Usage and limits
Understand email events, storage, recipient and attachment limits, and workspace safety caps.
Included capacity
Each workspace is $12/year—the equivalent of $1/month, billed annually—and includes 1,000 email events each month. Creating an account does not start a subscription; every customer must explicitly choose a paid plan before any charge can occur.
Additional capacity is not currently available through self-service billing. Mailbox, domain, and organization-seat allowances are not sold as capacity packs.
Storage and retention
Accepted messages remain in the mailbox until a user deletes the thread or the workspace is deleted. A deleted thread stays in trash for 30 days before its stored messages and attachments are removed permanently.
Workspace data can be downloaded as a portable NDJSON export. The export includes message content only when the requesting person can read the mailbox. Attachment files are not embedded in the export. A workspace has a 1 GiB storage safety ceiling across its mailboxes. When it is reached, outgoing storage is rejected and incoming mail produces a blocked-message notice until space is released by permanently deleting trashed mail or the 30-day trash retention expires.
What counts as an event
- One accepted incoming mailbox delivery is one event.
- Each outbound recipient is one event.
- Each forwarded copy is one event.
- Rejected spam, quarantined mail, and duplicate provider events are not billed.

| Attachments | 10 per message |
| Single attachment | 5 MB |
| Complete message | 10 MB configured boundary |
Sending caps
New workspaces use conservative daily sending limits. Monthly event limits and daily outbound limits are checked before a message is queued. A request that exceeds a cap returns 429 with a specific error code such as monthly_limit or daily_limit.
Rate limiting can also return 429 when too many send requests arrive in a short window. Use bounded backoff and do not create an uncontrolled retry loop.
Billing state
Paid workspace access follows the Stripe subscription state. Expired legacy trials and inactive subscriptions cannot send. Incoming mail remains available when outbound sending is paused for delivery-reputation review.
