I'm building a custom email forwarding services for your domain. Only have 2 customers right now though.
https://hanami.run/ https://hanami.run/
Every time I bought a new domain and need to setup DNS or verify email, all I want is to receive email from that domains. But setting up postfix or configuring lambda/ses is a pain. So I build this service.
All you have to do is point MX records to my servers and you will be able to receive incoming email.
This is the first time I have a side project that almost finished :-) after 10 years wanting to build a SaaS. To me that is a success.
- fdw 6y agoQuick heads-up: There are some grammar problems on your landing page (e.g. "it can be send out to multiple email address like mail group." should be "it can be sent out to multiple email addresses like a mail group."), and there's "superful", which I'm not sure I understand ;) Good luck!
- kureikain 6y agoOh. Thanks you so much. I was meant to type `superhelpful`. Thanks so much. If you need an account, please reach out. I can give you a free account for life.
- icefrakker 6y agoNot to be a nit but would suggest super helpful.
- fdw 6y agoThanks, that's a very kind offer :) Consider it just some basic help on your journey.
- listenallyall 6y agoYour pricing is high for this service. Exceptionally high, given the limits and no sending ability. I'd suggest taking a good look at competitive services.
- kureikain 6y agoThank you so much for your feedback. I'm still working out on the price. What do you think is a reasonable price?
- listenallyall 6y agoWell, if I was shopping around, I might notice that an account at MXRoute costs less than half of your Pro plan, with fewer limits. And that's a full mail service, with mailboxes/POP/IMAP/SMTP etc, but it could also certainly be used simply as a forwarding service for custom domains. And they have many years in business, high credibility (well, higher than a brand new service). That's just one alternative. Obviously if you have limited needs, just 1 or 2 domains, and can get by on the $1 plan, that is price competitive even with free services (like many domain registrars offering free mail forwarding). But the jump to $10 month is far too much, IMO.
- codazoda 6y agoThis is a problem I need solved and if your service works, I'll be happy to pay your individual subscription fee. If it works well and I don't have to think about it anymore I'll pay for this for the next decade without thinking twice. I just subscribed. You've designed the system in a way that's simple and strait-forward. As soon as I get a couple emails through it, I'll be asking you to take my money.
