How we select forms and email addresses

This directory contains 28 contact routes. It is not a complete list of every Meta form: some only appear inside specific accounts. We check purpose against official pages and show review limits on each card. A published Meta email address does not handle every type of issue.

Messages from security@mail.instagram.com may be security notifications. That does not make the address a general support inbox. We do not add addresses from unofficial lists without a confirmed purpose.
