I dont have ad..
Actually you do. You have AzureAD.
@scottalanmiller nice I am paying 12.50 @ 10 accounts .
But that is not Mail.
You are paying $12.50/month for Office365 Business Premium
- Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.
- Exchange Online
- Sharepoint, teams, ODfB, etc.
You could be paying a simple $4/user for Email (Exchange Online Plan 1).
In fact you could get EOP1 for $4 + O365 Business for $8.25 and only pay $12.25/user

It is definitely not me. But easily could have been, lol. But if I was going to do that, it would be called MailBear.

https://iroute.io is another brand of the owner of MXroute . They use https://crossbox.io/ as a email web client and MailChannels to send emails.I haven't used MXroute nor iRoute but I know people that is a customer of the former (small amount of mailboxes) and they say that the service and support are great.
Take it with a grain of salt. -
@dave_c does mxroute use crossbox as well?

Take it with a grain of salt.Crossbox looks pretty nice at a quick glance.

I just signed up for MXroute. My order was flagged for review... So I emailed support and my email bounced... Not a great first impression...

The email bounced? WTF.
Maybe they went out of business? Did you manage to contact them in some other way?

Why jump to such an extreme conclusion? :frowning_face: Perhaps @Curtis used an incorrect email address.
I just emailed them at [email protected] and received an immediate response.
They also offer support via Slack. -

Have you never talked to Scott before?
-
@JaredBusch Yes... just trying to nicely call him out on his "bad behavior".

If the email is gone for an email company, it's a reasonable possibility. I didn't say that they did, I said it was a possibility, and it was a very real one. Especially with two things happening at once, both that their email was down and that they didn't create the account automatically which could suggest an automated system being left on.

It's not bad behaviour to point out what the decently likely possibilities are.
-
@scottalanmiller You did nothing but jump to an illogical conclusion. I believe it's more likely that this was a user error. We don't know because the OP hasn't provided enough details. What email address did he use? Did the email truly bounce or was it rejected for some other reason?
Do you always assume that a company is out of business when you read an unverified claim that an email bounced? Do you always jump to wild conclusions before performing any due diligence? I would hope not... because that isn't very professional.

I did not assume they were out of business. Who is jumping to conclusions here? I offered a possibility. A reasonable one.
I neither jumped, nor concluded.

@Danp said in Building a Mail Server:
I emailed them too, got a response right away as well. Let them know about the thread, hopefully they will pop in.
They have a Twitter page, too.

That's great. Thank them for us, and poke them to get involved as well. We assume the customer was also mentioned (I made a point to reach out to one of them and let them know as well.)
Great to have you here.
