Suggestion/recommendation please - email domain hosting

(1/3) > >>

Rick Law:
Like to hear your opinion and experience...

I have a couple of domains names for email currently hosted by gmail.  Gmail's severe limitation with pop and smtp is getting to me, I have enough and now want to move these email domain hosting out from gmail.

I am looking for hosting company to host my email domains (pop and smtp with SSL is adequate, no website hosting).  I don't plan to store stuff there.  I plan to continue picking up the email using pop and store it myself.

Any hosting services you would recommend?

Suggestions welcome and thanks

I personally use and can recommend FastMail. But I do store the mail with them and use Web interface on PC and IMAP for mobile clients. So, evaluate if it works for your use case.

SiliconWizard:
If you already have a domain name, you can get email hosting for a moderate cost, depending on your needs (number of mail accounts, max size?) from various services.
I use Gandi, which works quite well, but they have raised their prices lately so I'm not sure I would recommend it much anymore - see if it fits your budget.

I've heard of Fastmail too, seems well regarded, but I don't know if they offer pop access.

You beat me to it.  I use Gandi too, they provide e-mail with two kinds of web interfaces (one of them is Roundcube, which is meh) and also IMAP & POP3 access.  One good thing is that you can have unlimited aliases and also wildcards, very useful for seeing who gives out your e-mail address to spammers.

I use Google Workspace and have found it to be excellent. It supports IMAP, POP3, SMTP and GWSMO (if you're an Outlook user on Windows).

What issues were you having with POP3/SMTP?
