DH accounts support inbound plus addressing - just tested sending from gmail to one of my accounts. Dreamhost now do ingress and egress mail filtering via Mailchannels MXes (in my experience it occasionally catches a handful of false positives, worth checking the spam folder periodically but it's made a decent positive improvement to spam reaching inboxes. They also proactively monitor for any mailbox compromise or outbound spam through accounts. I recently recommitted on a three year plan as I blagged a decent price. Current introductory pricing for new customers is pretty good. I've hosted with them since 2007 and their service has been pretty solid throughout without price hikes. Their tech support is much better than it used to be - they started to scale up around 2009/2010 and struggled with some growing pains, but they dealt with it and shared hosting service has been good for years. (see dreamhoststatus.com) They've implemented some nice security improvements behind the scenes and still offer things like SSH which can be useful. Their mail hosting was also migrated to bigger, newer infrastructure a while back which improved performance. Support is ticket-based unless you pay for premium support, but they're actually helpful and responsive after a ticket is assigned to someone. I've very rarely needed to contact support over the last 15 odd years. Obviously all their hosting is in the US which may have GDPR/data export implications for commercial use. Shameless referral link: https://www.dreamhost.com/r.cgi?264181 though feel free to go direct. I host other personal and business services with various providers, including Mythic Beasts who have always provided gold standard service. But that's for VPSes I still have to manage and maintain. Compared to a specialist dedi/VPS provider, Dreamhost shared won't win site speed awards, but it's perfectly fine and they do offer optimisations and one-click installers for popular stuff. Certainly for my email needs, DH has always provided what I wanted. I generally use afraid.org premium account for external DNS, keeping an eye on any occasional changes they might make to hosting or mail infrastructure (as they will sometimes update default records automatically on the assumption you are hosting DNS for your domains on their NS). DH will still notify in advance if critical things like MX or IMAP access is changing, which itself is a rare occurrence. For most people Dreamhost's DNS management panel will be more than adequate. Protonmail also support inbound plus/sub-addressing as I believe does Outlook/Hotmail. Cheers Chris >
