In support of #PrivacyAwarenessWeek2026, OAIC, and #SmallBusinessWeek, our COO Bek Fraser reflects on her years running a consultancy.
"My clients trusted me with deeply sensitive information. I went with a mainstream provider because I didn't know what I didn't know."
The right email infrastructure shouldn't be a quick decision. It's central to the trust your clients place in you.

The OAIC's Privacy Awareness Week theme is about building trust when complaints are resolved.
True, but we think it starts earlier. Whether you scan your customers' mail. Whether you sell their data. Whether you build features around what they want, or what your shareholders want.
You're the customer here, not the product. Always have been.

Fastmail now has an MCP endpoint: https://api.fastmail.com/mcp.
MCP is an open standard, not tied to any one vendor. It sits alongside IMAP, CalDAV, and CardDAV as another way to connect to your email, calendar, and contacts. Optional, OAuth-gated, with read-only, write, and send permission levels.
You pick the client. Your data, your choice.

"Free" business email is one of the most expensive choices a small business can make. Gmail is free because your data is the product. When you're handling client contracts and financial info, that's a real liability.
Fastmail gives your business custom domains, fast human support, and a privacy-first approach, without the enterprise-tier price tag. Your domain belongs to you. No lock-in.

We've just shipped a big update to Fastmail — multi-window support is here.
Hold ⇧ Shift when clicking reply or compose to open it in a new window. Use ⇧ Shift + R to reply, or ⇧ Shift + A to reply all. Replies now appear inline, so you stay in context while you write. Plus a cleaner compose view and drag-and-drop recipients.

For #SaferInternetDay: Even with tracker blocking and a privacy-focused browser, using a surveillance-based search engine undermines your privacy stack.
We've joined Kagi's "Friends of Kagi" program. Kagi is a paid search engine with no tracking, no behavioural profiling, and no ad-based business model—aligned with our approach to sustainable, user-funded services.
