Email

Mail at your own name: you@yourbusiness.com rather than a free address with somebody else’s brand in it. One plan per domain, paid monthly from the wallet.

marina email buy example.com --tier business
marina email add hello@example.com --password '…'

The dashboard does the same things at marinahost.app/dashboard/email, including webmail, which has no terminal equivalent.

The plans

Plan	Mailboxes	Storage
Starter	5	10 GB
Business	25	50 GB
Pro	100	100 GB

Storage is a pool shared across the mailboxes on the domain rather than a per-mailbox quota, so one heavy inbox and four light ones is fine. The pricing page has the monthly rate for each.

Because it is paid from the wallet, top up before you buy. Provisioning takes a moment, so buy answers with an order rather than waiting; --wait blocks until the plan is up instead. A timeout there is not a failure and does not cancel anything, so check marina email list before buying a second time.

The records you publish

Mail needs DNS, and which records you add depends on who hosts the domain.

If the domain came from us, or you transferred it in, the records are published for you and the plan is usable when it finishes provisioning.

If you own it elsewhere, you get the exact records to add wherever it is hosted: the MX records that route your mail, an SPF record, and a DKIM record that lets other mail servers verify your messages are really yours. Add all of them, then re-check:

marina email verify example.com

That turns the plan on once they resolve. The dashboard has a button that does the same thing.

SPF and DKIM are not optional in practice. Mail sent from a domain without them is treated as suspicious by every large provider, which shows up as your invoices landing in spam.

Reading your mail

Webmail is linked from the dashboard, and works in a browser with no setup.

For a mail app on a phone or a laptop, the dashboard shows the exact host names alongside these settings:

IMAP	port 993, SSL/TLS
SMTP	port 465, SSL/TLS

Username is the full address, and the password is the one you set when you created the mailbox. You can reset it from the dashboard if it is lost; it cannot be shown back to you.

Mailboxes

marina email mailboxes example.com
marina email add sales@example.com --password '…'
marina email password sales@example.com --password '…'
marina email remove sales@example.com --yes

Create one per person, not one per purpose that then gets shared. Deleting a mailbox deletes its mail, which is why remove will not run without --yes.

Your plan’s mailbox count is the number that can exist at once, so freeing one up means deleting one. --quota-mb caps a single mailbox; leave it off and it draws on the plan’s shared pool.

What you must not send

Marina’s mail is for a business talking to the people it already deals with: invoices, receipts, order updates, replies to customers.

Cold outreach and bulk campaigns are not allowed, whether sent by hand, through a sending tool, or by anything that calls itself a warm-up service. Cold mail is what gets a sender filtered, and filtering does not stop at the message that caused it: your invoices go with it. That is why this is a rule rather than a limit.

This is a one-strike policy. An account found sending cold or bulk mail is suspended, and a second time is permanent. If you need to run marketing campaigns, use a bulk sending provider built for it and keep it off the address you send invoices from.
