  Our new Amsterdam servers are live. The EU can now be the primary home for Fastmail data, and like our US locations, it's our own hardware, racked and run by our own people. Nothing rented from a big cloud provider. Already a customer? Switch regions in your settings. Thinking about it? You choose your region at signup. Our CEO Bron's post walks through exactly what lives where, because we figure you'd read the fine print anyway. https://www.fastmail.com/blog/fastmail-offers-eu-da...

  Friday is the 27th annual SysAdmin Appreciation Day, and our Platform Team Lead wrote about the job. The part we like most: the work is invisible on purpose. If you never notice the servers, networks, and DNS your email lives on, that's the whole point. We run all of it in-house, so when something breaks, nobody here waits on hold with a vendor. Someone just fixes it. https://www.fastmail.com/blog/system-administrator-appreciation-day-and-why-we-keep-our-skills-in-house/ #SysAdminDay #Ema...

  The OAIC's Privacy Awareness Week theme is about building trust when complaints are resolved. True, but we think it starts earlier. Whether you scan your customers' mail. Whether you sell their data. Whether you build features around what they want, or what your shareholders want. You're the customer here, not the product. Always have been.

  In support of #PrivacyAwarenessWeek2026, OAIC, and #SmallBusinessWeek, our COO Bek Fraser reflects on her years running a consultancy. "My clients trusted me with deeply sensitive information. I went with a mainstream provider because I didn't know what I didn't know." The right email infrastructure shouldn't be a quick decision. It's central to the trust your clients place in you. https://www.fastmail.com/blog/what-i-wish-i-knew-when-starting...

  Fastmail now has an MCP endpoint: https://api.fastmail.com/mcp. MCP is an open standard, not tied to any one vendor. It sits alongside IMAP, CalDAV, and CardDAV as another way to connect to your email, calendar, and contacts. Optional, OAuth-gated, with read-only, write, and send permission levels. You pick the client. Your data, your choice. Read more: https://www.fastmail.com/blog/an-mcp-server-for-fastmail/ #NationalEmailDay #MCP #OpenStandards #Fastmail #EmailPrivacy #BetterEmail

  "Free" business email is one of the most expensive choices a small business can make. Gmail is free because your data is the product. When you're handling client contracts and financial info, that's a real liability. Fastmail gives your business custom domains, fast human support, and a privacy-first approach, without the enterprise-tier price tag. Your domain belongs to you. No lock-in.
