Computers and ecology are often not the same thing. Computing is extremely energy-intensive and therefore, computer tools such as our emails are highly polluting. We want to reconcile these two worlds by using the revenues generated by the IT department to promote ecology and have a direct impact on our planet and its ecosystems. Several web hosting companies will praise you for their ecological merit(s), but let's be reasonable. Ecology and IT are not compatible. Computing uses a phenomenal amount of energy, generates a lot of heat and uses non-recyclable components. One of the possible solutions to act for ecology via IT is to use a service like Ecomail which will reuse the money generated for ecological projects. There are also other services such as Ecosia that use the proceeds to plant trees.

Oui ! Nous sommes très heureux d'avoir réussi à réaliser 33705.5€ de dons pour des associations qui agissent sur le terrain. Pour les deux premiers dons, il s'agit de l'association Sea Shepherd et de l'association Ferus.

We offer the Ecomail email box at 12€ per year. Of the 12€, 2€ are paid to the State for VAT. 5€ are donated to associations that act for our environment and 5€ are used for the operation of the service, for technical support, machines, energy...

The servers necessary for the operation of Ecomail are hosted by the company Online.net (ILLIAD) in a French datacenter (Paris) using 100% renewable energy. Currently, we have 3 machines: 1 main server, 1 backup server synchronized on the main server, 1 backup server.

We try to be present on different points. The first is of course the support of the associations that act on the ground through donations. Secondly, we try on a daily basis to make our users aware of digital pollution. To do this, we have created a unique webmail interface that alerts users when they store a lot of messages. We thus invite them to sort through the messages and keep only the essential ones. Through this awareness, we wish to inform our users that any email stored is an email that causes pollution. In the future, we would like to finance an Ecomail apiary and why not, other initiatives around energy, biodiversity and environmental education.

Yes, of course, if you are sensitive to ecology, you did not wait for us to take action in this direction (Donations to associations, nature site ... etc.). Via our service, we propose you to act once again, but with the counterpart of being able to use your email box!

Email boxes have 5 GB of disk space. They are hosted on Cloud servers in France with high availability hard disks ensuring a very good availability of your mailbox. You can send and receive attachments of up to 50 MB.

We use Roundcube Open Source webmail. Around it, we have added a "Made in Ecomail" interface with various community features. We want to create a community around your mailbox and above all, we want to be totally transparent with you. In the interface, you can find statistics and Ecomail's accounting. Everything we earn is shown, and everything that is used is also shown.

We operate completely transparently. That is to say, we inform our users in real time of the revenues that the service generates. Each action carried out by Ecomail is described on the "Our actions" page of the site, and sometimes even in a video published on Youtube and WeTube (the latter has an interesting concept to reduce the ecological footprint of a video). We also send a newsletter for each action carried out. Finally, we can provide proof of donations upon request if the evidence already present on the site is not sufficient.
