Dealing with support who's obviously not technical by any means of the imagination. It's like they hired people who happened to be walking in front of their offices when their skilled workers ran for the exits.
I spent 2 months with Zoho and I'd go without email before I used Zoho ever again.
I meant, to call support, one needs to have issues in the mail receiving or sending. So what type of issues you faced due to which you had to call support?
mailcow with mxroute smtp relay
I don't fully agree with you here. For Google I think it's actually mostly really following best practices like SPF/DKIM/... Microsoft might block you, but they have a well-known process to get yourself unblocked (usually within a day).
What's more problematic is when someone blocks you with an unhelpful message and there is no obvious process on how to get unblocked.
But the risk of using a third-party email provider is that they might block legitimate emails (in a way they don't end up in "Spam" and don't show up anywhere for you) - and when you don't expect those emails you will probably never find out (or find out when it's too late). And the sender might not bother trying to figure out how to get unblocked when all they get is some cryptic error message. In that case it goes completely unnoticed and the email provider will not even count it as a false positive in their spam filtering (and thus will not see a need for improvement).
Not worth the risk either.
These days i use smtp through directadmin from a shared hosting reseller acct.
I've used mailinabox in the past which worked well.
Keyhelp has also worked for me in the past to get mails to the inbox.
Both solutions use dovecot and postfix as mentioned before.
Another necessity is to be sure you can edit rdns records at your host. Some will do it through ticket if the option isn't available in the panel.
Dealing with support is kind of a consequence of rather than an issue in itself, genuinely interested to know what problems you had they couldn't resolve.
I used to use Zoho free tier with a single domain some years ago, still receive some mail on that, but switched to MXRoute for multiple newer domains. But never had any real issues with Zoho back then so curious how they are now given your response.
That was the thing - it wasn't anything super technical (Initially it was trying to verify ownership of the domain) then it was mail not syncing, or when it eventually did, extremely slow syncing (30+ min), emails not being sent/received - things that usually can be remedied in a short period of time.
When not being able to send/receive mails is your issue and you're 2+ weeks into a support ticket and 8 different support agents, it's frustrating. Even moreso when they closed the ticket as "resolved' and you have to re-open a ticket to tell them it absolutely wasn't resolved.
I understand not being capable of speaking perfect and concise English as a non-native speaker but it was to the point where you're looking for Ashton Kutcher to pop up on your screen and tell you that you're being punk'd.
Zoho isn't the worst (that spot is held by Ionos) but they're a solid 2nd place for companies I'd never even consider dealing with again.

What's the trick, sir? I've been struggling with delivery to outlook for quite some time..
They have: https://sendersupport.olc.protection.outlook.com/pm/troubleshooting - you'll want to sign up for JMRP and then you can contact support: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=614866 - the first reply you get might not be that helpful ("does not qualify for mitigation"), but if you explain it again, it usually gets sorted out (sometimes you will be asked for proof that a particular IP address has been assigned to you).
It´s not rocket science.
