↓ The reality

Your inbox is fine.
The address on it is the problem.

Most trade businesses get enquiries by phone, referral, cards, quotes, invoices and signage. That is where long email addresses create avoidable friction.

📞

Hard to say on the phone.

Long domains are awkward to spell out when a customer is already in a hurry.

✏️

Easy to mistype.

A longer address gives customers more characters to hear, remember and enter correctly.

🚐

Cramped on the van.

Cards, vans, invoices and signage work better when the email fits cleanly.

🧠

Forgotten after a referral.

If they have to ask for the email again, the enquiry has more friction than it needs.

↓ The fix

Same inbox.
Half the typing.

Customers email the short address. Short Mail forwards it to the inbox you already use. No website change. No mailbox migration.

1

Check your match.

Tell us your business name, current email and the short .au address you want.

2

Account manager calls.

A human checks fit, availability, eligibility and the aliases you would want.

3

Start after approval.

Once approved, the short address forwards to your existing inbox. Setup can usually be arranged within 24 hours.

↓ Where it shines

Built for the places
email actually lives.

On the van.

Big enough to read at the lights. Short enough to remember.

sales@abc.au

On a business card.

No wrap. No tiny type. No spelling lecture.

jonathan@abc.au

On the phone.

"abc dot a-u" is the whole sentence.

abc.au

On quotes and invoices.

A cleaner header where customers already look.

accounts@abc.au

On flyers, radio, signage.

When customers only hear or glance, shorter helps.

hello@abc.au
↓ Whole team, one domain

One short
domain.
Everyone routed.

Map common team aliases — quotes, sales, accounts, admin and staff names — to the inboxes you already have. Subject to fair-use limits.

quotes@abc.ausales@abc.auaccounts@abc.auadmin@abc.aujonathan@abc.ausarah@abc.auhello@abc.aujobs@abc.au
→ all forward into inboxes you already use.
↓ The test offer

One price.
One short address.

If we can match you with a clean short .au, this is the demand-test price. Final setup depends on domain fit, eligibility, terms and approval checks.

No payment is collected on this page. Ownership, transfer and send/reply-from needs can be discussed on the call.

↓ Real questions

Stuff you will
probably wonder.

Do I need to change my website?

No. The initial concept is designed to forward email to the inbox you already use, without changing your website or current domain.

Can I keep my current email address?

Yes. The short address can sit alongside your current address while you test whether customers find it easier.

Can I send from the short address?

This first setup is focused on inbound forwarding. Send/reply-from support can be discussed on the setup call if it matters.

Who owns the short domain?

Short Mail manages a portfolio of short .au domains for this demand test. Setup, terms, and any ownership or transfer options are explained before activation.

Can Short Mail read my email?

The concept routes mail to your existing inbox. Live privacy/provider logging terms still need approval before customer activation.

How fast can it be set up?

Usually within 24 hours after match, eligibility, destination inbox and approval checks. It is not instant self-serve.

Is it really unlimited aliases?

Reasonable team aliases are the intent. Fair-use, spam and abuse limits apply before live launch.
