Mail Lifeboat

The feature that we hope that you’ll never have to use.

What happens when your mailbox provider goes offline?

What would you do if your mailbox provider went offline for any reason? Datacenters can fail, cables can fail, or widespread outages can happen at the provider due to configuration errors.

It’s not just the provider that can be the problem.

Usually it isn't.
It could be a configuration error from from one of your staff members or a contractor, or you may not be able to trust the platform because it’s been compromised. Soemone might have even forgotten to pay the bill...

Your customers and suppliers don’t care that you’ve got “technical issues” all they hear is silence - wondering why you aren’t replying to them or why you haven’t sent that message that you said you were going to send.

Mail Lifeboat is independent of your mailbox provider, and is designed to provide “dialtone” for your team, customers and suppliers, meaning that you can continue to communicate with them until the issue is resolved.
