What's a /g/ approved Email service? Sick of using Gmail and Outlook for everything.

gmail for personal email and general outbound communication, custom domain with forwarding for account signups, newsletters, and all assorted inbound-only usage

>>106588970 (OP)
No reasonable solution. Best you can hope for is a somewhat less cumbersome registration process, but it's all pozzed garbage spyslop (on the clearweb at least). Anything outside the control of big brother corporations is blacklisted, so even if you manage to get an account, you won't be able to do shit with it other than mail yourself.

>>106588985
...Such as?

>>106589110
search for registrars that offer email forwarding, I'm using a niche solution I cannot recommend others

Docker email.

Surprisingly the $0.99/mo iCloud tier is great for this. You can use a custom email domain and also use their “hide my email” service where it automatically generates one-time email addresses that forward to that email. Plus it includes the cloud storage increase and whatever else

I use Proton personally
>inb4 b-b-b-but they ratted out those eco terrorists in France that one time after they received a court warrant
Well good thing don't plan on doing annoying shit in France like form a human chain to block major roads off dump red paint (often made with some patrolled byproduct on peoples cares) and or whatever other retarded shit they do.
Still better than using Glowoogle, I also have a Yahoo client but I know Yahoo's ''security'' is a fucking joke and it's just a throwaway so whatever.

I'm sure Tutanota is cool too.

>Open source

Yet another company lying about being "open source" when only its client is open source

I stopped using Tutanota about a year ago after using it as a loyal customer for 5 years because I was sick of them promising features 4 years ago and still not following through and then doing annoying stuff like rebranding the whole UI and app.

Started using Mailbox.org which is a lot better, it has every feature of a normal email client plus its hosted in Germany.

>>106589465
seconded proton. I don't do terrorism or cheese pizza so I don't give a fuck. they don't make you give a phone number and they don't go down.

>>106589833
Gotta pay subscription for IMAP though

docker mailserver + roundcube + a cheap vps provider and you're all set

>>106588970 (OP)
Buy a domain and hook it up with Fastmail. Worth every penny.

tutanota is from germany too
and nobody cares abour your autistic screetching
>REEEEEEE CHANGE BAD
kys retard
tutanota ftw

Why don't we use something better than emails?

>>106592738
There's nothing wrong with emails, autist.

>>106588970 (OP)
I pay one € per month for posteo.
And i do this for over ten years now.
The only downside is that it's from Germany, which means that they are under total surveillance. So i obviously do not use it for accounts on platforms where i say based things.
>>106589819
They are postfix servers with dovecot and the web interface is roundcube. You can run all of this yourself. They are indeed OpenSource. Probably one of the only software-as-a-service providers that you can actually for real run yourself. It's just hard to do it, but possible.

In any way, just use any random email provider that is paid, exists for years already, and uses roundcube.
Without paying, it will be shit.

>>106588970 (OP)
Postfix dovecot roundcube

>>106592738
Email is decentralized and federated.
The only alternatives are centralized.

>>106588970 (OP)
tuta pwns your account if they find out you have more than one
proton is a constant spam of their other services

the thing about alternative email providers is that some services just ban anything that isn't gmail, icloud or outlook

Email choices in 2025:
>shit
>phone number
>paid

>>106588970 (OP)
The one you host yourself.

>>106592961
in theory
I have like 20 accounts for years, all free tier
>>106594504
tutanota doesent require any of it and isnt shit

>>106594537
>tutanota doesent require any of it and isnt shit
Sir? Sir? Are you using our email address to sign up for an account? I need you to stop that. Sir? Have you logged in within the past minute? OK I'm gonna need to take that account from you.

>>106589893
this is the dumbest shit ever, I have a proton account too and this makes me seethe.
pay money for basic fucking services, goy.

>>106589819
Their website says that the clients are open source.
They're still better the protonmail desu.

>>106594722

>>106595165
>protonmail
Sir? You're only allowed the maximum of one account, I need to take the rest, sir.

>>106594722
what are you talkin about?
lol blatant glownigger

>>106595192
that's fine with me since I'm not a sperg that needs multiple accounts.

>>106595196
Maybe the rules are different for employee accounts such as yours.

>>106595210
Hey if you want to put all your eggs in one basket that's fine with me.

>>106595192
I have two accounts with them, signed in at the same time. No issues.

>>106592781
Right after you said that, people talking abou their problems with email.

I bought a runbox account with practically unlimited aliases for $20/yr. Proton and Tuta cap your aliases at like 20 and you have to live in their proprietary apps instead of being permitted to use your preferred client. EoE is not a feature I care about here (use GPG) and unnecessary if you're read-only.

>>106596006
For $20/yr you get 100 aliases each of which work with 37 domains for 3,700 unique addresses.
