Topic: Spider Email Archiver free license

Hello,

After the 2.4.0 update it is no longer possible to use a free license.
I know a lot of homelab users use this product to archive their e-mail server.

Is it possible for a free license to remain that you can only use for home/testing purposes?
Maybe even with limited functionality.

- Yes, we decided to stop the free tier.
- No, there's no "a lot" today. smile sad

We're more than happy to give you a license for testing for certain period. Please sign up to the store on website https://spiderd.io/, then request a free trial license, drop us an email (support _at_ iredmail.org) and tell us how long you want to test, we will update the license expiration date per request.

I'm confused. Your current License Key documentation states:

Spider is free for up to 10 mailboxes. To archive for more than 10 mailboxes, you need to sign up and purchase a license key...

I'd like to use Spider Email Archiver to archive 2 mailboxes. Do I need to purchase a license key or not?

Regard, Steve.

Doc has been updated now.
I'm sorry that we don't offer free license keys now. sad
