Not good now. I have been using FastMail for few years, Its been perfect, never had a problem, I cannot find anything to criticise it. I have used support a couple of times to query odd emails and they were brilliant. I don't find many of today's products and services without fault, but I can't find fault with FastMail. In my view definitely worth the money. Further to my review. Fastmail update has in my view in 1 respect gone backwards, now requiring entering password numerous times for some actions, I don't mind improvements, but this is a total pain in the backside. Reducing my review to 1 star.

Fastmail does not give you a free trial! Fastmail advertises 'Try Us For Free!' promising a 30-day free trial. They take your credit card and information to set up an account. Only then do they tell you there's no free trial, but don't worry--they'll add on a free month in your first year. When I saw what it would cost to add my wife as a second user, I decided it was not for me and closed my account. Did I get a free trial? No. Did I get my money back? No. In the jargon of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, this is a 'deceptive practice.' Ordinary people might use a different term.

The spam filtering is very poor. The spam filtering is very poor, and they make the most absurd suggestions to try and improve it. They want me to create a folder to mark emails as 'non-spam'. What? If I don't move an email from the inbox to the spam folder, shouldn't that be indication enough that it is NOT spam? Speaking of which, I also receive Fastmail newsletters even though I'm opted out. This makes it spam, doesn't it? I will be moving to another provider.

Great email service with novel features I have been using Fastmail for such a long time now that I can’t even remember when I first signed up. It must be over a decade, now. It’s a great email service, with some nifty features, on top of the “basics” like notes, file storage, calendar, etc. Lately, they’ve partnered with 1Password to support “masked emails” so that when signing up online you can automatically create an email alias, so if you get lots of spam at that address, you can just disable it. It’s a neat usability enhancement to their email aliases features which I look forward to trying out.

Working great Working great I moved from Gmail and I am slowly switching to my personal domain. The import of calendar, emails and contacts were super easy. And it can also import emails from gmail automatically to Fastmail. The interface is snappy and supports a ton of keyboard shortcuts to improve productivity. I love masked emails, auto-purging labels, filters/rules and the customization options. You can use my code to get 10% off the first year "u29251136"
