So to replace Google Workspace/Gmail, I'm looking at:

Fastmail (Australia)
Mailbox (Germany)
Proton Mail (Switzerland)

I hear Fastmail has to allow backdoors because of Australian law. I wonder if Mailbox or Proton are better?

#Email

Notice

Google mail client in Android refuses to login on other addresses than gmail.com!!!

I noticed a while back that the Google client fights back when I want to login on my email addresses which deviate from the Google domain. The client started with putting delays, before opening those accounts. It also randomly injected that those accounts were not safe while all standard Open Source safety measures are taken on both the servers and the clients.
When scaring you into using your {own hosted} email server fails, the gmail Android client degrades to the following behavior

The Google mail client in Android blatantly refuses to open the mails on those addresses.

##The Android client fakes, hallucinates, out of memory errors...

...even when all other programs on the phone have been taken out of memory. It's like someone put in LLM hallucinated slop code in that part of the gmail client

Very anti-consumer this Behavior

Of course I have an Open Source e-mail client running 🎽 on my Androids

I've seen this behavior coming years before. No I'm not going to recommend any open source email client to you, to use on your Android, to fetch and process your mail.
There are enough choices to make your own

Just remember that Google hates all of us

Google hates their clients

Google as a company hates their consumers never forget that

jump ship.

Google is now the Bell Phone Company of the 1960s

You have no idea what it's like to deal with people who refuse to delete 10+ years' worth of sent and received emails, while M365 is telling them their 50GB limit is nearly full, and their bosses won't pay for extra storage.

"But I need it all!" 🤦🏻‍♂️
