Seems like a cool solution for guys like me who have about 7 or 8 email domains to keep track of. Also, thanks for pointing out that GMail also has a daily cap on sending emails out. I've never ever come close to it, but never realised there is a cap on their service.

May i ask why you not simply redirect all your emails to a single inbox?

In order to redirect, you still need smtp server for the domain. Also if these are for some side ventures, handling correspondence via single inbox can be bit inconvenient and error-prone.

Are there plans for providing an API for creating mailboxes/domains? We previously used Mailgun for mailboxes (back when they still provided them) and ever since they discontinued mailbox support we've been looking for a solid mailbox provider that can handle any number of domains, mailboxes and aliases.

Have you checked out Zoho? They are free for up to 25 accounts per domain.

Thank you!

Are there any plans to allow people to utilize an API to create and manage accounts or forwards? If not, this would be awesome feature given how you bill.

Same question. The "unlimited" domains would be very useful in some scenarios where I'd like many domains to simply act as email forwarders (rather than storage)

As another user pointed out - I use the separate email addresses for separate side projects. Some have additional team members on the domain, some have just me.

I used to try and run them all under one email client, but it got messy to try and keep replies separate and coming from the correct domain address (for support and marketing queries etc.). Also, trying to run one inbox on mobile was achievable, but tricky.

I like having each web app domain in a totally separate, sandboxed inbox. Occasionally I delegate the handling of a particular inbox to another team member for a week or two while I am either away or working on a project, so it is nice to be able to attach/detach an Inbox from my conscious management whenever I like.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yes. Password leaks, bruteforcing, and some "rubber hose" attacks can be mitigated by 2FA.

Password leaks are server-side. If they don't know how to properly hash passwords, how you can trust them to implement correctly 2FA? Bruteforcing is not realistic with even medium password strength. If by "rubber hose", you mean physically coercion, what would forbid the attackers to coerce you for your email or your phone as well? I think that the main reason 2FA has been pushed, it's for the Facebooks or the Googl…

Leaks can be client-side, too. Outdated or zero-day exploits could easily allow attackers to get a (replayable!) password or hash from a browser, improperly terminated VPN, SSL stream, etc.

An ephemeral TOTP value is almost useless to them in this case.

As for rubber hose: if your 2FA smartcard/token/device isn't carried after you leave the office (for example), attackers getting your password via a mugging out the street is less useful.

I think one of the things I appreciated most about this service is the drawbacks[0] section. I've started to look for this section in major JS frameworks[1] as well as other SASS/PASS services when I'm evaluating them and I've found them all immensely helpful.

Yes, same here.

I was surprised actually. I do usually see this in some FOSS projects, but never in a commercial project.

It was actually quite refreshing.
