One more thing: don’t confuse email and web hosting. I highly recommend using a 3rd-party SMTP host for all outgoing email needs. You set them up with one account, and then you can add additional domains to it. You set up SPF, DKIM, and the other stuff for each domain separately. I just set

Proton is pretty cool. and honestly, Gmail is pretty solid on its own. The real trick is how you prefer to handle your email, if all you want is imap/smtp then you are good to go with just about anyone. You can look into providers such as Dreamhost, or even AWS free tier and see if you can get

I use to have fastmail and tired of how much of your info gets out. I ended up going to proton email service. Proton is the most secure email and located in Sweden where they have the most strict privacy laws in the world. They also have file storage also. Sent from [Proton

I've been using FastMail for several years with my own domain and they have been great. If you're good with having a @fastmail.com address then their pricing is as low as $3/month/user, otherwise if you want your own domain it's $5/month/user (+ the cost of your

I’d suggest getting a domain from somewhere and adding-on a cheap hosting plan like cPanel that includes email for as many mailboxes as you’ll need. Or if you have a spare domain you want to use that’s already hosted, that might do the trick. If you look around for just email hosting, you’re

You can always set one up for yourself! Can be pretty painful to set up, but there are wizards and tutorials. Just need a VPS server, I think $3-5 per month. I installed debian on mine with an encrypted drive, so not even the host of the physical server can get in there without first keylogging
