Nice, but I believe the 10 emails feature we have now was made standard to reduce spamming especially with "yahoo boyz" sending plenty emails to catch "fish"

In addition, this can be used also by user doing development locally and wish to send emails from their local wiki. SendGrid offers 12,000 emails to its users for an unlimited time and this can come in handy when you are not in deployment / production environment.
