Looking for a email-provider where i can host my own domain (feddit.de)

Not really about selfhosting, but I read that a lot of selfhosters do not selfhost their emails. Should have pop/imap.

I am thinking about iCloud that offers 3 aliases, but actually I need 5. Does iCloud has a catchall-option?

mailbox.org and skiff are „too expensive“ with 3€/month.

migadu is another candidate. 19€/year.

I once read about a cheap one-man-show-E-Mail-provider, that I would like to try, but I can‘t remember the name.

Do you have more suggestions?

Edit:

Thanks for your recommendations! After a short comparism, these are my current candidates:

icloud 12€/year 3 emailadresses/50GB BUT catchall-option (good)

mxroute 80€/lifetime unlimited/10GB

purelymail 9€/year unlimited/unlimited - BUT one man show (bad)

infomanikak mail-service 18€/year 5 adresses/unlimited

sorted out

migadu 19€/year unlimited / only 5GB / BUT only 20/200 (out/in) mails a day (bad)

Protonmail -> no SMTP (bad)

posteo -> no own domain possible (bad)

other recommendations: too expensive

Just switched to iCloud last week. Yes, it does catch-all (although it needs to be enabled through a checkbox in one of the settings menu). It also does sub-addressing / plus-addressing natively (no menu setting needed), which doesn’t seem to actually be documented but it works flawlessly for me.

I’ve been extremely happy with it so far. Pairing plus addressing with some of the filtering rules allows me to direct bulk mail to the right place automatically. For whatever reason, filtering rules can’t be done on iOS but need to be set through icloud.com (not sure if they can be set on macOS).

@JoeHill it’s rather odd how it works, as there are rules in the Mail app on macOS and they do sync. But you can only access and adjust those rules on a Mac and they only evaluate when the app is running on a Mac. It’s definitely something I wish they would add and integrate throughout all the iCloud ecosystem
