Getting started
From sign-up to a sorted inbox in a few minutes.
1. Sign in
Open app.montaramail.web.id and sign up with your email and a password, a magic link, or Google. A password sign-up sends a verification email; confirm it before you sign in with the password.
Running your own server?
The Community Edition has no sign-up: its only account is the super user set in SUPER_USER. See Self-hosting.
2. Create an organization
Mailboxes, models and AI settings belong to an organization. Create one from the organization switcher at the top of the sidebar. You become its owner, and you can belong to as many as you like, for example one for work and one for personal mail.
3. Choose a model
Open Control Center › AI Providers and add the model your organization's AI features use: an OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible endpoint with its API key, or a self-hosted model. Without one, the organization uses the server's fallback model when there is one, and otherwise gets no AI features. See AI providers.
4. Connect a mailbox
Open Accounts, pick your provider and sign in with an app password (or OAuth, where the server offers it). The first sync takes the newest 50 messages of each folder; after that every new message arrives within the sync interval, 5 minutes by default. See Connect mailboxes.
5. Work through your inbox
- New inbox mail is labelled Important, Low priority or Broadcast; filter by label from the sidebar.
- Open a mail for an AI Email Summary, reply suggestions and skills such as translation.
- The AI assistant answers questions about your mailbox and proposes replies for you to approve.
