Stop giving casting your
hotmail address

Take a real email address on an acting domain. Everything sent to it arrives in the inbox you already read, and you can reply from it too. Nothing to install, nothing to check.

Your new address

  • Live in about ten seconds
  • Keeps working forever
  • Up to 3 addresses

Here is the whole product

There is no app, no new inbox and no password to remember. Mail simply arrives where it already does.

A casting director writes to you

They use the address on your resume:
yourname@actoremail.com

We pass it straight on

Nothing is stored, opened or filtered.
forwarded, not held

It lands in your normal inbox

The one on your phone right now:
you@gmail.com

And it works the other way too

Once you have set your address up for sending, your reply goes out from yourname@actoremail.com, not from the inbox it happens to be sitting in. The casting director never sees the address behind it. That takes about five minutes, once, and the steps are below.

Pick the domain that fits you

All of these are ours, and every one of them is included. Take up to 3.

@for.actor Suits anyone

Replying from your new address

Receiving needs no setup at all. Sending takes one pass through your mail settings. Here it is for Gmail, start to finish.

Gmail, step by step

Free Gmail or Google Workspace. Do this on a computer once, and your phone picks it up.

  1. 1 Open Gmail on a computer. The mobile apps cannot add an address, but they will use it once it exists.
  2. 2 Click the gear icon, top right, then See all settings.
  3. 3 Open the Accounts and Import tab (in Workspace it is just Accounts).
  4. 4 Next to Send mail as, click Add another email address.
  5. 5 Put your name as you want it to appear, then your new address. Leave "Treat as an alias" ticked and click Next.
  6. 6 Enter the SMTP server, port, username and password from your setup page. Choose Secured connection using TLS. Click Add Account.
  7. 7 Google emails a confirmation code to your new address. It arrives in this same Gmail inbox, because that is where your forward points. Paste the code in.
  8. 8 Back on the Accounts tab, pick whether new mail should come from your Gmail address or from the address you are replying to. The second is usually what you want.

From now on the From field in a new message is a dropdown. Pick your new address and the reply comes straight back to you.

The server, port and password those steps ask for are on your setup page the moment your address exists. Every other mail app is here.

Where this works

Mail arrives everywhere - a forward is just mail. This is about which apps can also send as your address.
Best

Sends as you, cleanly

Signs in to our outgoing server, so your mail is authenticated as your address. Nothing is added to it.

  • Gmail Free Gmail and Google Workspace
  • Zoho Mail Free and paid plans
  • Apple Mail Mac, iPhone and iPad
  • Outlook desktop app Windows and Mac, not outlook.com in a browser

  • Our webmail Nothing to set up
Works

Sends as you, through them

Verifies the address then sends from its own servers, so some recipients see a small "via" note.

  • Fastmail Sends through Fastmail
Receiving only

Will not send as you

Your mail still arrives here perfectly well. To send, use our webmail in a browser - there is nothing to set up.
