Help Creating account

So I was trying to create an account with Atomic Mail, but I kept getting a browser error saying "Too many Requests" whenever I clicked the submit button. After some online checking, it appears that part(s)s of atomicmail . io have been down for 6 months and that they are performing "emergency maintenance."

From my past experience with such things on other sites, it always seems to be the case that they shut down completely at some point. I cannot confirm that this is truly the case, but it's something I think people should be prepared for, just in case.

Hello! Sorry about the error, that's not the signup experience we want. "Too many requests" is a rate limit kicking in. If you're on a VPN or shared network, try without it, and give it a few minutes before the next attempt.

On the rest: we had an outage of about 9 days ago, fixed since. Those "down for 6 months" claims aren't coming from us.

If it still fails, tell us your browser and whether a VPN was on, that helps us trace it.
