Anybody have recommendations for #email providers? I've been using @mailbox_org since 2019 but the service is going downhill. They are outright blocking mail from a number of legit senders, support now takes days to respond and when it does it's not particularly helpful).
I last reviewed mail providers in 2019 here https://changelog.complete.org/archives/9952-review-of-secure-privacy-respecting-email-services .
My criteria -- it must: let me bring my own domain, by privacy-respecting, have reasonable support, not require clients other than IMAP/SMTP. #askfedi
@jgoerzen @mailbox_org Fastmail. I've been very happier with them for two years. I know the CTO, my wife bought him beer at perlconf, and has been to perl meetings with him. (he's in Philly) I've got an in if support ever does you wrong.
@raven @mailbox_org Thanks for the recommendation! I had initially avoided them due to some nebulous negative impressions. On your suggestion, I looked into it more deeply and this was all from a time when they were a free webmail provider. They've probably cleaned up a lot since.
I'm a little unsure about their data location; Australia has some draconian spying laws, and they also store some data in India. OTOH, their transparency report shows very few requests.
I'll dig more. Thanks!
