More and more I consider just self hosting. Does have obvious drawbacks though 😅

Even some commercial less well known mail providers are sometimes blocked by big players like gmail and outlook for anti-spam reasons.

Self hosted my mail for decades, the only issue i’ve had is Hotmail/outlook, who have blacklisted my IP with no way to unblock it.

Gmail is pretty good

My mail provider isn’t that big. We got blocked by both outlook and gmail, but I duckduckwent a workaround which worked. Something about editing some mail record somewhere. Can’t remember what, I’m afraid.
