Advanced Spam Filtering

Our proprietary algorithm identifies and filters spam with remarkable enthusiasm. It also filters some regular emails. It's hard to tell the difference sometimes.

False positive rate: "character building."

24/7 Support

Our dedicated support team is available around the clock. We have a contact form on our website and we check it regularly.

"Regularly" means when we remember.

How it works

It's almost too simple. That should concern you.

1

Sign up

Create your PacketLossMail account in seconds. We ask for very little information, mostly because we'd just lose it anyway.

2

Get your address

Pick your perfect @packetlossmail.com address. First impressions matter, and nothing says "professional" quite like this domain.

3

Send and receive

Use your new email like any other. Messages go in, messages come out. Well, messages go in. The rest is more of a probability exercise.

4

Enjoy the mystery

Did that email arrive? Was it important? You'll never know for sure, and honestly, isn't that kind of freeing?

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions we've been asked, and some we just made up.

Is PacketLossMail a real email service?

Technically, yes. It receives email. Whether it constitutes a "service" in any meaningful sense is a philosophical question we're not prepared to answer.

Will my emails actually arrive?

Many of them! Probably most of them. We're not going to put a number on it because our lawyers said we shouldn't, and also because we don't actually know.

Can I use this as my primary email?

You can, in the same way you can use a hammock as a primary bed. We would not recommend it. Please do not do this. We are asking nicely.

What happens to my data?

Your data exists on our servers in a state best described as "present but not accounted for." We don't sell it, mostly because nobody has asked. If you're worried about privacy, rest assured that even we have trouble finding your emails.

Do you have an SLA?

We have several! They're all aspirational. Think of them less as "Service Level Agreements" and more as "Service Level Ambitions." Or "Service Level Approximations."

Why is the status always "Degraded"?

We tried setting it to "Operational" once and it felt dishonest. "Degraded" more accurately reflects our permanent emotional state and server health.

Can I get a refund?

A refund on what? It's free. If you somehow paid us, we'd like to know how, because we haven't set up payment processing.

How do I delete my account?

Email us at support@packetlossmail.com and we'll get right on that. By "right on that" we mean we'll add it to a list that we look at sometimes. Your data will eventually be deleted, either intentionally or through the natural entropy of our systems.

Terms of Service

The most honest legal document you'll ever read.

1.

Best Effort: We will try our best. Our best varies. On a good day, we're excellent. On a bad day, we're a cautionary tale. Most days fall somewhere in between.

2.

Your Data: Your data is yours. If we can find it. We make no guarantees about data retention, data retrieval, or data existing in any particular state at any particular time.

3.

Packet Loss: We reserve the right to lose any packet at any time for any reason. This is not a bug. It is our entire brand identity.

4.

Uptime: Uptime guarantees are more of a suggestion. A vibe, if you will. We aspire to be up. Sometimes we succeed. When we don't, please enjoy the rest of the internet.

5.

Liability: Our total liability is limited to a sincere apology and, if we're feeling generous, a GIF of a cat looking sorry. This is legally binding and also adorable.

6.

Modifications: We may modify these terms at any time. We probably won't, because writing legal documents is exhausting and we'd rather be losing packets.

7.

Acceptance: By using PacketLossMail, you accept these terms. By reading this far, you have too much free time. Same, honestly.
