Hey guys,

after looking into selfhosting email it seems to me that it’s probably better if I use an existing email hoster like Namecheap or Porkbun.

Now I saw that Porkbun doesn’t offer catchall emails so I can’t use it for my usecase.

Do you guys have any recommendations for a reasonably priced email hoster for a custom domain that offers all basic features like catchall? The purpose is for one domain I use for my personal stuff and one for a small side hustle/ small business.

Thanks so much in advance for your help!

      After reading that post and the linked github issues, with the latest updates and comments from the last 24 hours. Here’s the TL;DR:

      • This is only relevant if you want to use an email client with Proton Bridge.
      • If you’re just using Proton for encryption and signing (you can use the same PGP outside of proton too) then there is no issue at all.
      • If you want an external tool (like a hardware yubikey) to decrypt your messages that someone else has sent to you using the public key that corresponds to the external tool there will be signature validation shenanigans. This is because Proton expects to be the only entity doing any encryption.This is an important issue for those that need to send encrypted emails (and signatures) with specific keys.
      • It is not an issue for anyone using Proton email for a secure email service even if they want to use an external email client on desktop (like Thunderbird) with Proton Bridge.

      Please correct me if I missed something.

        You got it right, lots of drama, not really anything to worry about unless you’re very fringe and have people you email via PGP with “super secure” PGP keys (and honestly I’d trust Proton more than I’d trust most people to roll their own PGP… it’s hard stuff to get PGP right).
