Why use us as your email provider?
What makes us different than others?
- We're the only 100% open-source provider
- We don't rely on any third parties (we don't use Amazon SES or an alternative like others)
- Our pricing allows you to scale cost effectively (we don't charge per user and you can pay as you go for storage)
- Unlike others, your email with us is not stored in a shared relational database alongside everyone else
- We're the world's first and only email service to use quantum-safe and individually encrypted SQLite mailboxes
Did you know?
Other email services advertise as open-source, but they do not release the source code to their back-end. The back-end is the most sensitive part of an email provider. It is also important to use 100% open-source because it builds trust and allows anyone to contribute and independently audit.

Congrats for fully launching Forward Email – a forwarding service
for email that doesn't keep logs or store emails, and which works with ARC to ensure
signed forwards don't trip email filters 👏. I'm a happy user! ❤️

So they made this cool app that forwards email from your own domain to your Gmail inbox. There is even a catch all option, so sales@, support@, etc all goes to your own inbox. Check it out! It's free! forwardemail.net
