在一項非正式的評比中,Fastmail的安全性與[[Gmail]]並列A級第二,A級第一是[https://Mail.de Mail.de]{{Wayback|url=https://mail.de/ |date=20200901024215 }}。A級的條件:除了User - Server間的傳輸用TLS 1.2加密之外,Server - Server的送信、收信也必須支援TLS 1.2加密,才能保證傳輸的任何一段過程皆不被偷窺。世界各國Email服務中能達到頂尖的不到5家。但Fastmail由於伺服器設在侵犯網路隱私惡名昭彰的美國(關鍵字:[[稜鏡計畫]]),因此雖有技術上的安全性,仍不能保證美國政府不透過施壓業者的方式、不需竊聽即可取得通訊內容;所以Fastmail和Gmail在這項評比中被列為第二。<ref>{{cite web|title=Email大小事:安全性、加密技術、服務業者的選擇|url=http://rechtsgut.pixnet.net/blog/post/31156447-email%E5%A4%A7%E5%B0%8F%E4%BA%8B%EF%BC%9A%E5%AE%89%E5%85%A8%E6%80%A7%E3%80%81%E5%8A%A0%E5%AF%86%E6%8A%80%E8%A1%93%E3%80%81%E6%9C%8D%E5%8B%99%E6%A5%AD%E8%80%85%E7%9A%84|accessdate=2013-09-20|date=2013-09-09|work=披星戴月 後知後覺|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131031114759/http://rechtsgut.pixnet.net/blog/post/31156447-email%E5%A4%A7%E5%B0%8F%E4%BA%8B%EF%BC%9A%E5%AE%89%E5%85%A8%E6%80%A7%E3%80%81%E5%8A%A0%E5%AF%86%E6%8A%80%E8%A1%93%E3%80%81%E6%9C%8D%E5%8B%99%E6%A5%AD%E8%80%85%E7%9A%84|archivedate=2013-10-31|deadurl=yes}}</ref>{{Better source|reason=此段描述的“评比”来自2013年的一篇个人博客。建议替换为近期权威机构的评比。|date=2021年7月}}

最初建立时,Fastmail 支持其他邮件服务供应商没有提供的新功能。早期,这些功能包括电子邮件传输和访问的便捷性和速度、个性化、[[IMAP]]<ref name="SMHerald">{{cite news|last=Wright|first=Charles|title=The host with the most|url=http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/10/17/1034561201555.html|access-date=10 September 2010|date=2002-10-17|work=The Sydney Morning Herald|archive-date=2008-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080224190423/http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/10/17/1034561201555.html|dead-url=no}}</ref> 和 [[SSL]]<ref>{{cite book|last=Fleishman|first=Glenn|title=Take Control of Your AirPort Network|year=2005|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=V7M4ZQ8f408C&q=%22FastMail.FM%22&pg=PA106|page=106|isbn=9780975950357|access-date=2016-12-06|archive-date=2023-07-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230720024004/https://books.google.com/books?id=V7M4ZQ8f408C&q=%22FastMail.FM%22&pg=PA106|dead-url=no}}</ref> 支持,以及通过独立公共论坛<ref name="EMD">{{cite web|title=Welcome to the Fastmail.FM General Discussions Forum|url=http://www.emaildiscussions.com/showthread.php?t=15141|access-date=2023-07-20|archive-date=2023-07-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230720024006/http://www.emaildiscussions.com/showthread.php?t=15141|dead-url=no}}</ref>和维基提供的用户支持。多年来,这些功能变得司空见惯,但Fastmail 仍然提供了 [[WebDAV]]、安全 [[LDAP]]、机会性服务器间加密、通过最小化单点故障实现的可靠性以及通过 Sieve 进行可定制过滤等差异化功能。
2014-10-23 ,Fastmail 主域名 <code>fastmail.fm</code> 改为 <code>fastmail.com</code>。<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blog.fastmail.com/2014/10/23/fastmail-has-moved-to-fastmail-com-fastmail-com-email-addresses-now-available/|title=FastMail has moved to fastmail.com, @fastmail.com email addresses now available|website=Blog.fastmail.com|accessdate=2016-12-06|archive-date=2016-12-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161220235810/https://blog.fastmail.com/2014/10/23/fastmail-has-moved-to-fastmail-com-fastmail-com-email-addresses-now-available/|dead-url=no}}</ref>

20141023 ,Fastmail 网站的域名 <code>fastmail.fm</code> 切换到了 <code>fastmail.com</code>。<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blog.fastmail.com/2014/10/23/fastmail-has-moved-to-fastmail-com-fastmail-com-email-addresses-now-available/|title=FastMail has moved to fastmail.com, @fastmail.com email addresses now available|website=Blog.fastmail.com|access-date=2016-12-06|archive-date=2016-12-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161220235810/https://blog.fastmail.com/2014/10/23/fastmail-has-moved-to-fastmail-com-fastmail-com-email-addresses-now-available/|dead-url=no}}</ref>

截至 2018 年 12 月,Fastmail 和所有其他澳大利亚公司均须遵守《{{link-en|协助和访问法案|Mass surveillance in Australia#Telecommunications and Other Legislation Amendment (Assistance and Access) Act|协助和访问法案}}》,该法案迫使他们在必要的调查过程中协助执法部门访问加密通信。虽然 Fastmail 表示他们的服务没有“受到重大影响”,因为他们已经遵守了《{{link-en|电信法|Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Amendment (Data Retention) Act 2015|电信法}}》的规定,但客户仍对该法案的影响表示了担忧。<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.itnews.com.au/news/fastmail-loses-customers-faces-calls-to-move-over-anti-encryption-laws-519783|title=FastMail loses customers, faces calls to move over anti-encryption laws|website=iTnews|access-date=2019-02-25|archive-date=2023-10-03|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231003145843/https://www.itnews.com.au/news/fastmail-loses-customers-faces-calls-to-move-over-anti-encryption-laws-519783|dead-url=no}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-46463029|title=Australia passes encryption-breaking laws|work=BBC News|date=2018-12-07|access-date=2019-02-25|language=en-GB|archive-date=2023-10-23|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231023032146/https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-46463029|dead-url=no}}</ref>

