Mango Mail is one of the most affordable email hosts on the market with a solid UI/UX. It has a simple, unified dashboard where you can control all your emailing needs and also supports advanced features such as aliases, catch-alls, plus addressing, and subdomain addressing.

You can currently get 3 months free if you start or upgrade a plan before the New Year.


Hey everyone! This community has been a big part of Mango Mail's growth and I wanted to let you know that we have finally launched on Product Hunt. Any support would be greatly appreciated!


I didn't know you could provide images in the submissions. You can check out our home page though, we have a showcase of the dashboard and you can see our docs.


Thanks for the kind words. We have several measures for filtering spam including RBL checks, Bayesian Filtering, and checking for common spam tactics.


Mango Mail is an affordable email host tailored for startups and small businesses. Instead of charging per user, we charge based on data. This way, you can make as many users and connect as many domains as you need for a fixed rate.


You're right. I'll fix this.


I knew that plus addressing was inherently flawed in that it required the support of the plus "+" character. So I implemented subdomain addressing to ensure wide comparability. And it looks nicer.


Haha, no no you're good. Nothing's going on with Florida except mosquitoes.


I'm glad someone finally said this. There is so much concern for "The government is spying on me" but the truth is, if you're doing something illegal, I don't even want you using it. The government only cares when you do something and they are forced to step in.


Can you elaborate more on the feature you would like? I have no problem building a solution from scratch if it comes in handy.

Also we use Bayesian filtering, rbls, dbls, rate checks, the whole 9 yards. We haven't had much complaint about receiving spam. Ik you said you've been burned but I'd love for you to give us a shot so I can see what happens and possibly improve.


I don't know if what I'm imagining is technically possible. But it would be cool to be able to have my email mirrored to two different services. One email address, email shows up in Mango Mail and my Google Apps email. Then I can evaluate Mango Mail's spam performance against Google's to see if it's good enough for my needs.

If I get up the courage to try again, yours will be my first choice :)


Hmm... so just off the top of my head, I'm thinking one service would have to forward to the other. Only problem with that is that the sending server would now be the relay and not the original sender. Since MX records only account for using one service, there would need to be some sort of intermediary to do this. Possibly have mail delivered to a common server which then sends it to both Mango and Google (giving each the same odds to detect spam).

If you do end up trying it, feel free to shoot me an email either at contact@mymangomail.com or my personal, steve@mymangomail.com
