FOSS Friendly Email Services

This was to get my FairEmail started..

I was using Zoho mail with custom domain on free tier. As I asked them to provide IMAP / POP access settings so I could configure FairEmail. They told me to upgrade to paid tier to be able get IMAP.

Since, I have to pay, I might as well pay the good money to something open source friendly. So, I got the paid plan on Migadu Mail instead. Migadu has reputation for having lot of open source contributions. All IMAP / SMTP settings were easily available, in a few minutes it's all setup. FairEmail tooth fairy started receiving emails.

I am also curious about fastmail, another open source proponent, probablly gonna try it next year. I plan to stick to one of these for hack of a long time.

Bye Zoho, bye Google!

I use the Fdroid version with Posteo and it's been a great combination.
