I’ve recently been trying to degoogle myself, and in doing so I’m going to need another email. I tried ProtonMail, but apparently only business accounts can use SMTP, even though their features claim SMTP access. I’m plenty fine paying for the service, but going from the $6/month to $12/month just to get notification emails from my server doesn’t seem worth it to me. I’ve not looked into what all else comes with Proton’s Business features, but i’m not really running a business or trying to start one up.
What do you use? do you like it? How’s the cost/features?
I have mine running through Polaris Mail. The domain cost me around $5 for the year (renewal is $10 IIRC), and I’m running the Y25 plan for $25/yr which has been big enough for me. SMTP is included, and there is a web interface, but I haven’t really used that, T-bird and K9 take care of my needs.
