In the console, select the workspace that should own the mailbox.

Click New mailbox.
Choose a hosted address
Enter a valid username for the mermail.app domain.
Create the mailbox
Confirm the address and create the mailbox.
Create a custom-domain mailbox
Before creating a custom-domain mailbox, add and verify the subdomain in workspace settings.
Add the domain
Go to workspace settings and add a subdomain such as support.mail.example.com.
Add DNS records
Add the DNS records returned by the provider.
Verify the domain
Click Verify after DNS has propagated.
Create the mailbox
Create a mailbox using an address on the verified domain.
Custom domains require a paid plan. The Developer plan includes up to 5 custom domains.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to check |
|---|
| Username is rejected | Check length, separators, characters, and reserved terms |
| Custom domain is rejected | Use a subdomain with at least three labels |
| Domain cannot be verified | Check DNS records and wait for propagation |
| Mailbox limit reached | Check the workspace plan limits |
