Recommended me a good private email provider
fedilink

Please suggest a good and relatively affordable private email provider. I am considering tuta, mailbox right now. I know proton has gone rogue.

I cannot self host one and the email provider must be somewhat reputable as I will be using this for my work portfolio. Anything with €1-€3 per month is encouraged.

First hint is already on the FrontPage:

We do expect you to understand how to use email and how to configure your DNS to use our service

Second hint, the very aggressive way their documentation is written with big font, repeating and slight threats. See https://mxroutedocs.com/dns/dnsrecords/

Third one, their refund policy in the FAQs:

We do not offer refunds. Please do not sign up unless you are comfortable with your choice.

And there are quite many people writing about their encounters online with them, like:

And so on. If you can handle working in open source you can handle them too. They are very direct which is off putting for some people, but they care deeply about their customers.

When you sent more spam on February 24 of 2024, we considered both interactions in our decision to terminate your account. […]
Don’t take my word for it, you already made the logs public so here’s the spam you sent from our service:

Unironically the best advertising possible for their service. If they’re being rude to those who deserve it, let it bang!
