Comment: Sources 1-2 are blog entries and source 3 is trivial coverage. Please restart from scratch by finding sources first and adding content later. guninvalid (talk) 21:03, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Comment: Please do not remove past AfC decline templates. These are left for future reviewers so that they can review your draft and check that any prior concerns have been addressed. Removing these templates can make it more difficult for your draft to be accepted. Thank you. guninvalid (talk) 20:26, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

Architecture and Features
The service's infrastructure operates on dedicated bare-metal servers utilizing NVMe storage to manage input/output operations.[2] Forward Email structures its data storage by isolating each user's mailbox into an individual, encrypted SQLite database.[2]
The platform supports unlimited custom domains, email aliases, and catch-all addresses. It also provides CalDAV protocol support for calendar synchronization..[1]
Adoption
The service is utilized by several institutional and enterprise organizations, including Netflix Games, the United States Naval Academy, and the Linux Foundation.[2]
In May 2025, Canonical, the company behind the Ubuntu operating system, announced it had adopted Forward Email to manage the `@ubuntu.com` email aliases granted to official Ubuntu Members, replacing their previous internal routing system to address spam filtering issues.[3]
