The license is ok, but the library doesn't have too many downloads and the repo has only 6 stars. It also isn't mentioned by Postmark as official https://postmarkapp.com/developer/integration/official-libraries or community https://postmarkapp.com/developer/integration/community-libraries library. Are there any alternatives? Have we considered sending HTTP requests directly?

There's no official Rust library for Postmark. The service itself offers a REST API over which this library is a thin wrapper. We found it during 1:1 with @ashoat, I quickly looked at its source code and it looks alright. If you feel strongly, I can implement the API calls directly as a follow-up task, but this will introduce more maintenance overhead.
Quickly looked for other alternatives, but these libraries are poor or not maintained at all.
