Hi all,
I have had several shots at self hosting email over the years and my last attempt failed due to my home IP being in a dynamic pool. I thought I might try again, this time with a basic web hosting provider that I could set up email on. Any suggestions for a free/cheap provider with decent uptime?
Thanks
I’ve bought mxroute lifetime a year ago, so far it been working really good. I use imap for my mail, my wife gets it forwarded to Gmail - both works fine.
Plus I can use mxroute smtp from my self host server to send mails from the services on it.
Could be worth to look into.
Can you provide a bit of info on this? I’m hesitating for a while on this plan, but I need at least 2 custom domains, and the possibility to have 2 users on this domains. Is this feasible with mxroute? Can’t figure this out from their faq 😅
It worked really well for me, used to have two domains on it, have one now - it made sense to move one of them to an old legacy gmail to have integrated calendar.
Anyway, been happy about mxroute, from what I read they are quite strict about not using it to bulk email, but I’m just using it for my personal mail, so that’s not an issue.
They also provide access to smtp logs in and out, makes it easy to see if an email was sent out received.
The downside is the 10gb space, but if you like me are only a few people then it’s most likely not an issue.
Thank you for this!
Two domains for personal use, no bulk sending.
That’s why I need two users actually 😅
I’ll try to reach out to them to know for sure if I can have this with only one payment!
Thanks again!
