Every layer, built to protect delivery.

Not a feature checklist bolted onto a shared relay - a mail server built from the ground up, where authentication, reputation, and visibility are the actual architecture.

A delivery engine built for speed and reliability

ZeroHop MTA connects directly to your recipient's mail server for every send - no third-party relay sitting between you and the inbox.

  • Direct-to-MX delivery, not relay-based
  • In-flight DKIM signing on your own domain key
  • Connection pooling for real sending throughput
  • Instant delivery-failure feedback, not a nightly report

Domain authentication, without the manual checklist

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are non-negotiable for real deliverability. The setup wizard generates everything and verifies it against real DNS - not a guess.

  • Automatic DKIM key generation
  • SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records generated for you
  • One-click, real DNS verification
  • Optional automatic setup via Cloudflare

IP reputation, tracked and protected automatically

Every IP in your pool is scored independently. New IPs warm up on a schedule; abusive patterns get suspended before they damage your sender reputation.

  • Per-IP reputation scoring and history
  • Automatic warm-up scheduling for new IPs
  • Abuse-based auto-suspension
  • Nothing shared with any other customer

Bounces and complaints, handled in real time

Delivery failures feed directly into reputation protection the moment they happen - not discovered hours later when the damage is already done.

  • Real-time bounce detection and classification
  • Spam complaint tracking
  • Automatic feed into IP reputation scoring
  • No manual log-checking required

A real campaign dashboard, not a bare command line

Lists, templates, scheduled sending, and a live sending console - everything in one place, built for people who need to actually manage campaigns, not just trigger sends.

  • Lists, templates, and scheduled sends in one place
  • Real-time sending console
  • Built-in HTML template editor

A real inbox, not just a way to send

ZeroHop MTA receives mail natively on your own domain. Reply, forward, and see authentication status directly in your dashboard.

  • Native inbound mail receiving on your own domain
  • Reply and forward directly from your dashboard
  • SPF/DKIM verification shown on every received message

Full control of your server, no ticket required

Reboot or shut down your dedicated server directly from your dashboard - securely authenticated and audit-logged, not buried behind support.

  • Reboot or shut down from your dashboard
  • No support ticket required for basic control
  • Securely authenticated, audit-logged power actions

Billing that runs itself

Automatic monthly renewal, real invoices, and reminder emails before every charge - not something you have to remember to manage.

  • Automatic monthly renewal via PayPal
  • Real invoices, generated and downloadable
  • Reminder emails before every renewal

Unsubscribe handling, built in from day one

Every email includes a working unsubscribe link. Opt-outs are removed from future sends automatically - not a manual list-cleaning chore.

  • Unsubscribe link on every campaign, automatically
  • Opt-outs excluded from all future sends
  • No manual list maintenance required

Schedule it, walk away

Set a campaign to send at the right moment instead of sitting at your desk waiting to hit send.

  • Send immediately or schedule for later
  • Automatic dispatch at the scheduled time
  • No manual trigger required

Build once, send many times

Save a campaign as a reusable template instead of starting from a blank editor every time.

  • Save any campaign as a template
  • Reuse across future campaigns
  • No rebuilding from scratch

See exactly where your opens come from

Real breakdown by device and email client, built from actual tracking data - not an estimate.

A/B testing that picks the winner for you

Send two variants to a sample of your list, and the system automatically sends whichever performed better - by clicks, with opens as the tiebreaker - to everyone else.

  • Test subject lines or full content, variant A vs. B
  • Sent to a sample first, winner decided automatically
  • Ranked by clicks, ties broken by opens
  • Remaining list gets the winning variant automatically
variant A → sample sent…
variant B → sample sent…
waiting for engagement…
variant B leads on clicks…

Send to the right people, not just everyone

Narrow a campaign beyond "everyone on this list" - by a custom field, or by how someone engaged with a past campaign.

  • Filter by any custom field (plan, region, anything you track)
  • Filter by engagement with a past campaign
  • Target people who opened, clicked, or didn't engage
  • Combine filters for precise targeting
field: plan = pro…
engagement: opened last campaign…

Set it up once, let it run

Trigger-based automations that enroll subscribers and send on their behalf, without you starting a campaign by hand every time.

  • Trigger-based enrollment, not manual sending
  • Runs continuously in the background
  • Managed from its own dedicated dashboard section

Beyond {{first_name}} - real, structured personalization

Merge tags for anything you track, plus auto-generated system tags like invoice IDs and barcodes - built directly into the send, not bolted on with a plugin.

  • Custom merge tags from any subscriber field
  • Auto-generated invoice IDs per recipient
  • Auto-generated barcodes, embedded directly in the email
  • Personalized subject lines, not just body content
