Mini is $9/month or $90/year with 1000 in/day, 100 out/day and 30 GB. Limits are counted per account across all its domains and mailboxes. - per-object cap: unverified: no maximum message or attachment size is stated on the captured pages - retention: no hard storage quota: the 5 GB of Micro is soft and mail never bounces for full storage; an account over quota for seven days is blocked and, uncleared, purged after 30 days | source: [2] - egress: not applicable: a mailbox; outbound mail is counted in messages, 20 per day on Micro with a 25% tolerance before sends are rejected | metered: yes | free allowance: 20 outgoing messages per day on Micro | source: [1] - identity: email | detail: signup asks for a full name and an existing email address that receives a confirmation link, with an optional organization name; no card for the trial. The paid plan is paid by card through Stripe, by a PayPal prepayment to the account balance, or in Bitcoin arranged through support. Domains on free TLDs are refused, so a paid domain is needed. - interface: unknown, rest - limits: - request-rate (binding): 20 outgoing messages per day on Micro, per account, with up to 25% tolerance before sends are rejected [1] - request-rate (binding): 200 incoming messages per day on Micro, per account; past the 25% tolerance incoming mail is deferred to the next day [1] - volume-quota: 5 GB of soft storage on Micro, per account [1] - binding note: 20 outgoing messages per day is the first ceiling on Micro; storage is soft and mailboxes and addresses are unlimited. - interface detail: IMAP at imap.migadu.com (993, TLS), POP at pop.migadu.com (995, TLS) and SMTP at smtp.migadu.com (465, TLS; port 587 also answers); CalDAV and CardDAV; an administration REST API in early beta at https://api.migadu.com/v1/ with HTTP Basic authentication by account email and API key - endpoint: part of interface detail - tooling: any IMAP, POP or SMTP client; IMAPSync for migration per the vendor guides; the beta REST API manages domains and mailboxes - composes with: a flat-priced account with unlimited mailboxes and addresses across many domains; 20 outgoing messages per day bind first on Micro, so it suits receiving on many domains more than sending. - reliability: a trial account can be limited or ended without notice; an account over quota for seven days is blocked and purged 30 days later - notes: No free custom-domain mailbox: the cheapest plan is Micro at $19/year, with unlimited mailboxes but 20 outgoing messages per day. The trial needs only an email address. Pricing is per account, not per mailbox. - evidence note: plans and quotas read from the vendor pages; imap.migadu.com:993 accepted a TCP connection and smtp.migadu.com:587 answered with an ESMTP banner; no login or send was made - extras: - stale_after_days: 90 - evidence: - [1] 2026-10-31: the yearly prices are Maxi $990, Standard $290, Mini $90 and Micro $19 | capture: sha256:2783016cfc2cd58d10a82c26d9e2e39cf0e3ce5b447d38c950dafbffff76a44c | quote: | or$990/year | or$290/year | or$90/year | $19/year | - [1] 2026-10-31: Micro has no monthly price; Mini is $9 per month | capture: sha256:2783016cfc2cd58d10a82c26d9e2e39cf0e3ce5b447d38c950dafbffff76a44c | quote: | $99/month | $29/month | $9/month | Not available monthly. | - [1] 2026-10-31: Micro accepts 200 incoming messages per day | capture: sha256:2783016cfc2cd58d10a82c26d9e2e39cf0e3ce5b447d38c950dafbffff76a44c | quote: | 10.000 in/day | 3000 in/day | 1000 in/day | 200 in/day | - [1] 2026-10-31: Micro sends 20 outgoing messages per day | capture: sha256:2783016cfc2cd58d10a82c26d9e2e39cf0e3ce5b447d38c950dafbffff76a44c | quote: | 2000 out/day | 500 out/day | 100 out/day | 20 out/day | - [1] 2026-10-31: Micro includes 5 GB of storage, marked as a soft limit | capture: sha256:2783016cfc2cd58d10a82c26d9e2e39cf0e3ce5b447d38c950dafbffff76a44c | quote: | 500 GB ++ | 100 GB ++ | 30 GB ++ | 5 GB ++ | - [1] 2026-10-31: one account holds unlimited mailboxes and addresses at a flat price | capture: sha256:2783016cfc2cd58d10a82c26d9e2e39cf0e3ce5b447d38c950dafbffff76a44c | quote: The plan prices are flat, per Migadu account.