2019 年 6 月 24 日,Fastmail 推出了焕然一新的外观,采用了新的图标、应用程序图标、颜色和网站。新图标中,品牌的拼写由'''FastMail'''换成了'''Fastmail'''。<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://fastmail.blog/2019/06/24/fastmail-new-logo/|title=A new look, logo, and website for Fastmail|website=Fastmail Blog|access-date=2019-06-25|archive-date=2019-06-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190625012731/https://fastmail.blog/2019/06/24/fastmail-new-logo/|dead-url=yes}}</ref>

现状Online

Fastmail 是一家位于澳大利亚墨尔本的电子邮件托管公司[1]。除了 Fastmail 品牌服务外,该公司还运营邮件列表服务 Topicbox 和 2015 年收购的电子邮件服务 Pobox[2]。Fastmail拥有数十个提供服务的域名,至今Fastmail在国際上仍是最受欢迎的IMAP邮件服务之一,而在中国则受到GmailIMAP的支持的冲击。

该公司于 2010 年被 Opera Software 收购,但于 2013 年通过员工买断再次独立[3]。其服务器位于新泽西州布里奇沃特和华盛顿州西雅图[4]

历史

[编辑]
FastMail 在 2019 年 6 月之前的旧图标

Fastmail 于 1999 年由 Rob Mueller、Bruce Davey 和 Jeremy Howard 创建,旨在为 Optimal Decisions Group 的客户提供电子邮件服务。

Fastmail 提供的唯一产品是电子邮件服务(以及随附的配件),但从 2010 年到 2013 年,该产品线归 Opera Software(以其网络浏览器而闻名)所有。[5][6][7][8]通过员工回购,公司再次完全独立。[9]

2012 年 10 月 18 日,Fastmail 宣布停止免费账号注册。[10]现有的免费 Fastmail 帐户不会被终止,但如果免费帐户因超过 120 天未登录而被停用,则无法重新激活。该公司表示,他们决定将 Fastmail 定位为仅提供付费帐户的“优质品牌”。

最初建立时,Fastmail 支持其他邮件服务供应商没有提供的新功能。早期,这些功能包括电子邮件传输和访问的便捷性和速度、个性化、IMAP[11]SSL[12] 支持,以及通过独立公共论坛[13]和维基提供的用户支持。多年来,这些功能变得司空见惯,但Fastmail 仍然提供了 WebDAV、安全 LDAP、机会性服务器间加密、通过最小化单点故障实现的可靠性以及通过 Sieve 进行可定制过滤等差异化功能。

2003年,邮件服务器转移到 messagingengine.com 域名。[14]

2014 年 10 月 23 日,Fastmail 将主网站的域名从 fastmail.fm 切换到了 fastmail.com[15]

随着 Fastmail 转向订阅制,所有现存的“访客”和“一次性付款”会员电子邮件帐户都在 2017 年 7 月 31 日终止。[16]现有用户可以选择以折扣价转为订阅用户或要求退还一次性付款。[17]

截至 2018 年 12 月,Fastmail 和所有其他澳大利亚公司均须遵守《协助和访问法案英语Mass surveillance in Australia#Telecommunications and Other Legislation Amendment (Assistance and Access) Act》,该法案迫使他们在必要的调查过程中协助执法部门访问加密通信。虽然 Fastmail 表示他们的服务没有“受到重大影响”,因为他们已经遵守了《电信法英语Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Amendment (Data Retention) Act 2015》的规定,但客户仍对该法案的影响表示了担忧。[18][19]

2019 年 6 月 24 日,Fastmail 推出了焕然一新的外观,采用了新的图标、应用程序图标、颜色和网站。新图标中,品牌的拼写由FastMail换成了Fastmail[20]

特点

[编辑]

Fastmail 提供多个域名(除了一个以“fastmail”开头的域名,其他均为不同的顶级域名)供用户选择,同时还允许客户使用自己的域名。[21]用户还可以在 Web 邮箱页面中创建日历和笔记,并通过 IMAPCalDav 协议远程同步。[22][23]

技术

[编辑]

开发人员中有一位 Cyrus IMAP 开源软件项目的积极贡献者[24],还有 Perl 模块 Mail::IMAPTalk 的主要开发人员和维护人员。[25]Fastmail 支持自由软件网络邮件接口 Roundcube[26] 的开发,还开发了一种新的开放电子邮件协议 JMAP[27]

插入 USB 接口 的 YubiKey

Fastmail 还支持使用 YubiKey 的在登录时进行双因子认证。虽然将一个或多个 YubiKey 与 Fastmail 帐户关联不会影响正常登录,但它允许仅使用 YubiKey 及其自动生成的一次性密码登录电子邮件帐户,使其适合在公共计算机上访问电子邮件。据 Fastmail 团队称,仅使用 YubiKey 的登录功能已于 2016 年 7 月停止使用,因为它很少被使用。[28]

该电子邮件服务还支持 U2FTOTP 协议作为辅助登录因素,允许用户使用密码和安全令牌在登录时加强额外的安全防护。
