Mailboxes

A mailbox represents a single email address on your domain, e.g. support@acme.com. You must have a verified domain before creating mailboxes.

From the dashboard

Via the API

import { RemindMe } from 'remindme-sdk';

const client = new RemindMe('dm_live_your_api_key');

const mailbox = await client.createMailbox({
  address: 'support',       // → support@yourdomain.com
  displayName: 'Support Team',
});

console.log(mailbox.fullAddress); // support@yourdomain.com

Deleting a mailbox

Deleting a mailbox also permanently deletes all emails stored in it. This action cannot be undone.

await client.deleteMailbox('support');
// or use the full address:
await client.deleteMailbox('support@yourdomain.com');

Aliases let multiple email addresses deliver to the same mailbox. For example, help@acme.com and contact@acme.com can both route to the support mailbox.

To create an alias, go to Dashboard → Mailboxes → select a mailbox → Aliases → Add alias and enter the alias address. Aliases count towards your domain's mailbox limit on some plans.

Aliases receive mail but cannot be used as sender addresses. To send from a different address, create a separate mailbox.

By default every mailbox on a domain is accessible to the domain owner. Sender Groups control which mailboxes can send as part of a group, allowing you to segment access without sharing credentials.

To grant a team member access to a specific mailbox via the API, create a separate API key scoped to that domain and share only that key. API keys are scoped per domain — a key cannot access mailboxes on a domain it was not issued for.

Team member invites and per-user mailbox permissions are on the roadmap. Follow the changelog for updates.

RemindMe supports IMAP for reading received email through standard email clients such as Apple Mail, Thunderbird, or Outlook.
