No personal details at signup, strong account controls, IMAP support, and an optional zero-access mailbox mode if you enable it.

Great article!
One addition about the business-values from Posteo:
They just recently doubled the basic inbox-storage for everyone without incresing the fees. I can imagine other companies would just make more profit.

@dexternemrod Good addition — that’s actually a strong signal of how they operate. Most providers would have turned that into a paid tier bump. It fits their user-funded, independent structure.
