I purchased a custom domain to use with mailbox.org.
The MX records are setup and basic tests are working. I’m getting myname@customdomain.com showing up in my mailbox.org account.
But I got confused with setting up a family member with theirname@customdomain.com
Do they need to pay for a plan too?
There not worried about the privacy they just want the custom email address. Is there anyway to do this for free or cheaper, without self hosting email?
Side question. I’ve been paying for anonaddy to hide my normal @outlook account. Are there any benefits in keeping anonaddy to send emails to my custom domain. Instead of just using a catchall, or pre-configuring some aliases?
The only benifits I see are
- Anonaddy can make accounts on the fly
- On The Fly accounts might be easier to disable than things sent to a catchall
- Anonaddy dosnt reveal your domain (maybe this is the big draw card?)
Thanks.

I use someone else’s domain for privacy reasons. Any email with your personal domain in it can be traced back to you.
