We build Forward Email, a 100% open-source, privacy-focused email service for custom domains. You get [email protected] with forwarding, encrypted mailboxes, sending, calendars, contacts, and an email API in one place. Forwarding to Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, or any inbox is free, and paid plans start at $3/month.

More than 1.6 million domains use Forward Email, including The Linux Foundation, Ubuntu, the University of Cambridge, Disney Ad Sales, and the US Naval Academy.

🔐 Why people switch

  • Private by design. We process forwarded mail in memory and never write it to disk. Each mailbox is its own encrypted SQLite file that only your password can open.
  • 100% open source. The website, the API, every mail server, and every app live in public repositories, so anyone can check our privacy claims.
  • Works everywhere. Use Apple Mail, Gmail, Outlook, Thunderbird, or our own apps over IMAP, POP3, SMTP, CalDAV, and CardDAV.
  • No per-user fees. Every plan includes unlimited domains, and paid plans include unlimited aliases.
