Fastmail @fastmail has been operating on bare metal for 25 years. Their planning and (over-)provisioning strategy reminds me of Wikimedia.
Situations where cloud renting is cost effective for medium or large companies are vanishingly rare, and always have been. As with so many big tech patterns […]

Does anyone know how #fastmail gets the avatars for email senders?
I know it's not BIMI as neither `news.philips-hue.com` nor `philips-hue.com` have BIMI records.
I know it's not Gravatar as neither of the two email addresses returns anything from Gravatar […]

Anyone here using #fastmail with clients that support #jmap? How is the experience? I learned about JMAP looking for a gmail replacement as I use labels extensively.
Safer Internet Day reminder: your search engine probably knows more about you than your email provider.

Fastmail donates to The Perl and Raku Foundation.
Why don't you hear about Perl in the headlines? Because it works. And keeps working. Sometimes the best technology is the most boring.

That is very expensive for email… $10/month/user?! I thought #fastmail prices for $5/month/user was pricey!
#selfhosting email needs to be a thing again.

#Fastmail has a doc re: setting up MX records on #Cloudflare, but I'm concerned w/the sequence/timing of steps, especially considering transfers from Hover take a week.
I feel like the minor savings of transferring to Cloudflare may not be worth the headache. #DNS

Anyone have experience transferring a domain with #Fastmail email to #Cloudflare?
The domain is registered with Hover and uses Fastmail's name servers.
If I transfer the domain to Cloudflare, I am required to use their name servers.

SEHR happy mit dem Umzug zu #Fastmail !
GMail ist *komplett* importiert worden, incl. Labels, Kontakten und Kalender, und wird kontinuierlich upgedatet, falls etwas Neues reinkommt.
Gerade testweise eine meiner Domains angekllemmt - Kinderspiel, 2 Minuten später kamen alle Mails an!
Mit dem neuen Jahr habe ich mich auch endgültig von allen möglichen #Noteapps verabschiedet.
Geheimnisse sind im #passwortmanager
Schreibnotizen sind eigene Papyrusdokumente im jeweiligen Schreibprojekt und Alltagsnotizen fließen jetzt in die Notizfunktion von #fastmail
huh, so I never use Dark Mode usually, and so I never noticed that #FastMail has this cozy frame around everything. I like that
By the way: switching to #Fastmail, including making my email address use my own domain and importing all my old email from #HeyEmail #Hey was quick, easy, and in the end cost something like 40% less. Of course I don’t know yet how much I will enjoy using the interface; but everything I’ve done […]
I really liked #HeyEmail #Hey. It fit me very well. But at a fundamental level #DHH’s values differ from mine; and in a way that pretty much means I have to switch. So, #Fastmail, here I come.
🤔 Understanding email encryption isn’t simple. Email can be encrypted in several ways, each protecting against specific threats. We explain what matters, the trade-offs, and how to balance privacy and security.

A VS Code screenshot of a javascript function that sends an email. It just uses a standard POST request with a JSON body. It's not that interesting—which is a good thing. Apart from some specification terminology you send in the request body, it looks like a standard network request.
Randomly found myself using JMAP today. (it's a modern alternative to IMAP)
I was trying to use SMTP in a limited node.js environment and it wasn't quite working. For a small hobby project, I don't want to deal with a cloud middle-man like Postmark, Resend […]

Screenshot of the Fastmail web interface showing the “Compose” button menu expanded. Below “New event” and “New contact,” a newly added option appears labeled “New Masked Email address,” indicated with a small mask icon. This new option allows users to create a masked email alias for privacy when sending or receiving mail.
Great new addition to this drop down in @fastmail.com on the web. #maskedmail #privacy #fastmail
