Shared team inbox vs personal inbox for vendor accounts
A personal inbox is convenient at signup time. A workspace-owned inbox is convenient every time after that: for the login code, the notice, and the day the person who signed up is gone.

In short
Register vendor and tool accounts to an Inflovy workspace inbox rather than a personal one: the OTP reaches the whole team, the history stays with the project, and offboarding is removing a member instead of changing the email on every account.
The common problem
Codes and notices reach one person.
Offboarding means changing the email on each account.
Nobody knows which accounts exist.
How Inflovy helps
A Vendors project with one inbox per tool is also an inventory.
Codes are visible to the team; the address never sends.
Retention is by plan, with expiry shown.
Personal versus workspace inbox for vendor accounts.
| Need | Personal inbox | Inflovy |
|---|---|---|
| Inventory | A spreadsheet, if any. | The project’s inbox list. |
| Codes | One person. | Team. |
| Leaving | Re-register everything. | Remove the member. |
Questions people ask before switching.
Short answers. Inflovy is a receive-only test inbox for developers and QA teams; it does not replace your mailbox or send anything.
Does Inflovy store invoices long-term?
No. Messages expire by plan (7–90 days). Forward invoices to your records system.
