Email requests using unverified email address in from field are not thrown

[OussamaFadlaoui]

Subject of the issue

I used the Node SDK package resend to send my first email. Upon using an unverified domain in the from field, my request seemed to go OK (promise was not rejected). When I went to the dashboard, I discovered the request was rejected with status code 403:

That's a valid point, however, why did the Promise not throw an appropriate error?

Steps to reproduce

1. Create Resend account
2. Install resend NPM package
3. Send an email in Node.js using an unverified domain name in the from field

Expected behaviour

The promise should be rejected on 403 status codes..

Actual behaviour

No errors being thrown.

Hey @OussamaFadlaoui, would you mind sharing the request you're sending?

@bukinoshita - an example I can give to back up @OussamaFadlaoui 's example is this

let data;
    try {
        data = await resend.emails.send({
            from: '[email protected]',     //this is wrong on purpose to throw an error
            to: '[email protected]',
            subject: 'Message from cv-site-nextjs',
            reply_to: senderEmail as string,
            react: React.createElement(ContactFormEmail,
                {
                    senderMessage: senderMessage as string,
                    senderEmail: senderEmail as string
                }),
        });
        //interrogation required to check for error
        if(data.error?.message !== undefined)
        {
            throw data.error;
        }
    } catch (error: unknown) {
        return {
            error: getErrorMessage(error),
        };
    }

You'll see I have had to interrogate the data object to pull out the child error object with the below

 if(data.error?.message !== undefined)
        {
            throw data.error;
        }

as I do not hit the catch block even though the following error is displayed on the UI
