Forward Email provides free email forwarding for custom domains with an open-source, privacy‑focused service. It offers API access to manage domains, aliases, messages, calendars, contacts and webhooks, supports SMTP, IMAP, POP3, CalDAV and CardDAV, and includes features like encrypted SQLite mailboxes, DKIM, SPF, DMARC, and detailed analytics. The platform serves over 1.6 million domains, offers unlimited aliases, and provides SDKs and client apps for desktop, mobile and terminal environments.
Forward Email publishes 16 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Account API, Aliases API, Calendar Events API, and 13 more. Tagged areas include Email Forwarding, Email Hosting, Open Source, API, and Secure Email.
The Forward Email catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification, 1 JSON-LD context, and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Forward Email’s developer surface includes support, documentation, engineering blog, getting-started guide, API reference, authentication, and 27 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Show this score on your site.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
Idempotency+9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
A2A Agent Card+8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Rate-Limit Signaling+7 pts — OpenAPI responses document X-RateLimit-* / RateLimit headers (verified), else a rate_limits artifact or RateLimits link (documented)
Delegated User Identity+6 pts — a served discovery document listing authorization_code in grant_types_supported (served), else an oauth2 authorizationCode flow or openIdConnect declared in an OpenAPI (documented)
