#42Purelymail https://purelymail.com/ and Migadu https://www.migadu.com/pricing/ and Zoho have better pricing and features for full inboxes and sending. If you just want forwarding, there are free options like Cloudflare or ImprovMX.
purelymail.com still a solo gig? I don’t know because earlier the website talked about it, now it’s not mentioned.
So has the bus factor really changed?

#43Earlier quoted context omitted.
The Namecheap email forwarding service quietly drops all email it thinks is spam. And their spam filter is too aggressive. There is no way to know that an email was dropped. I missed a lot if emails until I figured this out.
Yes, exactly this. Mailwip has 2 features to discover this 1- Mailog(opt-in, disable by default): Once enabling you can choose the detail of logging to see the delivery status. 2- Spam digest: (opt-in, disable by default). We will send a daily summarize if there is email we flagged and didn't forward to you.
Oh that’s interesting.
With mailbox.org I am in complete darkness if some mail was dropped after or before my mail client and mailbox.org support is well mailbox.org support. So I don’t really know what happened.
So if an email was dropped even from spam - there’s some log display interface for my account where I can see all this?
Or if something I was sending was dropped — I can see that as well in there? (Assuming neither were shown as a failure email in my mailbox)

#44Thank you. I build this. Originally every time I had a domain and start a project, I have to setup email. Other services always lack something that I want. So I ended up building my own and has been growing it since 2021. We also had a RayCast extension developer by Xmok https://www.raycast.com/xmok/mailwip We had some very advanced routing rule based on regex, and wildcard domain, work in progress to support sieve f…

Ah yes, then we can have it hallucinate and totally misrepresent the concept. Terrible idea.
Re: Email Forwarding for Your Domain
#47Is this necessary? Gmail and Namecheap do this for free. I recently set up a domain and was able to set up Gmail and Mail.app to both send and receive as that email. I also use Fastmail and set that up with a domain no problem. Maybe I’m missing what this is for.
Most of the time these service works. But when it doesn't work you just don't know how to debug it. Mailwip.com has a mail log with the detail so you can debug delivery issue. Also, manage email with namecheap ui dns is something I just don't want to deal with. I want some nice UI, that also enable a few member of family to self-manage the domain and forward rule. Sometime I also want to have webhook to parse receipt…
Aha, thank you!
I did not know about the silent drops. That is concerning.

#48It seems similar to Gmailify https://www.gmailify.com/ I am happy customer of theirs, I think they are doing everything I would ever wanted, but good to know you are here as well...
When I've used another forwarding service in the past, things were weird with calendar and drive. I don't think drive is fixable but I'm curious if you have a working setup for calendar?
Hmm... My setup is that when I invite client for a call, I do this from my personal gmail and include business email as attendant (which goes through Gmailify). Now, when I get confirmation, I can confirm for both that they will attend, but I didn't try to see if I can open calendar with this other email. Based on this it sounds like it exists somewhere, but I really don't care as I have too many different things and all I want is to use my gmail accnt and look professional enough.
Hope this makes sense and sorry if it took longer to respond.

#49FWIW, I use forwardemail.net. Been using them a few years and haven't had any issues. They've got a free plan but you have to put your email in the public DNS record, or $3/mo to keep your email private. https://forwardemail.net/en/private-business-email?pricing=t... Not affiliated, just a happy customer. The biggest issue now is that my email addresses always confuse humans. They're always like "Your email address i…
I have the same "confuse humans" problem. I use CloudFlare to forward ${company}@accounts.${me}.com to a personal GMail. I've had a limited number of cases where the sender will accept the address, but internally fail to send to it, Costco being one of them (the person in-store at Costco couldn't get over the address)
