Figure I'd ask here, but I'm looking to set something up for email in the future, I'm looking into custom domains so that if something happens with one email account, then I have more security in mind to pick up from there as opposed to being screwed.

I know that fully self hosting email full stop is usually not recommended, so I'm up for any advice anyone has on that end.

Disroot support never responded to my request, even though I supported them monthly so I looked elsewhere. No complaints with mailbox.org

@skankhunt42 Your request for your own domain? I never used Disroot, but I'm thinking about moving, because mailbox.org keeps trying to force me to a more expensive plan with less features than my current plan.

Yeah. My first request was to add a couple GB to my nextcloud and get a couple aliases. Then I wanted to move my mail to them and nothing. I followed up a couple times.

How is mailbox bothering you? I have the cheapest that allows a custom domain and I've never seen anything about moving to a different plan.

Mailbox.org is great, I like that you get caldav and carddav as well. They're very privacy conscious as well. It's true the recent price increase doesn't make me happy either. The service is great and I couldn't find a better deal so I stick with them. Except for the price everything is perfect imho
