Your newsletters and lists, hosted in France
A complete email platform powered by Mailtrain, installed and maintained by DINAO. Your subscribers and campaigns stay on our French servers — your contacts never go to Mailchimp.
What is Mailtrain?
Mailtrain is a self-hosted email and newsletter platform built on Node.js and MySQL/MariaDB. It gives you full control over your campaigns: list management, segmentation, custom fields, large CSV file imports, and a template editor, without entrusting your subscribers to a public service.
Mailtrain handles dynamic segmentation, automations (triggers, scenarios, follow-ups), RSS-to-email conversion, and detailed tracking of opens, clicks, and bounces. For sending, it relies on your own SMTP server or a third-party relay, giving you control over your sender reputation and deliverability.
Designed for secure multi-user usage, Mailtrain isolates its endpoints (trusted, sandbox, public) to prevent XSS attacks, and exposes a REST API as well as webhooks to integrate with your tools. Deployed in a Docker container on sovereign infrastructure, it keeps your entire subscriber base safely on your instance.

Technical details
You might be wondering…
Does Mailtrain replace Mailchimp?
Yes, essentially: lists, segmentation, templates, automations, and statistics. The difference: your subscribers stay with you, for a fixed price with no per-contact billing.
How does email sending work?
Mailtrain relies on your own SMTP server or a third-party sending relay. You maintain control over your sender reputation and deliverability.
Where are my subscriber lists stored?
On DINAO infrastructure in France, in one of the available data centers. Your contacts do not go to a third party.
Can I import my existing contact base?
Yes. Mailtrain imports your subscribers from large CSV files, with support for custom fields and consent status.
Can I change plans or export my data?
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time, and your lists and statistics remain exportable — no proprietary lock-in.
