Bonus question: what email inbox client do you use?

Fastmail, 100%. Reasons:
- “Encrypted email” only works between encrypted providers. ProtonMail and Tutanota are both very inconvenient, and all I want is an email that’s not scanned for marketing.
- Since 2018, ProtonMail kept getting worse, especially with the recent AI stuff. Dodged bullet, IMO.
- $6/month = Custom domains, and any amount of emails under those domains. I can send and receive from any domain
xxx@yyy [dot] lynndotpy [dot] dev, for example. - CalDav and CardDav provider = Contacts, calendar, and reminders sync. Works perfectly on iOS too, if you like that.
It replaced my finnicky NextCloud for half the cost.
Protonmail, it’s fantastic. Sleek design, solid feature set, integrates with Thunderbird if you want to use that.
I used to pay for Gmail, then I used Proton Mail about a year, and I’ve been using Fastmail for the last couple of years, which I recommend. I don’t know of anything that’s as feature-rich and easy to use as Fastmail. You may not be interested in all those fancy features, though.
I use MacOS/iOS Mail clients, but also Thunderbird as I’m trying to wean myself off of Apple’s ecosystem and onto Linux/FOSS.
Posteo. Happy with them. For client, gnus in Emacs. Have it configured to do Autocrypt too, but almost nobody else on the planet does 🙁
Can vouch for Posteo. I’ve been using them for years and I have no reason to switch anytime soon. They’re privacy focused, the price is great, there’s IMAP support and CalDAV too and a bunch of other things.
Proton for personal email. Not immediately needing to escape but once my free email runs out of storage I plan to switch to something else because of the concerns raised by the incident with the French climate activist.
Mxroute with thunderbird as a client and mail on iOS for mobile.
Unlimited domains and rock solid. Just don’t expect lots of hand holding the company focuses on making email work you have to sort out your own details. That being said they have good documentation.
2nd Mxroute. I got the black Friday deal a few years ago. I love using the catchall to make emails on the fly for when I sign up for different services.
I do exactly the same thing. Some more spam from time to time but usually thunderbird catches that for me.

Gmail.
No.
Zoho, because it’s email server is free to use for custom domain adresses
I use gmail and my own domain with uninbox. The latter is a quite new FOSS email front/backend, but its still very new and lacks essential features.
If I’d make the switch, it would probably be to tutanota.
Purely Mail, yes; so long as you’re comfortable with one guy running the service.
Thunderbird for desktop and K-9 for Andriod. Only because they were the most recommended and completely fit my needs.
Purely Mail has been a good experience for me so far.
I self host, on a personal domain I registered in June 2000. Mostly followed a 13?-part tutorial at I think linuxbabe dot com, was the first one that seemed to genuinely be trying to help you set up a good environment, not just as a way to say “doesn’t this sound difficult? Impossible even? Coincidentally you can pay us to do this instead.” Except I put everything on its own VM instead of all on one. (Even a VM for just opendkim, which was maybe not necessary.)
Mostly iPhone mail app and/or Roundcube webmail.
Yes highly recommend it, for receiving email. Greylist blocks like 99.8% of spam. Sending works fine for me, because it’s an old domain with history. I don’t think brand new domains have the same experience.
I use Gmail and the client I use is the browser along with the Gmail app on Android. … Yeah, I know, not a very interesting or fun answer lol.
Gmail, wouldn’t recommend. Use it out of necessity.
I use k9 mail for checking on mobile and it is solid most of the time
I like port87, but it doesnt have a mobile app yet
I use firefox to add the website as an app(does anyone know if there is a better way?)
