Looking for a good e-mail provider that's not Tuta/Proton (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

EDIT: I decided on Mailbox.org!

Cross-posted from "Looking for a good e-mail provider that's not Tuta/Proton" by @Yingwu@lemmy.dbzer0.com in !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I'd like to use a third-party client like Thunderbird to handle my e-mails, which rules out both Tuta and Proton (I know Proton has their bridge, but I don't want to rely on it). I'm willing to compromise on my e-mails not being encrypted, as long as the e-mail provider has a reputation of caring about the customer's privacy. If I truly want to encrypt a message, I'll encrypt it myself. I've been looking at Mailbox.org, and while I've been hearing good things, people have also been complaining about their lack of support, outdated interface as well as that they don't enforce DKIM/DMARC which enables spoofing.

I would like to be able to use my own custom domain, but also to use their own domain for my e-mail aliases. EU-based only.

Any thoughts?

    As am Australian, do not trust us, we keep votong for politcans who are happy to use the no prowvacy dildo of consequence and use the CSAM/ terrorist trope to attack anyone against it.

    Infomaniak? Thundermail? The latter only has a waitlist for now, unfortunately.

    Thanks, but apparently Infomaniak has some privacy-related issues.

    Disroot and Autistici are both good options that work with IMAP :D

    For anyone reading this: Mailbox.org is great, alternatives I like too are posteo and disroot. I use Discord and am happy with it. Its free and optional one time fee upgrades are possible

    Is it not possible to use thunderbird (or any email client) wirh tutu (or any email provider)? I thought you could plug in your email provider's smtp and imap/pop information and your account credentials into any app.

    I use posteo. The interface is nothing to write home about, but since I use thunderbird, this is not a dealbreaker (for me).

    Buy your own domain name, rent a mail-hotel, and you have the full control. Set it up with IMAP, and enjoy it in Thunderbird.
