Mailbox webhooks are now in beta. They give your app or agent a simple way to react when a new message reaches a Paxmail inbox.

If access is enabled for your account, Webhooks will appear in account settings. Pick a mailbox, add a public HTTPS endpoint, and Paxmail will send a signed message.received event when new mail arrives.

The event includes the mailbox, folder, and IMAP IDs needed to find the message. It does not include the body or attachments. When your app needs the full message, it can fetch it over IMAP with an app password.

Each webhook has its own signing secret. Paxmail retries temporary failures, and the delivery log keeps the result of each attempt for 30 days.

You can change the destination, rotate the secret, or turn delivery off without deleting the webhook. When delivery is disabled, the settings stay put and Paxmail stops calling the endpoint until you turn it back on.

Please email support@paxmail.cc if you'd like to join the beta for this feature.
