Managed Postfix, looked after for you
A mail server is judged by whether your messages arrive. That depends on correct DNS records, a clean IP address and a healthy queue, and Postfix needs steady care for all three.
Postfix: what we look after
- Postfix and Dovecot setup, with TLS and authentication
- SPF, DKIM and DMARC records created and checked
- Mail queue watched and stuck messages cleared
- Blacklist checks and help to get a listed IP removed
When Postfix goes wrong
- Messages going to spam or being rejected
- A queue full of undeliverable mail
- A hacked mailbox used to send spam
Who uses managed Postfix
Companies that run their own mail server or send mail from their apps.
What it needs
A clean public IP, reverse DNS, SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, and open mail ports.
What we check first
Before we change anything on a new Postfix setup, we look at these, and we tell you what we found in plain words:
- DNS records and reverse DNS
- Queue size and deferred mail
- Blacklist status
- TLS and authentication
From order to a watched Postfix setup
Postfix is part of every managed plan. Besides what is listed above, each plan includes outside checks every minute, off-server backups, security hardening and a team that answers your tickets. The price counts servers, not apps.
Tell us what you run
Order a managed plan and list your servers and the apps on them, or write to us first with questions.
We look before we touch
We check what is installed, what is out of date and what is not backed up, and tell you in plain words.
Backups and watching first
Backups and outside checks are set up before any change, so we can always go back.
Then the steady work
Updates, security, tuning and fixes follow, and you can ask us anything by ticket.
Plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server. GST is added at checkout. See all managed plans.
Postfix support: your questions answered
Why does my mail go to spam?
Usually a missing or wrong SPF, DKIM or DMARC record, a poor reputation of the sending address, or a content problem. We check each and tell you what to change.
Do you recommend a mail server or an email service?
For large or important sending, a sending service is often easier. We tell you honestly which fits your volume and skills.
Is Postfix covered by the managed plans?
Yes. The managed plans count servers, not applications, so Postfix on your server is covered with no extra price per app. Plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server, and GST is added at checkout.
