Key facts

Hostpoint is a Swiss web hosting and email service provider that operates mailbox infrastructure for smaller and mid-market organisations across Europe and beyond. The company does not occupy a top-tier position amongst global email platforms; instead, it serves a distributed clientele spanning many different sectors and geographies.

From a deliverability perspective, Hostpoint's presence matters most for senders targeting German-speaking regions and .de-registered domains, where it commands a visible share of the market. Mailboxes on Hostpoint commonly run behind SecureMailGate, a third-party gateway filter, which means inbound mail policy enforcement occurs at two distinct layers rather than one—a configuration pattern that can affect routing, filtering, and troubleshooting workflows.

SecureMailGate gateway architecture and policy stacking

Hostpoint's frequent pairing with SecureMailGate creates a multi-layer mail-handling environment: the gateway appliance acts as the first filtering and routing stage, and the Hostpoint mailbox platform acts as the second. Each layer maintains separate policy databases for reputation, authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), content filtering, and spam detection. A sender may satisfy authentication requirements at the mailbox layer but still be rejected or deferred at the gateway, or vice versa. Administrators and deliverability teams working with Hostpoint recipients should account for this dual-layer enforcement and test compliance at both stages to diagnose and resolve delivery blocks.
