I am trying to capture costs for starting into homelab/selfhosting.

VPNs, search engines, absolutely everything and anything.

Which email host do you use? I can't decide which one to go for. I want something like migadu but they seem a bit scary with their message limits. The other option I have in mind is purelymail but I don't know if I trust them yet

    Not who you replied ti, but I've been on purelymail for about a year and a half. No complaints. $10.yr is great, and their billing statements claim I could be around $3/year if I switched to their advanced billing. I have nagging concern that they're hosted on AWS, and if your goal is to completely free yourself of US tech giants, then purelymail won't.

    Thanks for the input! Yeah, I haven't heard of any bad experience with them. Maybe I just need to take the leap of faith. Although the ownership change recently was a bit concerning but it seems like the operation quality hasn't reduced

    I checked it out, looks like they don't support catch all and have an artifical limitation on "aliases"

    For me, I think I would like to have catch all working without paying too much

    I'm pretty sure they do support catch all, because that's what I have. Or at least they used to and I'm grandfathered in.

    looked it up, seems like a quick setting:

    https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/9412/2214/how-to-set-up-catchall-in-namecheap-private-email/

    I'm pretty sure I have the cheapest, one email address option with catch-all. I didn't set up any aliases.
