I’ve recently been trying to degoogle myself, and in doing so I’m going to need another email. I tried ProtonMail, but apparently only business accounts can use SMTP, even though their features claim SMTP access. I’m plenty fine paying for the service, but going from the $6/month to $12/month just to get notification emails from my server doesn’t seem worth it to me. I’ve not looked into what all else comes with Proton’s Business features, but i’m not really running a business or trying to start one up.
What do you use? do you like it? How’s the cost/features?
I self host through my ISP connection.
- sendmail
- bogofilter
- bogofilter-milter
- opendkim
- Cyrus for POP3/IMAP
- roundcube
I have static IP and needed to get a business plan to obtain it. I am actually wondering if there’s place where I can set up a tunnel (that would work with freebsd) and then I could use cheaper, customer based plan.
My problem is to get something that wasn’t abused by spammers. I don’t plan to send any advertising, it would be low volume, since it is just for my and my family.
Is a Dynamic DNS not an option for you? Most residential plans keep their IP for months if not years, only really changing if the model drops for long periods of time.
