Business mail on your domain
Piskes Mail is a business mailbox on your own domain, on the same platform as your files, tasks and customers. Verify the domain once, run the people and the mail rules from one admin page, and use the same verified domain to connect single sign-on for the workspace.
Your domain
A new workspace can take an address on a subdomain of mail.piskes.com, with no DNS of its own to touch. When you want name@yourcompany.com, you prove the domain is yours with one TXT record, then its DNS moves to the platform: the records it already has are copied across first, then the mail records are added for you.
Replies are grouped into a thread, and a thread is archived, labelled or snoozed as one thing.
e archives · z snoozes · r replies
Every send waits ten seconds before it leaves, or whatever you set from none to thirty. A scheduled message waits until the time you picked.
Settings › Your addresses
Labels you name, and filters that apply them to new mail as it arrives.
Per mailbox
A signature per address, and an automatic reply with an end date so it does not keep answering after you are back.
Per address
Subject, sender, the body and the names of attachments are indexed, so the word you remember is enough.
Indexed on arrival
Upload a .mbox or an .eml file into your own address or a shared one. Messages already in the mailbox are skipped. Outlook .pst files need exporting as .mbox or .eml first.
Settings › Import
Export every message in your addresses as .eml files in one .zip, downloadable for a day.
Settings › Export
Mail a team shares
Most small companies run a shared address as a password everybody knows. Here it is a mailbox with members.
Add people to a shared address with the access each one needs, from reading it to sending as it. A thread can be assigned to one person, so everyone can see who has it, and colleagues can leave comments on it that the customer never receives.
A mailbox can require a second person to approve a draft before it is sent.
Someone outside receives a link rather than the body, and the link stops working when it expires or you revoke it. It controls access; it is not encryption.
Past five megabytes an outgoing file is offered as a download link, rather than a bounce you hear about later.
The admin page
The workspace Admin console walks a new workspace through setup — a name, a domain, the owner’s address, the people — and is then where you add and suspend people, watch storage and set the rules mail has to follow. Single sign-on, directory sync and two-step sign-in for the whole workspace are set there too.
Open Domains — only a workspace owner or admin sees it — type yourcompany.com under “Add your domain”, and keep “Separate addresses” or make it an alias of a domain you already have.
Add the TXT record Domains shows, named _workmail-verify, at your registrar, then press Verify. That usually takes minutes, sometimes up to an hour.
Domains then shows the nameservers to set at your registrar. The domain’s existing records are copied across first, so your website keeps resolving. Usually a few hours, at most 24–48.
Press Check again. Once routing and sending are on, the domain says mail is live, and you can make it the primary domain.
In Admin › Security, connect the same verified domain to your identity provider for single sign-on. A domain that has not been verified in Domains cannot be connected.
Email campaigns verify separately. Piskes Email campaigns send through a Resend account of your own, and Resend checks the domain on its side; it does not reuse this verification yet. If the domain’s DNS is hosted here, you add the records Resend gives you on the same domain page in Domains.

Questions
Nothing is charged today. Billing is not switched on, so there is no plan to buy and no price we can quote yet. When there is one, it will be on this page before anyone is asked to pay it.
Thirty gigabytes per person, pooled across the workspace and shared with Piskes Drive. One person with a heavy mailbox draws on the pool, not on a fixed per-seat box.
Up to five megabytes goes as a normal attachment. Anything larger is offered as a download link in the same message, so it arrives rather than bouncing. Incoming messages can be up to twenty-five megabytes.
It goes out through Cloudflare’s email sending, with SPF, DKIM and DMARC published for your domain. Nobody can promise an inbox; what we can say is that the records a receiving server checks are published for you.
Yes — the guide above is the whole process. Its DNS moves to the platform, with your existing records copied across first so your website does not go dark. It is the newest part of setup, so plan it for a quiet afternoon.
Each person can export their mail as .eml files, which any mail program reads. An account that is deleted has its mail and files erased, except what a legal hold is keeping.
Name the workspace, take a subdomain, and write to someone outside the company. You will know within the hour whether the mail you depend on can live here, and the table above tells you what to check first.
