This is brilliant. But as many of the PH audiences are technical, I am also interested in how you guys have accomplished it! But of course, it probably is your secret sauce. All in all, this is very very useful tool. Back when Google Apps had a free version (yes they did!!) you could sign up and have your own domain based email, all on the GMail platform. A few years ago, Google Apps no longer served the free version. I really haven't seen any other services that offered the same thing. And even if they did, the power of GMail inbox is in my opinion, too great (conversation-based email, SPAM filters just to name a few). I haven't tried Nuage, but if it does deliver, I think this will help a lot of entrepreneurs who want a domain-based email address, powered by GMail, which you don't have to pay for! (or do we? how much are you guys going to charge?) Well done.

@eric_bae Thank for sharing your interesting thoughts. Basically our idea is to build a redirection on top of your current gmail address. We do not try to rebuild how email works just enable you the possibility to add a custom name using our own SMTP stack to your Gmail. It doesn't change the way you use your actual gmail account as it is just a redirection.

This is a very cool service and as soon as I get setup I will be doing a video over on my youtube channel about it. So I'm assuming when I signup and someone emails me at Contact@UncleJessy.com it will go to my gmail account i listed... but what account will it go back as? My gmail or my contact address? Very simple service for us not super technical and busy folks.

@unclejessy4real your assumption was correct. You will be able to receive emails directly in your current gmail account. Concerning the sending part, Nuage will provide you an identity inside your gmail account, so you can choose under which email you want to send email. Here is a screenshot of what it looks like http://imgur.com/a/p9j9L

I was desperately in a need of such product. Have been using pathetic Yahoo client for my WordPress.com forwarder email. I'm 403 in line, hope to get one soon.

thank you thank you thank you--I can but I hate messing with DNS and I've been putting off handling the email side of things for kikischirr.com even though I started using MailChimp infrequently--and the rate at which my emails hit spam is so much higher because I've linked them to my Gmail. I doubt it, but do you think MailChimp or Gmail will "see through" this?

Alright @ar_aubry, just signed up and I'm about to go hard on ya with feedback. Beware! 😜 Disclaimer: I'm a developer and I use GSuite. 1. Landing page way too blank, it was creepy lol. I was reluctant to sign up. (But I did). Ya need to address FUDs and more stuff (pricing is huge) 2. I get that you redirect emails to gmail, however - if I send email or reply to email will it show it sent as my domain email, or gmail? 3. I did feel a little conned when I went through the whole sign up process and then it said wait in line. But I get that this maybe what you have to do, to validate the idea. 4. Didn't really like being last in line. Perhaps fake it a little bit and place people in the middle. Being last is kinda harsh lol. 5. My biggest question: Who is your target customer? Right now I'm seeing a solo entrepreneur who likes to throw up products on the web. However, for any serious company - they have the dev resources needed to create a custom domain to gmail connection. I can't see a company paying $2/mo for all their employees when they could just have their dev person setup it up. That being said, if you are going for the eCommerce crowd or like users who on on Wix/Shopify etc (who have no clue about anything about websites) you could have potential there. Hopefully Wix/Shopify peeps don't have an existing solution or try to copy you. Bonus Question: How did you make the waiting in line thing? Is this custom or are you using a service? I need one of these thingys myself lol. Thanks!

This is an absolutely fantastic execution for those without sufficient time or technical knowledge. Definitely will be forwarding this to a few mates who always ask me about how I got my email address.

From first glances this seems like a pretty good solution for the less technical minded. I personally use Google Apps for my personal email, but if you're just looking to add an email address to your domain, then it looks like the best option.
