Known issues

Current unfinished and buggy product areas in the MailGate web app.

This page tracks known gaps in the current MailGate web app. It is intentionally narrower than the feature matrix: these are things you may see in the UI today that are unfinished, only partially wired, or likely to behave incorrectly.

Last reviewed from the frontend code on May 28, 2026. This list is not exhaustive yet.

UI present, logic not wired yet

  • Reply staking toggle. Settings -> Fees includes a "Require Stake for Reply" switch, but it only changes local UI state. It does not save a preference or enforce reply staking yet.

Settings -> Fees showing the Require Stake for Reply switch and the "Reply staking is coming soon" note.

  • Outbox fee confirmation modal. The outbox payment dialog can show a successful confirmation, but the confirm action only closes the local modal path and shows a success toast. It does not submit a real payment transaction from that dialog yet.

Buggy or partially wired

  • Group fees may fail to save or delete. Settings -> Fees can load existing sender fee overrides with an auth header, but the save and delete calls use raw /api/... requests without the same authorization plumbing. In authenticated sessions this can still fail with an API auth error.

  • Analytics failures can look like empty data. If the analytics requests fail, the page falls back to empty charts and tables instead of showing a clear error state.

Analytics packet log area, which can look like an empty state when requests fail.

  • Starred mail is assembled client-side. The Starred folder currently aggregates messages from other folders in the frontend because there is no dedicated backend endpoint yet. It can be slower and may not behave like a first-class mailbox view.

The Starred mail folder surface assembled by the frontend.

Still expected limitations

These are not bugs, but they are still unfinished product areas:

  • No native mobile app.
  • No IMAP or POP3 support.
  • No calendar product.
  • Contacts are a simple whitelist/blacklist-oriented list, not a full address book.
  • Custom domains and full DKIM/SPF/DMARC management are still incomplete.

How is this guide?
