Comment on Alternative to Gmail? I currently use my own domain for email, but i miss the priority inbox
DumbRedNeck1@reddthat.com 1 day ago
I’m doing trial periods at fastmail, zoho and namecheap (fronting for titan ).
Zoho will fail back to a low volume, web only version if the bill doesn’t get paid while the others just stop working.
Those were pretty much the top three I found across all the “top 10” reviews I could find – aside from the ones that obviously cater to spamming (marketing) customers.
Would love to see reasons for/against them.

I’ve been using Zoho for about 6 months and have no complaints. I pay about $12 a year for a couple of gigs of storage - not a huge amount, but enough for personal email as long as you delete stuff fairly regularly.
You can create up to 30 email aliases, which I use a lot. For instance, I have an email address for newsletters, a couple for generic web logins, and then some specific ones for important accounts such as banking.
It’s easy to make filters to sort email as it arrives. This is how I handle the “priority inbox” situation. Any email from my family or other important senders is all put into a single folder, and I have an email app on my phone which checks this folder and notifies me of new mail. All other mail is either moved by other filters e.g. newsletters or just left in the inbox.
