Fastmail, all the way
I bought into Fastmail about 10 years ago (for 7 years) & recently moved to Proton about 5 years ago. Both are excellent privacy-first providers. Gmail is my junk e-mail at this point. Good recommendation. Australia-based business. Fastmail & Proton are my votes. I tried self-hosting for a few years & would agree with below -- too many issues with blacklists. This is one you should consider paying for.
I'm getting tired of not having IMAP/SMTP access with Protonmail. How would you recommend Fastmail? Anything negative?
