Frequently Asked Questions

Do you guarantee inbox delivery?

No. We configure legitimate infrastructure; inbox placement depends on reputation, content and recipient policies.

Yes. We work on DigitalOcean, Hetzner, AWS, Linode and other providers with SSH access.

Is this suitable for bulk marketing email?

No. This service is for legitimate transactional and permission-based business email.
