10 days ago it was named Mailoso
7 days ago we finished testing email servers
3 days ago we were still called Mailoso

the sun never sets on open source

and so many people get abandoned with no viable alternatives
our waitlist is open, and if you're a github user give us a star

if you've ever invited team members to a tool
you know the frustration
- invite
- wait for them to signup
- start assigning/interacting
- tag them in all old relevant stuff
- get the inevitable "i dont have access to this thing"
@UnInbox
makes life easy
we got an amazing poem by email ❤️😭

mailtools
parse html emails
remove quotations, trackers, styles
extract & remove signatures
clean up html
we adopted this package from

and will keep building on their epic work
OSS FTW
a few weeks ago we announced our first npm package
we use it to handle emails for

now theres a live tool to test things for yourself
and help us build better signature extraction methods 🚀
built by
@blankparticle
based on a random idea 🫡
give it a try!
👀we've shipped a bunch of bug fixes
- Forwarding emails using the `Forwarding Address` should now work as expected 📩
- You can now delete a convo that was delivered to a team 🗑️
- Random error when replying to emails 🤷♂️
- Now show more formatting options for incoming emails 🖊️
Everyone at UnInbox gets a free @ email address
You can also add custom domains, but will initially require upgrading to a paid plan
Pricing is per user, with unlimited domains and email addresses
oh, and paid users also get a cool @
@UnInbox
Looks amazing. But no calendar (yet), right?
I was really heavily relying on Gmail+cal.. the integration in skiff with not being able to respond to meetings directly via mail was a pita. 😬
we want to make sure people with a custom domain arent left in the wind
and we know our plans can seem pricey if all you want is one custom domain
we cant allow everyone to add a custom domain yet, we still have to mitigate some risks
but... our founders agreed to allow each
yup, we have an extra FAQ on our website just for that
Full documentation, step by step with videos too
and later we'll aim to have "one click deploy" buttons
@UnInbox
Will there be better documentation on self hosting outside of joining Discord? Not a fan of keeping docs/vital info in a closed box.
Very cool project!
30 mins product onboarding roast! 🔥
Spoke to the

founder recently and signed up for the app. The app is still in its infant stage, so I thought why not roast the signup flow.
Instead of steps, I'm using "# of emails" as a motif to onboard the customer and as they read

thank you - this is what we're about
“I’ve used almost every email system there is, they all have their advantages, but they’re all based on email and have to work around its limitations.
So I decided to build it, and build it open source so it can live on forever.”

We made a Manifesto 📜

@notesnook
as soon as we can mitigate spam and abuse through custom domains, we’ll offer it for free
but since we’re open source and fully self hostable, we’ll never really go away. you can just migrate to your own instance

Newsletters make a lot of noise IF you have an inbox
But you never read them because they're pushed off screen by lunch time 😢
If you UnInbox... they'll be sorted away to read later 😴
And you get to focus on actual conversations 😉

Email was built to replace snail mail 🐌, something existed in its form for hundreds of years 🏛️
We're building for the way we communicate today, not how they did in the history books 💬
@McPizza0
hi I'm excited to hear about
@UnInbox
and have joined the wait list. I'm a Skiff user and very disappointed with their recent announcement. I would like to see an UnInbox end-to-end encrypted service too if possible. Best of luck 👍

Tuta and Proton are great
Stable, Secure and reliable
if they do what you need, go with them
When we launch, compare us
will take a while to get the E2EE and security audits in
but we're 100% open source, so nothing to hide
@UnInbox
I'm curious - will you enter into web3 by accepting crypto payments for the more self-sovereign crowd?
Also thoughts on Simplelogin type feature? (one use emails/alternative to + email handles on real domain)
