Help with email + alias provider (lemmy.world)

My Proton pass subscription is coming to an end, and I am looking for alternative email + alias My requirements are: Private European (or at least, not US and with a good mission) Thunderbird/3rd party support for mail Bitwarden integration (for creating new aliases on the fly) 2+ non random emails (so I can unify my profesional and personal mails)

For the moment I am eyeing either Tuta (free) or Mailbox (light) + addy.io (UK, but there arent many options Ive seen on alias services), with the idea to increase the tier of both email if/when required. More leaning towards Mailbox light as it covers the multiple emails for cheaper.

Any sugestion?

Addy.io is great, i am a happy customer and can highly recommend. Not sure if the company is uk or not, but this is something i checked earlier:

The server is located in Amsterdam, Netherlands with Greenhost.net. Greenhost focuses greatly on privacy and security and their servers run entirely on Dutch wind energy. The backup mail server is located in Warsaw, Poland with UpCloud.

I am happy with Tuta, but I believe they do not support third-party email clients. Posteo and MailFence are two privacy-centered European email providers that do, and both offer email aliases.

Mailbox has aliases. (3 also included in LIGHT) It also has "disposable addresses" but not in LIGHT configuration. I think you need at least to pay for STANDARD.

However, I don't quite understand what you mean with "Bitwarden integration". Wouldn't a browser plugin or something being used for that?

[โ€“] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Bitwarden can create the aliases from the extension itself, so I can generate the email and the password in the same place.

They need to support the service first

I've been using Fastmail (Australian) for years. Costs ~AU$60/year, charged in your local currency.

BYO domain if you want, Masked Emails (random usernames that you can reply from), multiple addresses, full username+@ and/or @username support, groupware suite (email, calendar, contacts, notes, etc), great native apps on all platforms, *DAV support, app passwords (for SMTP, POP3, IMAP, CalDAV, etc), flawless transfer of mailbox history to it (I did almost 15 years of Gmail without a problem), etc, etc.

It doesn't automatically integrate with Bitwarden (AFAIK). They have a 1Password partnership that might, but I use BW with no issue.

You could try an email hoster, e.g. https://goneo.de/. That one is quite lowcost. Youโ€˜d have your own domain and thanks to catch-all could invent new addresses on the fly. Their data is hosted in Germany. Of course there are other vendors as well.

[โ€“] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I wouldn't try to host my own, they can't make it fool proof enough.

But thanks for the suggestion.
