Default Email hosting.

I currently have email hosting (through godaddy) which uses Microsoft 365.

I dislike that I have to use outlook on my phone and can’t use the iPhone mail app.

My term is almost up and I’d like to change. I think I’m paying about 40/year for my email.

Anybody have a suggestion of where I can move my email hosting to?


Thank you

I just moved my domain and email to namecheap because I moved my website to Wix. No longer needed full hosting and Wix email is too much $ as well.

One email account with aliases is a couple dollars a month at namecheap. Is working well so far. Was impressed with their control panel admin and they have great info on getting everything setup correctly. Don’t see any reason you can’t use the regular iOS mail app to get it.

I pull all my email accounts into gmail with pop3 before using IMAP on iPhone though.

I was thinking of moving to Zoho after my Google Apps discount ends next year.

Also was considering this: https://tutanota.com/pricing/

If you subscribe to iCloud+ then they have an option for a custom domain too:

https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT212514

Or was looking at this, where you can basically just get your email redirected: https://www.pobox.com/

And yeah I do the same thing, I have all my various email addresses set to forward to a single gmail account and access that on my phone or devices (and set up a "send as" so I can send looking like I am sending from any particular address).

You have an iPhone and ergo are unworthy of assistance.

Slurp your gruel silly meatsack!!

No, I just genuinely have nothing to add. Outlook works great on my Samsung.

You should be able to use the Mail app in iOS:

https://ca.godaddy.com/help/add-my-m...-or-ipad-16560


Honestly I would just stick with Microsoft 365 unless you had a specific use case for anything else. $40 a year for I'm assuming a 10gb mailbox is pretty reasonable.

Circling back - in the end the ICloud suggestion ended up working for me.

Thanks for this!
