I self host pretty much everything, but one of the services I find makes more sense to not self host is an email server.

I’ve got a few domains I’d like to have emails for, and usually I’d go for Tutanota or protonmail. But in this instance I’m looking for something dirt cheap. These domains are for a hobby club so I’m much less concerned with privacy like I usually would be. Anybody got any recommendations?

So far namecheap seems like my best option for under $8/month. They would bundle with my domain registration and I’m assuming having both on the same service would make things pretty seamless to set up.

Not crazy concerned with privacy for these particular accounts. Namecheap or similar is reputable enough.

Migadu micro tier is $19/year. Great service and has a great privacy policy. Basically unlimited domains. Ive been very happy with them.

Migadu is so great. I really want to see more services like that, with so much focus on just being honest and good.

Our admin panel won't win any beauty contests and that's a good thing. It's built to be obvious and efficient.

I'm in love.

There is with Purelymail. And it's only $10/year.

Purelymail, cock.li and similar are on the more edgy joking side, while Migadu is just honest and can be used in professional environment.

I'm aware cock.li is for the meme edgelords, but what about purelymail?

I ended up going with migadu. Seems great so far. Already up and running with 3 domains and dozens of aliases.

Have a look at "pattern rewrites" too if you use lots of aliases. It's sort of like catch-all aliases with wildcards.
