Message
Ration Business Email
Mail on your own domain, speaking the standards your existing clients already use — and sitting in the same workspace as the chat, calendar and meetings it relates to.
Mail that behaves like the rest of your work
Business email is usually the last thing to be integrated and the first thing people complain about. Ration treats mail as a module of the workspace rather than a separate product: a thread can become a task, an attachment lands in shared storage, and an invitation resolves against the same directory that governs chat and meetings.
- Threaded mail with a conversation tree and thread map
- Rules, signatures and auto-reply
- Attachments handled through shared storage rather than mailbox bloat
- The organisational directory shared with Contact and Calendar
Outlook and phones connect unchanged
Moving mail providers usually means retraining everyone. It does not have to. Ration implements the same protocols your clients already speak, so desktop Outlook and native mobile mail apps connect as normal.
- SMTP, IMAP and POP3
- ActiveSync for mail, contacts, calendar, tasks and notes on mobile
- CalDAV and CardDAV for calendar and contact sync
- Two-factor authentication and per-device app passwords as standard
Migration, including large estates
We migrate mail, contacts and calendars, and we have done it for large mailbox estates rather than a handful of test accounts. The scope is agreed with you before you commit to anything — mailbox count, data volume, cutover window and what happens to mail in flight.
Because Ration speaks open standards in both directions, the same portability that gets you in is what would let you leave. Your data exports whenever you ask for it.
Where the mailboxes actually live
For a lot of organisations the deciding question about business email is not the feature list — it is jurisdiction. Ration Cloud runs from regional data centres, and the platform can equally be deployed inside your own estate or hosted for you by a managed service provider.
Same mail platform, same protocols, sited wherever your policy requires.
Questions we get asked
Can staff keep using Outlook and their phones?
Yes. Ration speaks ActiveSync, IMAP, POP3, SMTP, CalDAV and CardDAV, so existing clients connect as normal.
Can we migrate our existing mailboxes?
Yes — mail, contacts and calendars, including large mailbox estates. We scope the migration with you before you commit to anything.
Can we use our own domain?
Yes. Ration Business Email is built around mail on your own domain, with the organisational directory shared across the other modules.
Are there mobile apps?
An app for each module is built and awaiting release on the app stores. Until they land, phones connect over ActiveSync for mail, contacts, calendar, tasks and notes.

Platform
Collaboration platform
Mail, chat, meetings, calendar, contacts, tasks, notes and forms in a single workspace — with one policy engine deciding access across all of them, and a choice of where the whole thing runs.
Assurance
Secure messaging
Security that comes from how the platform is built and where it runs, rather than from a certificate on a marketing page.
Platform
Corporate messaging
Internal communication that stays in one place, under one directory and one set of rules — instead of scattering across a chat tool, a mail provider and whichever consumer app filled the gaps.
Sectors
Sovereign collaboration
Your data stays on the continent that governs it — or inside your own building, if that is what the policy says.
