How to send feedback
When using Fastmail beta, you can send feedback anytime by clicking the Send beta feedback button, located at the end of your folder list.
If we are testing a new feature on beta, please click Send beta feedback, then select the feature. This will open a survey where you can provide feedback that goes directly to our product team.
If you encounter bugs or strange behaviors while using beta, please click Send beta feedback. (If we are testing a feature, you will also need to select Something else.) This will open a template for you to fill out, which is then filed as a ticket with our support team.
