New Login Screens

sotiristherobot · 22 Aug 2016, 01:56 AM

Hello, I've been reading these forums for a long time, but never actually registered until now.

I'm currently on the enhanced plan, thinking to upgrade to the new plans although I don't really need the extra space. Can someone who is on the new plan please post an image of the new login screens to see if I'm actually missing something by not upgrading?

Lately, I've been thinking to move to Google Apps, since it's a better value for money for me, and don't really mind the privacy, since I know there is not much that I can do about it anyway. Half the planet is using Gmail so in any case google gets my emails.

I'm just trying to convince myself to stay with Fastmail.

What do you mean by 'new login screens'? Nothing changed to my knowledge.

There is now, a "Theme Option " under policy. The available options are light, dark, glass etc.

Thanks

Can't you just log out, then go to www.fastmail.com to see the new login screen, or am I missing something deeper?

Hey nighthawk, yes I can do that. However I can't switch between the different color options under "Policy" as I am in a legacy account

they are referring to mail.yourdomain.tld, not fastmail.com/login

Not greyed out for me... From the help files:

If you use an external DNS provider, you’ll need to create a CNAME record for mail.yourdomain.com that points to www.fastmail.com.
