  Lots of people here say Proton, but I’d also consider selfhosting my email on either a home server or the cloud, whichever meets my criteria for redundancy to stay online

    I hear self-hosting email is a really complicated thing if you want it secure and all that. I never tried, just hearsay.

      The only problem with self-hosting is that big coorps like google or microsoft will put you on their spam list, so your e-mails will land in the spam folder when you send emails to gmail or outlook addresses. Other than that it’s not a huge hassle as stuff like mailcow.email or mailu or mail-in-a-box exist.

        Ah, wow. Yeah. That’s a big problem, or would be for me anyway. No time or energy to deal with that issue.

        Just make sure you add DKIM and all that. Mail in a box will do it mostly for you but it should take care of the spam issues at least until someone reports your emails as spam. For a personal email that shouldn’t happen.

    Safe yourself some time and use virtualmin if you want to host mail yourself.
