This is top 1 on bad mail providers This is top 1 of bad mail providers. They read everything in your mailbox. And stolen data in your mail if it is important. I don't understand why fastmail can alive today? The app and mail server are bad, often got technical issue.

We have been using paid Fastmail for 15… We have been using paid Fastmail for 15 years and free prior. Never in your face. New features are timely and useful. Private. I make use of multi alias emails for various roles. And for spam minimisation whereby when purchasing or subscribing, if any later spam emails to that address I can just delete the alias and create another.

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.

I've used Fastmail for over 3 years I've used Fastmail for over 3 years. It's a fairly good service provider, simple to use and with good options. I only use it as a personal service as for business I'd look elsewhere. Having US servers is a definite no no for a start and being based in Australia, a country known for its terrible privacy laws, is a no go either. Not much they can do about it even if they tried, unless they move out of Australia and base their servers in a better privacy trustworthy country.

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.
