Mailfence vs VibeMail

Mailfence is an email service with end-to-end encryption and access through the web, iOS and Android. Its free plan provides web access and 1 GB total storage, split between 500 MB for email and 500 MB for documents. Paid plans increase storage and, depending on tier, add aliases, custom domains and mail-client protocols. Base costs €2.50/mo (annual) and includes 11 GB total storage, 5 GB for email and 10 aliases, but no custom domain or POP, IMAP, SMTP or EAS access. Entry costs €3.50/mo (annual), with 40 GB total storage, 10 GB for email, 50 aliases, custom domains and POP, IMAP, SMTP and ActiveSync. Pro costs €9.50 per month and includes 78 GB total storage, up to 100 aliases, custom domains, protocol access and priority support. Ultra costs €29.00 per month, billed monthly, with 225 GB total storage, up to 200 aliases, custom domains, protocol access and priority support. Mailfence is headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, and was founded in 1999.

VibeMail provides encrypted private email with multiple addresses, custom domains, and a transactional email API. It runs on Android, iOS, web, and through an API. Message bodies are encrypted at rest and in transit; the maker says it cannot read mail sealed with a password-derived key. Each alias has its own encryption identity. VibeMail says it shows no ads, does not profile users, and does not train models on customer mail. Incoming mail is scanned for spam and malware before encryption. The API supports templates, webhooks, delivery tracking, and suppression handling, with SDKs for TypeScript, Python, Go, and Rust, plus MCP and REST access. IMAPS, submission, and POP3S are supported, and the maker says Apple Mail, Gmail, and Outlook on mobile can connect through IMAP and SMTP. The free plan costs nothing forever with one encrypted address, 500 MB storage, and web access. Paid plans start at $2.99 a month; overage sends cost $0.60 per 1,000.
