About us
Mailfence is a secure and private mail service, that provides an end-to-end encrypted email with digital signatures for emails. We are not a traditional startup with a high cash burn rate but are in it for the long run. We are cautious, reliable, stable, and honest. We do serious things but with passion. We launched the company in 1999 and are among the pioneers of cloud software in Europe. We believe that Internet privacy is an absolute and definitive right. Online privacy matters and is just as important as offline privacy. Some people say that the loss of privacy is the price we must pay for security. But giving up our privacy is not nothing, it means giving up the freedoms on which democracy depends. So we decided it was high time to offer a service fully dedicated to email security and privacy. Few people realize how much information they give up by using the internet. Therefore many might think that they don’t care about privacy. But they don’t realize just how much personal data is stored for commercial purposes and they don’t know and cannot control how governments, corporations or other entities use the information which is willingly put online… If they did realize, they would probably be much more careful. We think that what you don’t know CAN hurt you. That’s why internet users’ absolute and irrevocable right to privacy is at the heart of the Mailfence design philosophy Email is a great communication technology, but it also makes you and your computers susceptible to viruses, spam, phishing, scams and other online threats. What makes Mailfence stand out from all other email services is that it has been conceived to protect you and your privacy. Mailfence is a service without advertising or backdoors. It is safely hosted in Belgium and uses a non-US SSL/TLS certificate. 0466.241.584

Protecting our users against spam, scams, and malware is at the top of our agenda. And as a private and secure email solution, we are responsible for upholding the highest security standards. However, our community has made us aware of issues over the past months, which we want to address here. In January 2024, we decided to strengthen our anti-spam filtering parameters. This was in response to a wave of spam emails being received by our users. However, some users have made us aware of emails landing in their spam folder erroneously. In some rare cases, emails appeared to not reach the user’s Inbox entirely. In response to this, we have enacted the following measures: 👉 lower threshold so that extremely badly formatted emails still arrive in the spam folder, and are not rejected entirely; 👉 implementation of hard exceptions for providers that caused too many issues; 👉 increase in the number of emails you can manually Whitelist for our Entry, Pro, and Ultra plans. Protecting our users against spam is (unfortunately) a continuous fight. We understand the frustration of some users and understand that receiving your emails is the most important aspect of a private and secure email solution. With these new measures, we are now confident that you will never miss an email 🙏 For the full update, check out our latest blog post - link in comments!
