Fastmail.ca now within the fold!
https://blog.fastmail.com/2016/12/15/fastmail-ca
Very pleased to learn FastMail has acquired Fastmail.ca. For some history of the Canadian service: https://migrate.fastmail.ca/announcement.html Will fastmail.ca be available soon as a sign-up / alias option? -- the fastmail.org domain was acquired with Fastmail.ca and is available for sign-up and alias now Last edited by pjwalsh : 15 Dec 2016 at 02:21 PM. |

That's pretty cool.
Reading into the blog post, the delay in making fastmail.ca available as an alias is due to the way they're handling the migration process: Quote:
I'm guessing for whatever reason this simply wasn't an issue with fastmail.org — maybe fastmail.ca was just holding onto that domain and not offering it as an alias to their users? |

Very interesting indeed. I had no idea FM was in negotiations with fastmail.ca. As a matter of protectionism -- another Canadian company taken over by a foreign one? Well, I would say this one is for the better.
