Email hosting

fortrabbit does not provide email hosting; this guide helps you choose an external provider and configure MX records for your domain.

About email accounts

fortrabbit does not provide email hosting or SMTP services. Two distinct use cases require external providers:

  1. Personal email accounts (IMAP/POP3) — this article
  2. Transactional emails sent by your application — see transaction mails

Integration with fortrabbit

Email account providers operate independently from fortrabbit. Configure your domain's MX (DNS) records to point to your chosen email provider's mail servers; fortrabbit's hosting infrastructure is not involved in email routing.
