The announcement Mandrill Forcefully Requiring Mailchimp Accounts by laravel-news.com on February 25, 2016, might be of general interest to all users of Mandrill Email services.
It seems that Mandrill only grants a 60 days grace period for the transition to a Mailchimp account or to other providers, such as Amazon SES.

We might move to sendgrid as it allows you to send using any domain. This works out well for our cloud, as people expect emails to be sent from their own email address and not notifications@example.com.
Sadly, we might have to say goodbye to Mandrill Integration 
Unless… Mandrill reverts its decision.
I’m working on SendGrid integration app. It will be based on Mandrill Integration and will provide same features for SendGrid. Hopefully, we will have working application by the end of this week.

That’s brilliant. Thanks a lot 
. That’s great timing.
great thanks …
… but wouldn’t it be helpful to make the code available right now while you’re still at it?
That might lead to other people (not me because I can’t write code) picking up on it and help to finish.
SendGrid Integration App is now available for everybody. It can do everything that Mandrill Integration does:
- uses event webhook to sync status of every sent message
- unsubscribes and cleans bounced, spammed, blocked and invalid emails from
corresponding lists with scheduled task
Feedback is appreciated.

Could this be integrated into the App Installer list?
I suppose yes, but I’m not exactly sure how to do that.
@anand: would you kindly have a look at @alex_melkoff 's SendGrid Integration App and let us know how to proceed from here?

Hello @adityaduggal! Please, provide the following information:
- ERPNext Version
- Frappe Version
- Bench Version
- What actions did you perform before this error occured
This is an error from frappe-bench installer according to traceback. Did you have any issues with app installations before on your instance?
Hi @alex_melkoff,
I think the app installed fine after the 1st attempt since it did not give any error but I think the sendgrid account is not setup properly as the webhook are not configured properly…infact I have not done any webhook setting in my sendgrid account and hence the communication status is not getting updated.
