Our mail system comes with security features to help you cut through the spam.
Our Quarantine ensures malicious emails, such as people pretending to be your Chair, don’t get through.

Save time with role-based emails
Shared Mailboxes allow you and colleagues to collaborate on incoming email. Set up role-based emails (such as allotments@yourdomain.gov.uk) for serving residents quicker and more efficiently.
Distribution Lists allow you to easily email all councillors in one go. You can create as many role-based emails as you like.

All you need are the login details for your old system, and it is done in less than 8 hours.
