MailProof compared with Recorded and Special Delivery post

MailProof does for email what recorded post tries to do for letters — give you proof that something important was delivered — but it does it faster, cheaper and with a richer record.

How it compares:

• Speed — a certified email is delivered in the moment, and you get the proof as it happens. No trip to a post office, no waiting a day for delivery, no chasing a signature scan.
• The evidence — instead of a scrawled signature, you get a timestamped record of the recipient's own mail server accepting the message, packaged as a formal PDF certificate with a unique ID.
• Independent verification — anyone can confirm a MailProof certificate through the public verification page. A postal receipt has to be produced and trusted; a MailProof certificate can be checked online by the other side.
• What is captured — the certificate records the sender, recipient, subject line, attachment filenames and the full delivery timeline, so it also evidences what was sent, not just that something was.
• Cost — with a free monthly allowance and per-email pricing well below a recorded-delivery stamp, it suits both the occasional notice and high-volume sending.

Where post still matters is when a recipient has no email or a document must physically arrive. For everything that can travel by email, MailProof gives you comparable proof without the friction.
