How it works

Mail in, events out

Enable incoming mail on a verified domain and add one MX record for inbound.yourdomain.com, or any subdomain you prefer. Your main mailbox is never touched.

Frequently asked questions

Still have questions? Ask in Discord · Email support

Do I need to change my existing MX records?

No. Inbound mail is received on a subdomain such as inbound.yourdomain.com, so your existing mailboxes keep working exactly as before.

How much does inbound email cost?

Each received email costs one credit, on every plan. There is no separate inbound subscription.

How do I get the content of a received email?

Subscribe to the email.received webhook event, or list inbound emails through the API. The body, attachments and raw MIME are available from the email endpoints.

Your next email could already be delivered.

Create an account, verify a domain and send in under five minutes.
