Ask Secure Message a question. Answers come from this site's docs only. I will cite a page. I will not invent a product claim.
Request a Community activation code for a single domain and one administrator. The license is node-locked to the appliance you install — you receive the code; you apply the key after the gateway shows its node ID.
Your license key is tied to the appliance it runs on, so it can only be generated after you install — that's why step 1 sends a code rather than the key itself.
Community covers a single domain. Compare paid plans — Professional adds the portal, ClamAV, and recipient verification. Enterprise adds Autopilot, eDiscovery, and DLP.
Community is the self-hosted gateway. For a scoped trial or MSP terms, talk to engineering.
Read the install guide or write support@secure-message.io.
Self-hosted is what we ship. Hosted or managed Secure Message is available by request only — not a general SaaS offering and not a catalog plan.
