Reliable single mailbox for all email ids providers right now? I had been eying Mutant Mail for some time. The notice that Google is suddenly to start charging for custom domains on legacy accounts gave me the push to try Mutant Mail. It turned out to be an excellent purchase, Easy to set-up and with a ton of well-thought out extra functionality including a powerful Rules module. See more details at one mailbox. Each email on our server passthrough Antivirus for Malware, Spyware and Virus scan. That’s on top of our spam/bot filter. Not only that, you can use our extensive rules to block spam at your account level.
How different is this from fastmail service? The most important difference is, we don’t store any emails at all. We have taken that out of the equation, because we all already have at least one email provider, that we trust with privacy. Now since we have not used the service our self, it’s difficult to say how they do forwarding and can you reply to those forwarded emails or not. Also, since they store emails, it’s doubtful that they help with the niche we are specifically into, to let you manage all your domain emails from a single Inbox. There are two kinds of products on market, one that tries to do all. That’s what FastMail seems to be doing, competing against Gmail directly. Other types of products are niche-specific. That’s Mutant Mail, we are a solution to a specific problem of managing all domain’s emails, from one Inbox, on the server-side, without the hassle of logging into each email id. And our settings, features, roadmap reflect the same.
Your Domains – Domains or custom domains come with various extension (.com, .net, .org etc) that are attached to your account on Mutant Mail and used to create aliases. You need to own a domain name to attach it to MutantMail. Domain names can be easily purchased from domain registrars such as namecheap, godaddy or hostinger. Monthly Bandwidth – It’s the amount of data that’s allowed to be transmitted per month. On Mutant Mail bandwidth is incremented each time an email is forwarded or a reply is sent (this is the data). Mutant Mail reset the bandwidth on 1st of every month. When an alias is deactivated or deleted emails sent to it do not count towards your bandwidth.
Is it true, that you do not store or log any emails? It is absolutely true. We do not store, log or read any email that passes through our system. That’s why we have concept of recipient email id. Your email ids (that are associated with Mutant Mail), are managed by your recipient email ids. These email ids store your real emails, contacts etc. Mutant Mail only acts as routing system in between your client and your recipient email id. Thus, it ensure your brandin/domain identity is maintained when you hit reply on your recipient email id.
With Mutant Mail’s on the fly email creation system you can adopt all the benefit of email sub addressing and overcome all it’s shortcoming. Email plus sign trick and are their any advantage of using them One of the primary benefits of the plus sign trick is that it is simple to use and is already available. Only if, Email IDs were so flexible and ready to use without nuances of creating them. (Hint: Keep reading) Email sub addressing is also quite beneficial if you are using email filters. In this case, you can create a filter that will automatically shift any emails sent to name+deals@your_domain.com to the Spam folder. Sub addressing allows you to establish an unlimited number of email addresses by just adding something after the plus sign and you’ll have a whole new email address.

What is the difference between the “Delete” and “Forget” actions for an email ID? The difference between Delete and Forget is due to the catch-all. The delete can be used even if catch-all is enabled. It’s a soft delete and a marker is kept in a database to ensure, the email id doesn’t automatically get created on the fly when a new email is sent to the deleted email id. Forget on the other hand is to completely delete the email id. If used, the email id and all its record are deleted from our database. But if it is being used on the catch-all enabled domain, the email id will be re-created on the fly as soon as it receives a new email. Forget option doesn’t contribute towards email id count, delete does, as a soft delete happens. We send detailed information on this via email and similar things on the third day of onboarding.
