Create an inbox and connect from another browser

Save both the complete email address and its connection password. While the inbox is active, those credentials let you reconnect after changing browsers or losing the original session.

Create your first inbox

  1. Open the inbox homepage and choose New mailbox. Visiting the page alone does not create an inbox.
  2. Choose an available domain or automatic assignment, then choose 1 hour, 24 hours or 1 week. The default is 1 week.
  3. Enter a connection password of 12–128 characters, or leave it blank for a generated 24-character password.
  4. Submit the form. Save or copy the complete address and password from the credentials dialog before choosing Done or the close button.

Save credentials before closing

The credentials dialog can copy the address or password and download a plain-text credentials file. Clicking the backdrop or pressing Escape does not close that dialog; Done and the close button do.

After closing, the interface does not show the same password again. Do not share the password or a downloaded credentials file. A password you entered yourself is the one you need to save.

Connect from another browser

  1. Open zipxmail and choose Connect a mailbox.
  2. Enter the full email address, including its domain, and the saved password.
  3. Submit and wait for the connection to complete. A browser session can connect up to five active inboxes.
  4. If the connection fails, check the exact address, password and inbox validity. Repeated attempts may trigger rate limits.

What reconnecting cannot recover

Reconnecting does not restore an expired or destroyed inbox. If you lose both the original authorized session and the password, the normal flow cannot recover access.

Connecting a weekly inbox counts as use, but it cannot extend the inbox past the six-calendar-month maximum. Connecting does not extend 1-hour or 24-hour inboxes.
