Congratulations on purchasing your new MailBug!

This User Manual contains many useful tips on how to use your MailBug. So you

may want to keep this manual handy as it contains a wealth of information on how

to use the many features of your MailBug.

Your MailBug must be configured before using it. If you purchased your MailBug

directly from Landel, then it may already be setup and configured for use prior to

being shipped to you. If you purchased it elsewhere, such as online, then it likely

needs to be setup before you can use it. If this is the case, please contact the

MailBug Support Team at the phone number below and an agent will help you to

set it up and select your email address.

Customer Support: 1-855-MAILBUG or

1-855-624-5284 or

1-408-360-0490

If you have questions, comments, or just need help with your MailBug, you can

get answers quickly and conveniently by contacting Customer Support either by

calling the above number, or sending an email to:
