Team email hosting
Create mailboxes on your own domain with browser-based webmail, standard IMAP and SMTP access, per-mailbox storage and sending limits, and centralized administration.
Mailyte
Mailyte is an email platform for teams and software products, combining domain-based mailboxes, webmail, SMTP/API sending, broadcasts, and deliverability tools. It can be used as a managed cloud service or self-hosted through its AGPL-3.0 community edition.
Email hosting and sending from one platform
Mailyte is an email platform for organizations that need team mailboxes, application-generated messages, and customer broadcasts under their own domain. It combines webmail and standard mail protocols with SMTP and REST API sending, so employees and software can use the same authenticated domain.
The service includes domain setup and deliverability tools, mailbox administration, migration from IMAP providers, message logs, and reporting. Organizations can use Mailyte Cloud or run the open-source community edition themselves; the community edition includes the mail stack and webmail under AGPL-3.0.
Core capabilities
Application sending
Send receipts, password resets, order updates, and other application messages through drop-in SMTP or a REST API using authenticated domain sending.
Sandbox and environment keys
Test integrations in sandbox mode with separate keys for development, staging, and production before messages can reach real recipients.
Delivery monitoring
Track submission, delivery, deferral, bounce, open, and click events in the dashboard, with searchable history and webhooks for delivery events.
Domain and account management
Generate and verify SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and MX records against live DNS, while providing domain authentication and account security controls.
IMAP migration
Copy mail, folders, attachments, and read state from an IMAP provider, then perform a later DNS switch without deleting the source inbox.
Who it is for
Running team email
Create domain-based inboxes for employees, support addresses, or sales teams, then manage accounts, storage, access, and offboarding from one administrative dashboard.
Sending product email
Connect a website or software product over SMTP or the API to deliver receipts, password resets, order updates, and other automated messages with delivery tracking.
Managing customer broadcasts
Send newsletters and announcements to opted-in contacts using the same sending-credit pool as application email, with unsubscribe requirements and delivery visibility.
Changing email providers
Move an organization from Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, cPanel, or another IMAP host while keeping the old service active until messages and folders have been copied.
Choosing hosted or self-managed deployment
Operate the mail stack on your own hardware when self-hosting is preferred, or use the managed cloud option when the organization does not want to maintain the server.

FAQ
What is Mailyte?
Mailyte combines email hosting for team mailboxes with SMTP and REST API sending for application messages and campaigns. It can be used as Mailyte Cloud or self-hosted through the open-source community edition.
How do I set up a domain?
Add your domain and publish the SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and MX records generated by Mailyte. The service checks the records against live DNS; after verification, you can create mailboxes and send mail.
Can I migrate email from another provider?
Yes. Mailyte connects to the existing provider over IMAP, including Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, cPanel, and other IMAP hosts. It copies messages, folders, attachments, and read state while the old inbox remains available, so you can change MX records after the migration is complete.
Can team members use their usual mail apps?
Every mailbox includes Mailyte webmail and supports standard IMAP and SMTP connections. Team members can use a browser or compatible clients such as Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird, and phone mail apps.
Can Mailyte send transactional email and broadcasts?
Yes. Application email and campaigns can be sent through SMTP or the REST API, and broadcasts use the same prepaid sending credits as app email. Sending is subject to the account and plan limits shown in the Mailyte dashboard and pricing information.
