Although I think that I’ve researched a lot, something might missed my research. So I would like the below:
- Be able to provide and admin various domains for email services.
- Each domain will have each own users and be independent and each user should have their own mailbox. Don’t want 1 user with different email addresses.
- Modern UI. So I guess no Migadu.
- Apps for iOS and Android or be able to use Foss apps like K9.
- Provide white label option for each domain to have their own logos etc.
As far as I looked, Zoho is close to what I’m looking for but now sure. Also looked infomaniak which might offer those too.
So, please provide your feedback 😀
Edit: Don’t want Google and I’m talking about a paid plan. I’m aware that what I ask cannot be provided for free.
I believe protonmail has their business plan which probably fits the bill. It seems to check all of your boxes, admin console, custom domains, prexisting and FOSS apps on respective app stores, integration with 3rd party clients like Thunderbird, individual user accounts. For white label, I don’t know what that means, it doesn’t say that word for word on their site, could be some other name or they don’t have it?
Proton is a good fit, and skiff.com may fit the bill as well.
I switched from hosting my own mail for close to 10 years to using Fastmail. The webmail client is much better than Rainloop and Roundcube. I like it better than Gmail TBH. I’m very happy with my decision, but I’m only hosting for me.
I also considered Proton, but it doesn’t satisfy a couple of your requirements. It is a good value though, and the privacy features are tops.
The best value I’ve seen by far is Microsoft 365. The webmail for Outlook is quite good and you can host your own client if you want and connect with IMAP. It’s especially a good value if you use the family plan. Bonus is you also get MS Office and a TB of storage. Downside: Microsoft. But 2024 MS isn’t the same as 2005 M$.
Tuta may be ticking all your 5 entries. You can simply test it, sign up, pay the 12 Euros per year, go for custom domain and check the options.
I don’t think Tuta ticks any box I’m afraid. Their UI is very basic, they charge per user and they don’t offer white labelling…
I really wanted them to offer some more but no…same goes with Proton although they have nicer UI.
How about Fastmail then ?
Really like tuta, have to admit that i’ve not looked closely at the paid options but they provide their services for free to our open source project and it functionality even on that tier is pretty great.
I can’t suggest anyone because I use gsuite legacy but in 2022 when they were going to stupidly start charging for something they said would be free forever people put together a spreadsheet comparing providers. Might be out of date for some but might be helpful.
Here is the Reddit thread for it and Here’s a direct link to the spreadsheet
This spreadsheet is seriously outdated. Protonmail has gotten ridden of visionary and revamped their plans for a while now.
