What is MailBarrier?
MailBarrier is JetEmail’s whitelabel inbound portal, hosted at mailbarrier.net. It gives end-users of a filtered domain (the people whose mailboxes are protected, not the JetEmail account holder) a dedicated place to manage their own inbound mail: review logs, release quarantined messages, train spam, configure allow and block rules, and opt into daily digests. The JetEmail dashboard is where you, the customer, set up and configure a domain for inbound filtering. MailBarrier is where the people inside that domain interact with their own filtered mail without ever seeing the JetEmail brand.Anything a user changes in MailBarrier (rules, digests, releases) applies to their own mailbox or to the domain they administer, scoped by their MailBarrier account role.
Signing in
Users can reach MailBarrier two ways: Magic link or password. Visit mailbarrier.net and enter your email address. A one-time sign-in link is sent through AWS SES, protected by Cloudflare Turnstile to block automated abuse. Users who prefer credentials can also set a password in Settings and sign in directly afterwards. SSO from the JetEmail dashboard. When a domain admin is logged in to dash.jetemail.com, they can jump straight into MailBarrier as their own user. The dashboard mints a short-lived session and hands the user off to MailBarrier without a second login, then drops them on the management interface.Email logs
The default view in MailBarrier is Email Logs, a searchable record of every message that has hit the domain. Search and filter. Search by subject, from address, to address, message UID, domain, status, or the raw inbound, outbound, or delivery response. Narrow further by a date range. Status at a glance. Each row is color-coded by what happened to the message:| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Delivered | Accepted by your destination server. |
| Queued | Held in JetEmail’s queue, retrying delivery. See Mail Queue. |
| Received | Accepted by JetEmail and being processed. |
| Rejected | Refused by JetEmail or the destination (permanent failure). |
| Quarantined | Held back because of spam scoring. |
| Blocked | Stopped by a custom block rule. |
| Spam | Classified as spam by filtering. |
Rules
The Rules tab is where users build their own allow and block rules for the domain. Two actions:- Allow rules bypass spam filtering for matching mail. Use these when a legitimate sender keeps getting flagged.
- Block rules reject matching mail outright before it reaches the inbox.
| Condition | What it matches |
|---|---|
| Senders | Specific email addresses, full domains, or regex patterns. |
| Recipients | Inboxes, domains, or patterns on your side. |
| Subjects | Exact, contains, starts with, ends with, or regex matches on the subject line. |
| Body | Same match types as subjects, applied to the message body. |
| Headers | Match on any header name and value. |
| IPs | A single IP, CIDR block, or IP range. |
| Size | Minimum and maximum message size. |
| Attachments | By filename, extension, MIME type, or whether attachments are present at all. |
Settings
The Settings tab covers two things end users typically want to control themselves.Daily email digest
Users can opt in to a once-a-day digest summarizing quarantined and blocked mail for the previous 24 hours. The digest is delivered at a time the user picks, in their browser’s local timezone. Two scopes are available depending on role:- User digest. Sent to a specific mailbox, covering only mail to that address. Any user can configure this for their own mailbox.
- Domain digest. Sent to a domain admin, covering the entire domain. Only available to users marked as the domain owner.
Password
Magic-link sign-in is the default, but users who want to log in faster can set a password under Settings. Once a password is set, switching the sign-in form to “Sign in with email and password” lets them skip the magic link entirely. Passwords must be at least 10 characters and can be changed from the same screen.Roles
MailBarrier distinguishes three rough roles, all derived from how the JetEmail account is set up:- User. Can manage rules, releases, reports, and digests for their own mailbox.
- Domain owner. Everything a user can do, plus domain-wide rules and the domain digest. This is the address you set as the domain admin in the JetEmail dashboard.
- Impersonated session. Created by the dashboard for SSO. Behaves as the underlying user; the impersonation session is single-use and is invalidated after handoff.
