Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new "king"
Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it's an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503
Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!
I see a lot of good discussion here. I've been on proton for years now, using my own domain. While true that Andy is one of 5 board members, and it's a nonprofit etc, these statements are raising hairs on my neck, personally.
Does anyone have a good guide on problems associated with self-hosting email?
I think the main difficulty is getting companies like Gmail to recognize your domain as legitimate, as they don't by default
By default it should be OK. The problem is if your IP was previously used by someone bad before it recycled to you.
But it you have a server for a decade and have held the IP the whole time, you should be OK if you setup your email server correctly (which you probably won't)
