Operations
Who runs the parts of the service we could observe from outside, checked 4 September 2026. A provider's control can differ from where its servers stand.
| Part | Provider | Provider control | What we saw |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core hosting | BIT · Ede, NL | European | BIT, Ede, NL [1] |
| Public website | BIT (AS12859) · NL | European | A 87.251.43.24, 87.251.43.25, 87.251.43.26 · AS12859 [1] [2] |
| Incoming email | mssgs mail | European | MX 10 mx1.mssgsmail.com · 20 mx2.mssgsmail.com [1] [2] [3] |
| Outgoing email | Postmark / ActiveCampaign · US | Not European | SPF include:spf.mtasv.net [1] [2] |
Core chat data remains on BIT infrastructure in Ede according to mssgs, and the public website resolves to the same Dutch network. Business email received at mss.gs now uses mssgs mail, a Dutch-operated service that documents its own mail hardware in the Netherlands (MX checked 12 September 2026). Transactional email is authorised through Postmark, a US-controlled service whose primary data and servers are in the United States. These mail paths are separate from chat storage.
