Create an inbox

Prerequisites

• You must be an Account Administrator to create new inboxes.

Create an inbox in the Dashboard

1. In the left-hand navigation, locate the Inboxes section.
2. Click the + icon, or click the Inboxes section title and select New inbox.
3. In the dialog that appears, enter a name for your inbox.
4. Click Create.

Your new inbox is assigned a unique domain name (e.g. INBOX_ID.mailosaur.net). You can immediately start sending emails to any address on that domain.

To configure settings such as message retention or Performance mode after creation, see Inbox settings.

Create an inbox via the API

Send a POST request to the servers endpoint:

curl -X POST \
  -u "key:YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "My Inbox"}' \
  "https://mailosaur.com/api/servers"

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key.
