      @blinry while technically not an email provider, my experience with @ubernauten has been great for over 10 years now.

        @blinry @mailbox_org

        I have been using this for the better part of a decade now, and It is working very well. I brought my own domain, and it has been flawless.

          @blinry I am quite happy with mailbox.org. My only gripe is that to use your own domain you need to book a more expensive plan than the cheapest one.

            @blinry mailbox.
            Did choose mailbox over posteo couple years ago because own domain.
            Am pretty happy since then.
            Big plus for mailbox is that I can talk to bunch of mailbox team yearly in person at CLT.

                  @kura @blinry i can personally recommend tutanota, works well and has additional options for further securing email (though keep in mind those options are tuta-specific and may not always be supported on the other end)

                    @blinry Mailbox.org. Simple and does not require any weird app for access. Plain and stupid IMAP access is provided (and a web interface)

                    Also it's hosted in Europe, they have their own data centers and a long history of email hosting.

                              @blinry Happy with Tuta for my family's e-mail. Easy enough to use for non-techies.

                                @blinry
                                Ich bin jetzt seit einigen Jahren bei mailbox.org und rundum zufrieden.
                                Das ist so eine Einschalten-Geht Lösung.

                                Seinerzeit hatte ich auch noch parallel Posteo und Tutanota getestet, die sind aber damals mit eher schlechtem Support und Ahnungslosigkeit aufgefallen, insofern hatte ich die schnell wieder von der Liste gestrichen.

                                  I convinced two family members to switch to Posteo.

                                  Otherwise Tutamail.
