Compare the required features
Choose based on mailbox count, storage, mobile and desktop client requirements, administration and support.
Free Domain Mail intentionally does not offer IMAP, SMTP, aliases, catch-all, shared mailboxes or bulk campaigns.
Plan DNS migration
Changing provider normally changes MX, SPF and DKIM. Record the old configuration and avoid overlapping SPF records.
Validate incoming and outgoing mail before removing the previous service.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Changing production DNS before recording the current values.
- Assuming a DNS record guarantees inbox placement.
- Testing before the previous TTL has expired.
Frequently asked questions
