Setup

How it works

1

Point your domain

Add an MX record for the domain or subdomain you want to receive mail on. DNS propagates, we take it from there.

; DNS zone
inbound   IN MX 10  mx.sendafrica.online.
2

Receive and parse

Every incoming message is parsed — headers, body, attachments, DKIM/SPF results — into a clean, structured record.

headers   ✓ parsed
body      ✓ text + html
attach.   ✓ 1 file
dkim/spf  ✓ pass
3

Webhook or inbox

Get the parsed message posted to your endpoint in real time, or read it in the hosted inbox. Your choice, per address.

{
  "to": "receipts@…",
  "from": "customer@…",
  "subject": "Statement",
  "attachments": [ … ]
}

Questions worth asking
