StartMail overview

What is StartMail?

StartMail is a privacy-first email service that keeps your inbox safe. It is designed for individual and business use. StartMail will never serve you ads and protects your inbox with state-of-the-art security. By blocking all tracking pixels and warning you every time you click an external link, it protects you from phishing attempts. With StartMail, you can send encrypted emails to anyone, even if the recipient doesn’t use encryption.

StartMail users can create an unlimited number of email aliases at no extra cost (also called secondary/disposable/ burner email). You have the option to use personalized or burner email aliases and set up expiration time depending on how long you’d like to keep it active. The secondary email is ideal when signing up for a service or any other interaction with a website when you do not want to reveal your real email address. 

Custom email addresses are available for businesses. Set up your professionally looking email with ease!
