Why your own domain in the sender line matters
An address like anna@your-company.com is more than cosmetics.
Your own address looks more serious, is easier to remember and belongs to you. If you change provider later, you take the address with you. With free email the address is tied to the account, with your own domain it is tied to you.
Then there is delivery. Mail with properly set authentication records (SPF and DKIM) lands in spam less often. The portal shows which records your domain needs for that in the mail configuration.
For you as a freelancer or small business that means quotes, invoices and replies visibly come from your brand and reach the inbox.
Your address, your domain, your mailboxes on servers in Germany.

Set up in four steps
Fastest when the domain is with the same provider.
Choose plan and domain
You order the mail hosting and name the domain the addresses should run on.
Set the records
MX, SPF and DKIM point to our mail servers. If the domain is with us this works in the portal. If it is elsewhere you enter the shown values with that provider.
Create mailboxes
In the portal you create addresses, passwords and aliases and hand them to your team.
Connect your apps
Enter the credentials in Outlook, Thunderbird or on your phone. Webmail works right away.
If you already have mail with your current provider, open a ticket first. We look together at how to move mailboxes without a gap.
05
Who it is for
Three typical uses.
- Freelancers and self-employed
- A professional address for quotes and invoices, plus aliases such as billing@ without extra cost per address.
- Small businesses and agencies
- Mailboxes for the whole team, calendar and, where needed, a shared inbox for support@ and info@.
- Clubs and communities
- Role addresses such as board@ and treasurer@ that stay when the office changes hands.
