Forward any address to Bosun

Fastmail, Zoho, Proton, IONOS, an IT company runs it, or you're not sure — the shape is always the same: find the forwarding or routing setting, and point a copy of inbound mail at your Bosun ingest address.

  1. Find where the address is managed. Search your provider's help for “forward email to another address” or “email routing”.

  2. Create a forward from your shared address to your Bosun ingest address (shown during Bosun setup, e.g. in-8f3a2c94@in.usebosun.com).

  3. Prefer “forward and keep a copy” where offered, so nothing changes for anyone still reading the old mailbox.

  4. If the provider sends a verification email first, it arrives in Bosun — open it there and click the link.

Check it worked: Bosun's setup screen watches live for the first forwarded email — send yourself a test and watch it arrive.

Still not working?

Email us the provider name at hello@usebosun.com and we'll send back the exact clicks. If you got a bounce code, the fixes index explains the common ones.

If you hit this while setting up a shared team inbox: that's what Bosun is for — one forwarding rule, and your team answers hello@ together.
