Figure I’d ask here, but I’m looking to set something up for email in the future, I’m looking into custom domains so that if something happens with one email account, then I have more security in mind to pick up from there as opposed to being screwed.

I know that fully self hosting email full stop is usually not recommended, so I’m up for any advice anyone has on that end.

    @WandererLagomorph799 There are many providers who allow you to bring your own domain. The ones I know of are Disroot, mailbox.org and skiff.com. The main advantage of using your own domain is also that if you ever want to change your email provider, you can do so without changing your email address. So even if you choose the wrong provider at first, it’s not really a problem.

          Yeah. My first request was to add a couple GB to my nextcloud and get a couple aliases. Then I wanted to move my mail to them and nothing. I followed up a couple times.

          How is mailbox bothering you? I have the cheapest that allows a custom domain and I’ve never seen anything about moving to a different plan.

          Mailbox.org is great, I like that you get caldav and carddav as well. They’re very privacy conscious as well. It’s true the recent price increase doesn’t make me happy either. The service is great and I couldn’t find a better deal so I stick with them. Except for the price everything is perfect imho
