A self hosted email server for privacy while keeping thunderbird access
Otherwise protonmail is the way to go
Self hosting email is most often a nightmare, so many big companies block just because.
It is definitely a pain in the ass but I’ve haven’t had any companies as far as I know block my emails yet with my setup. The biggest thing is setting up your dns correctly to prevent your emails from going straight to spam
Good for you, I have simply given up. By setting up your DNS, do you mean the DKIM keys or something else?
Yah the dkim was largely what I had issues with. Mostly because it wasn’t mentioned to me that it was necessary. But once I was aware of it it was quick to fix
Protonmail is paid and im dumb fpr selfhosting uwu
proton mail has a free plan
EDIT: can’t be used with thunderbird tho afaik
Precisely
Actually, it can, altough only via Protonmail Bridge
Protonmail has a free plan with a inbox size limit that 99% of people will never hit. I’ve had it since 2019 and only 15% usage of my capacity
Not a lot of other good options if you don’t self host which is a bitch even for professionals nowadays
What I mean is that you need to pay in order to remove the impossibility of using an e-mail client.
Ah you are correct. Never heard of their bridge until now
disroot is a great option, but it’s recommended to use PGP for the best privacy
are the emails on disroot’s servers encrypted ?
From privacy policy:
We use disk encryption on all servers to prevent data leak in case the servers are stolen, confiscated or in any way physically tampered with.
Other than that, I think they’re not encrypted, but they’re also working on Lacre, and they’ll most likely start testing it on disroot soon. https://disroot.org/en/blog/tag:lacre
