[Email Hosting] Email hosting for 1 or 2 addresses

Im looking for email hosting, (Not cPanel) Needs a good spam filter on the web side.

I really would love to use Outlook but I can no longer add a domain to domains.live.com

And I wouldnt mind paying office 365 $4 a month? But I would have to keep switching between my main windows outlook account and my 365 account. Unless they can be merged?

Any suggestions? Not looking for more than $4 must have a nice webmail client, pop3, etc.

    Setup Gmail account.

    Setup MailGun to forward to gmail using a route.

    Setup Gmail to send using Mailgun

    Profit?

    Hm, you sure? Either way can't you use gmail's "Check mail from other accounts (using POP3)" to do that?

    This option works better. Forwarding to gmail means sending spam to gmail, because no filter is perfect, and that means excessive delays or failures in your forwarder any time you get too much spam in an hour.

    Bottom line, you use forwarders to gmail if you don't actually care about consistently receiving your email. Depending on your settings on the forwarder, you may not even be aware of what you don't receive as a result. Many people really don't care about what they don't know they aren't receiving, so this is acceptable to them, but not to me :)

    Short version: Gmail blocks IPs for periods of time based on their content filter, so you have to expect your spam filters to be perfect today and tomorrow to guarantee that a gmail forwarder doesn't drop important emails later. Anyone who lets you do this doesn't care about your email (unmanaged services probably). I do. I take responsibility for mail delivery quality and make the tough decisions to prevent others from negatively impacting your mail.

    Looks interesting, Create aliases through a simple YAML file and a git push.
    $5/m though and not sure if there is an annual discount.

    Essentially I agree with you. And it applies to any third-party recipient service, not just Gmail but also Hotmail, Yahoo, Outlook, Apple mail, anyone.

    Which means to be safe we (mail server admins) have to disallow all off-server forwarding, because we don't know what action the remote server will take (like, add to blacklist).

    It's a dilemma. Piss off the users or risk getting blacklisted by remote SMTP servers. But we (mail providers) depend on both.

    I allow forwarding to remote servers, but only after the message passes (a) acceptance rules and (b) spam content filtering. Too many mail setups just blindly forward without any examination at all. I haven't been blacklisted anywhere in nearly 10 years of operation.

  • Why not use yandex? We use it for business things. And no problem.

    "Found" as in "founded" I assume since your first three posts were bumping threads to claim you "found" this service ;)

    Nothing wrong with advertising your service, just be honest.
