Steve,
I am going to slot into your idea the situation Marc raised from the start. If you were using adaptive technology, either due to blindness, or paraplegia, or any comparative situation, how would you effortlessly and independently host your own email?
Will leave my question there.
After all, some on this list suddenly found themselves at risk of losing years worth of information when google took the basic html choice away. So, putting yourself in the place of Marc's friend here, how would you just move your stuff inclusively?
Just curious,
Karen

To the issue hand. Says that Gmail is notoriously difficult to set up
using Alpine.

Or Claws-Mail or pretty much any other email client.

I don’t doubt that, but just from my experience just
because you own your own domain for 15 or $30, that doesn’t
necessarily mean that it’s easier to set up. It would be for Gmail,
even though you’re right in that point.

What I mean by that I own five domains of my own. GODADDY recently
gave all of their email services management to Microsoft. At that
point you have to pay at least $38 every year to maintain your email
not only that, but I had to Ask Eduardo for assistance, because I had
a hell of a time trying to set up everything, and I must’ve
communicated with him at least 35 times during this entire situation,

Ugh! I guess Godaddy sucks too. I'm having great luck with
ionos as my domain registrar, as well as shockhosting.net as my web
host, which gives me a lot of email addresses. It would be pretty easy
to transfer your domains to ionos, or any other quality domain
registrar.
