What is POInbox?

It's like a post office box for your email!

POInbox is an email privacy and anti-spam service for your inbox.

Have you ever wanted to give your email address to a website or service, but you didn’t want them to keep sending you emails after you finished with them? Give them your POInbox address.

A POInbox address is like a normal email address but it only redirects the emails that you want to receive straight into your inbox. Any spam emails you don’t want are blocked and the genuine emails are immediately redirected to your inbox in a matter of seconds.

When you’re done with the POInbox address, simply deactivate it and thats it. Your email address remains private at all times!

Privacy

The sender will never know your real email address, they will only know your POInbox address.

Security

Your email address and messages are secure at all times on our servers that use military grade encryption.

Control

You can control specifically what emails you want to receive or want to block for your POInbox address.

Why use POInbox?


Protect your identity
Once your real email address is known by spammers, hackers and other bad actors, they can use it to impersonate you or steal your identity.

Don’t play catch up with spammers
You may be able to configure your Outlook or Gmail rules to block spam, but spammers will change their messages to bypass these rules. The end result is a never ending game of cat and mouse.

Control your own Inbox
There is no assurance that unsubscribing from a list or asking for your email address to be removed will stop messages from appearing in your Inbox. It’s better to turn off an email address when you no longer need it.
