Fose

Email that stays between you and the person you sent it to

Fose encrypts every message on your device before it is sent. We host the mailbox and run the infrastructure, and we still cannot read a word of it.

Features

Everything a mailbox should do, privately

Encryption is the foundation that everything else is built on. Fose is made to replace the mail client you use every day.

Custom domains

Use the address people already know you by

Bring your own domain and Fose handles the rest. MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC records are generated for you and checked continuously. Every mailbox on the domain is encrypted the same way.

  • Guided DNS setup with live verification
  • Unlimited mailboxes on Pro domains
  • Catch-all addressing and per-domain rules

Aliases

Give out an alias instead of your real address

Create an alias for each shop, newsletter or forum. If one starts attracting spam, switch it off. Your real address was never exposed in the first place.

  • Turn any alias off without losing its history
  • Replies are sent from the alias automatically
  • See exactly which alias a message arrived on

Security

What Fose actually runs

Anyone can claim their email is secure. Here is precisely what Fose runs, so you can check it against what you already trust.

X25519 · Ed25519

Forward-secret key exchange

Ephemeral ECDHE for key agreement and Ed25519 for signatures. A key compromised tomorrow cannot decrypt what you sent today.

AES-256-GCM

Chunked attachment encryption

Attachments are encrypted in the browser and split into individually authenticated chunks, so file size never weakens the guarantee.

WebCrypto

Keys that never leave your device

Encryption and decryption run locally. Our servers only ever hold encrypted blobs, so there is nothing on them we could read or hand over.

FIDO2 · WebAuthn

Hardware-key authentication

YubiKey, Titan and any FIDO2 key work for both sign-in and message signing, which shuts down phishing and account takeover.

SOC 2 Type II

Independently audited security controls and processes.

ISO 27001

Certified information security management system.

GDPR compliant

Data handling that meets EU data protection standards.

Common questions

Everything you need to know about how Fose works. Still unsure? Get in touch.

Getting started

How secure is Fose's encryption?

Fose uses AES-256 for all mailbox contents, with end-to-end encryption ensuring that only you and your intended recipients can read the messages. Our zero-knowledge architecture means we cannot access your data.

Why can't I use other email clients with Fose?

To maintain true end-to-end encryption, Fose requires the use of our dedicated email client. This lets us implement encryption in a place we can verify, and guarantee that your communications remain private.

What makes Fose's email client special?

Our client is built from the ground up with security in mind. It features a modern interface, real-time encryption, secure attachments, and privacy features like self-destructing messages and verification of recipient identity.

What happens if I forget my password?

Because of our zero-knowledge encryption, we cannot reset your password. During account setup you receive a recovery key that you can use to regain access. Keep this recovery key somewhere safe.

Where is my data stored?

Your encrypted data is stored in secure data centres across multiple jurisdictions for redundancy. Our primary operations are based in Belize, whose privacy laws underpin how we handle requests for data.

Can I migrate my existing emails to Fose?

While you can't connect other email accounts directly to Fose, we provide a secure import tool for migrating your existing mail. Everything you import is encrypted on the way in.

Encryption & infrastructure

What encryption protocols does Fose use for key exchange?

Fose employs X25519 for key exchange and key agreement, combined with Ed25519 for digital signatures. For the initial key exchange we use forward-secret ECDHE, so even if a private key is compromised later, past messages cannot be decrypted.

How does Fose handle attachments and large files?

Attachments are encrypted client-side using AES-256-GCM before upload. Large files are split into encrypted chunks and use streaming encryption to handle files of any size. Each chunk is individually encrypted and authenticated.

What prevents man-in-the-middle attacks?

Fose implements certificate pinning, DANE (DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities), and strict transport security. We also use subresource integrity checks and maintain a public key transparency log to prevent unauthorised certificate authorities from issuing rogue certificates for our domain.

Does Fose support hardware security keys?

Yes. Fose supports FIDO2/WebAuthn security keys such as YubiKey and Google Titan, for both account authentication and email signing. We recommend them as the strongest protection against phishing and account takeover.

How is the zero-knowledge architecture implemented?

All encryption and decryption happens locally in your browser using the WebCrypto API. Your private keys never leave your device. The server only ever sees encrypted blobs, and never has access to plaintext data or encryption keys.

How does Fose handle metadata protection?

We minimise metadata collection and encrypt every metadata field we can, including subject lines and recipient information. Padding and traffic obfuscation guard against timing analysis, and batch processing makes traffic analysis harder.
