For email, shared infrastructure is key. Because Microsoft needs to see non-spam email from every IP frequently. So your dedicated IP that you use to send 300 emails per month from? You’re landing in the inbox in spite of that, if at all, not because of it. When IPs are shared, it is essential that they not be shared with spammers. No one out there is working as hard as we are to balance shared IP usage, mitigate any reputation issues without any action from our customers, and militantly protecting the IPs against being used to send spam.
All this while we’re not limiting you per domain or per email account, but instead only charging you for the storage allocated to store your email.
We’re not perfect. Our UX leaves much to be desired. But if you’re tired of being a mail admin, and I know you are, there’s only one place where you can hire one that works like you wish you did for pennies.
Gonna keep it closed source. While perfectly within their rights, a competitor appeared with the apparent direct intention of selling at a loss with the idea that they had more money in the bank and could hold out longer than us if they took our market. All while using things we gave them. Lesson learned on being too generous on that side.
@RijnHartman I feel like AI is making people forget that design trends have always been a thing. But maybe everyone is too young to remember the glorious Web 2.0 trend. I’ve always been into design trends, and I especially love the AI ones.
@FBI Apologies. We noticed someone is signing up https://t.co/ATyPxRNhE3 addresses for various websites and newsletters. Only a handful went out from our systems, but we've taken measures to protect against it for now. The measures are mildly excessive and can't remain for too long, but we'll re-evaluate as we go.
AI is the future, and we’re always experimenting with safe methods to implement it. Meet our new Discord support bot. It’s offline now because it created this and no one will ever be able to sleep again.
Fact: You will change more hearts and minds by ostracizing and ridiculing people in groups than you ever will by calmly explaining to people why they're wrong.
Have you bullied any spammers today? Consider doing it for humanity.
We feel for the admins dealing with this, and hope that their day still has some joy in it afterward. But this right here is to everyone who ever said we couldn't be trusted to stay online because we don't hire enough people. Does Amazon hire enough people?
Sudden urge to find that one chat thread from last Thursday? Good luck. Email’s been finding stuff since before you were born. Slack and Teams are just group projects for adults who hate themselves. Email: undefeated since 1971.
AI phishing attacks aren’t just gunning for fat wallets, they’re coming for your lunch money too. Small biz? Congrats, you’re officially a target. The robots don’t discriminate. But hey, maybe your spam filter learned karate.
Most small tech companies suck up to investors, in hopes that they’ll strike it big one day and attract a whale that’ll buy their founders a yacht.
We’d rather investors focus on AI-controlled dildos. We’re good.
There are actually people who sit around and wait to see what they’re told to care about next. Then they spend the next week fighting with people on the internet about something they knew nothing about just days prior.
We’re a little behind in internet arguments. But we stand with team Boxxy.

Sydney Sweeney might have great genes. We’ve got passable sysadmin skills and a very strict spam policy. If you form a single file line, we’ll try to sign everyone’s man boobs.
We’re looking for media outlets to write a story about this. You know a unique “Apple unfair” article has a high probability of going viral. Easy ad revenue. Boost your career. Let us know.
Congrats to @Fastmail, the only provider @Apple allows to send push notifications to the iOS Mail app.
No announcement. No documentation. No access for anyone else. Just quiet favoritism.
We genuinely like @Fastmail. We’re happy for them. But @Apple has chosen a winner in private, giving one provider a major advantage and refusing the same to everyone else.
We’ve tried to talk. @Apple just stops responding once they realize what we’re asking. Our customers want answers, and unlike Apple, we don’t ignore them.
We’re not going to be quiet. We’re just getting started.
