Oh cool, my project is on HackerNews! I was wondering about the sudden uptick in user signups, and then I checked HN... I'm Scott, feel free to ask me anything about the service.
Will sign up in a heartbeat as soon as you have CardDAV / CalDAV support!

How do you do spam blocking? I think Gmail really shines at this. It's one of the reason I was thinking of switching to Hey email also, though after reading Hey's reviews I've decided not to. So anyway, would love some comments from users or you about how good you are at separating the wheat from the chaff.

I'm sorry if I missed it, but do you do catchall email service for custom domains? My current email provider ( https://mailbox.org ) limits email aliases per price plan, the most basic that I currently use allows for 3 + a free root@ and webmaster@. I'd probably be convinced to go through the hassle and switch providers if your service provides an improvement over this limit.

IIRC, mailbox supports catchall if you sacrifice one alias for it. You’d have to input „@domain.tld“ at the alias config menu.

Looks great! Supporting ManageSieve is a nice touch. Most sieve services only allow managing sieve through a web UI. I use Fastmail and like that they contribute to open source mail servers, and do standards work (JMAP). Does PurelyMail contribute to open source?
In general yes I do contribute to open source, although there's not too much to contribute back to open source _yet_, so the main contribution has just filing Roundcube bugs. (The main mailserver code has diverged too much from Apache James to really be useful.) Some of the libraries I wrote are open sourced and on my Github account, e.g. the web framework: https://github.com/ScottPeterJohnson/shade
I hope you don't find the pain of diverging from the mainline to be too great. We kind of cheated there with Fastmail and Cyrus IMAP by merging all our changes back to the mainline, since there wasn't much other development happening.

You can still use Purelymail for mail, and have your mail client provide a cohesive mail/contacts/calendar UI.

We do have CardDAV support, and hope to develop CalDAV soon :)
can anyone explain what benefits are to a managed email service over rolling your own on a vps server with stuff like mailinabox? you use your custom domain anyways and it allows s3 or backblaze backups so data retention is not an issue. you use your custom domain so in case something stupid happens to your vps provider, you can just restore and be done with it? and its not like managing your own vps email server is…
because of spam many systems agessively block email delivery from IP addresses which do not known to belong to well established mail providers with millions of users. And it is very tedious to unblock it on case by case basis. This is the reason I've stopped running my personal mail server 10 years ago.
