, bounce, open, click, spam complaint, and subscription change events — including endpoint verification, per webhook statistics, and retry behavior Best practices postmark email best practices Deliverability setup, compliance (CAN SPAM/GDPR/CASL), email design, list management, testing, and sending reliability Outbound and inbound webhooks are different systems postmark webhooks covers outbound event webhooks; postmark inbound covers inbound email webhooks. They run on separate infrastructure and have different retry schedules — do not apply one to the other: Outbound webhooks ( postmark webhooks ) Inbound webhooks ( postmark inbound ) Retries Up to 9 retries over ~ 72 minutes (3 standard + 6 backoff) Up to 10 retries over ~ 10.5 hours Retried on 5xx, 408, 429, network timeouts only — every other 4xx is permanent Any non 200 response Endpoint verification and per webhook statistics are outbound features — see postmark webhooks .
