Hey all

We have created a solution where we create our transactional emails within Mautic too then use the REST api to send them immediately on request. However, if a user has unsubscribed from our emails the email isn’t sent. Is there another other solution to this problem than

1. Check if user has unsubscribed
2. If yes, [https://developer.mautic.org/#remove-from-do-not-contact](https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.mautic.org%2F%23remove-from-do-not-contact)
3. Send transactional email
4. Then [https://developer.mautic.org/#add-do-not-contact](https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.mautic.org%2F%23add-do-not-contact)
