Fastmail – 20 Years Old

Re:Fastmail – 20 Years Old by LeoPanthera on Thursday November 21, 2019 @02:35PM (#21598483)

I don't think the Fastmail UI tells me but I believe I joined Fastmail in 2002 and have been using them since then. (Before that I was using Spamcop's hosted mail.)

There have been some minor annoyances over the years, but in general, no major complaints.

Still sad about the loss of the XMPP service a few years ago though.

XMPP pre-Conversations.im was pretty bad anyway but Fastmail could review their stance given some other mail providers re-enabling modern XMPP: https://mailbox.org/en/post/daniel-gultsch-creator-of-conver...

This will show you when you were first invoiced:

Settings -> Billing & Plan -> View payment history and printable invoices

2002 as well and have been extremely happy with the service.

Thanks for detailing where to find this. Looks like 2002 (August) as well.

Use my Gmail far more, but my Fastmail is primary for accounts that matter.

Yay 2002 Club! (December for me.)

I'd heard good things so recommended them to a quite non-technical client, and was impressed by how much simpler life got afterwards!

Still no complaints. Thanks Fastmail.
