What European email services do you use?

Please recommend other interesting email services by your experience.

I have switched from Google's Gmail to ProtonMail and kMail. I really like both, kMail (by Infomaniak) have very similar app interface to Gmail so you will get used to it very fast and also have big storage for free and very good offers for paid plans ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Why is Kmail in there?

Kmail is a client: it can't host.

https://mailfence.com/ Belgian, 1Gb

https://www.gmx.com/ German Restrictions: 50MB attachments. Require an alternate email to sign up.

I tried posteo and eclipso before settling on mailbox.org.

Coming from gmail.

I'm using Soverin myself. Switched a few months back and they've been great so far

Just a quick notice about proton here. While it is great if you tend to forget your passwords be carefull beacuse you will lose all your mail history when you recover. I would reccomend something more casual for casual users.

If you use Proton and forget your passwords, it's okay because the Proton CEO openly praised a US president who has a history of breaking privacy laws and is actively antagonizing allies. With that moral compass running Proton, your privacy and security might be compromised at a later date.

That second sentence could do with a disambiguating comma...

It might not be for everyone but you could grab a domain + webspace for like 2โ‚ฌ/month.

yeah good luck getting through all the spam filtering, and dealing with spam.

I'm happy with the Belgian mailfence

"Needs client app" is a funny way of saying it "supports open protocols as first class citizens".

[โ€“] varyingExpertise@feddit.org 2 points 5 hours ago

Yeah, what's up with that? IMAP, SMTP and CardDAV to good for some people or what?

[โ€“] crazyhotpasta@lemm.ee 4 points 17 hours ago

I switched from gmail to gmx mail. I like it very much.

Fuck Proton and their Trumps-ass-kissing CEO though.
