## Getting started

- [FlareMail setup guide](/help/setup-guide/index.md): From free signup to a working inbox in five steps — open the app, sign in, and connect it to Cloudflare.
- [Using multiple accounts](/help/multiple-accounts/index.md): Run several mailboxes side by side — each account connects to its own Worker, with its own aliases and a default for sending.

## Mail flow

- [Add a sending domain](/help/add-a-sending-domain/index.md): Add one of your domains right inside the app — FlareMail uses your Cloudflare account to onboard sending, write the DNS, and route replies back to you. No leaving the app.
- [Connect Cloudflare Email Routing](/help/connect-cloudflare-email-routing/index.md): The one step outside the app: point your domain's incoming mail at the FlareMail Worker so messages reach your inbox.
- [Sending from your domain](/help/sending-from-your-domain/index.md): Send to anyone — not just verified addresses — by connecting Resend so outbound mail leaves through a reliable provider.

## Features

- [Labels & filter rules](/help/labels-and-rules/index.md): Color-code your mail with labels, then automate sorting with rules that run as soon as a message arrives.
- [Compose tools](/help/compose-tools/index.md): Send Later, Undo Send, and reusable templates — compose with timing, a safety net, and less retyping.
- [AI assist](/help/ai-assist/index.md): Polish drafts, summarize threads, and write in your voice — with FlareMail’s managed AI or your own API key.
- [Webhooks](/help/webhooks/index.md): Push inbound, outbound, and failure events to your own URL — with secrets, tests, and delivery history.
- [Connect an AI bot with MCP](/help/mcp-bots/index.md): Give Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, or a custom agent a key so it can draft, send, and read mail in your FlareMail inbox.
- [Setup Doctor](/help/setup-doctor/index.md): One-click health check for the Worker, D1, R2, outbound sending, and Cloudflare credentials.
- [Contacts](/help/contacts/index.md): Browse people FlareMail already knows from your senders, recipients, and sending addresses — then compose in one click.

## Advanced

- [Privacy & tracking protection](/help/privacy-and-tracking/index.md): Opening an email shouldn't tell the sender where you are or when you read it. Here's what FlareMail blocks, and how to tune it.
- [Admin settings](/help/admin-settings/index.md): See how AI agents and crawlers discover FlareMail — keywords, agents, and recent hits on sendwithflare.com.
- [Self-host the backend](/help/self-host-the-backend/index.md): Technical users can run the FlareMail Worker on their own Cloudflare account with a single provisioning script.
- [Troubleshooting](/help/troubleshooting/index.md): Quick fixes for the handful of things that can go wrong: a blank window, “Not connected”, an expired session, or missing mail.
