Hi everybody,

I’ve had a domain name at Gandi.net for quite a while, which included 5 email addresses as well, hosted on my domain. Now they’re however discontinuing this offer, it will now be €3,99 per month per mailbox.

So, I’ve been looking around a bit. I need a service that allows me to connect it to my own domain name, that actually allows IMAP instead of requiring a special client, and preferably should allow me to put up several mailboxes under the same account since I currently have mailboxes for some of my family members.

Security is not a concern since this is only intended to be used for the email I send and receive under my actual legal name, and I know better than to use email for confidential material.

Zoho Mail seems like a good deal, since they have 10GB per user for only €1,13 a month. I’m just afraid that my emails might end up in spam filters since they’re based in India.

    because iOS checks for new mail frequently

    Client behavior has nothing to do with email delivery though. That being said, I run my own mailserver and have MacOS/iOS clients and have never seen a connection error.

    I’m not convinced that all email servers obey the SMTP standard.

    Of course, any idiot can write a broken smtp server that nobody uses.
