Basically, the title. I have the domain, and have used it in the past with Google Workspace and MS365, but both of those services enshitified, so I’m looking for something that won’t screw me.
Don’t really care about things like password manager, VPN, cloud drive, etc. Just looking for email service for about 5 users that can be configured to work w/ native email clients on macos, windows, linux, iOS (so Proton & Tuta are out). Anyone have any experience with this? Really don’t want to roll my own.
I migrated over to Proton last night before realizing that I had to set up the bridge for it to work on macos mail, and can only use the nativ client on mobile. So, trying to find something soon, so I can cancel within the 30-day period.
This is c/selfhosted. This is not the forum to ask for advice about email services you don’t directly control. There are some self-hosted options provided in the comments already. Locking this post to prevent further non-selfhosted discussions.
Has worked well for me, but keeping in mind that email is probably about the hardest thing to properly self host.
DMARC/DKIM/SPF/MX records have to be set up properly, DNS for auto config and such preferable, and dealing with a myriad of mail IP blacklists (good monitoring service for free: https://mxtoolbox.com/) all come into play.

I suggest stalwart mail, it can run in a binary or in docker, https://github.com/stalwartlabs/stalwart also +1 for mailcow.
Fastmail for 5 users will be on the expensive side. Further downscale: mxroute, cranemail, and migadi should all be ok.
@d00phy Try out mxroute or namecrane. Both are working fine.
mailbox.org works for me
Fastmail has been doing it for a while, check them out

I can’t recommend Purelymail enough. Cheap (10€ per year), and you can have as many accounts and inbox space as you. You can also connect as many domains as you want.
Check out Infomaniak which has more than just email so could be useful if looking for more of a like for like replacement for O365. If you just want email, somebody mentioned mailbox.org which I have also used and is good.
I’ve been on purelymail.com for a couple of years. Receive about 1000 emails a month and send out about 50. Averaging around $0.40/month. They also have a flat rate option of $10/year as long as you don’t abuse the system.
Inleed.xyz has free email hosting with IMAP and POP3 access. You can have as many accounts as you want, but there’s a limit of 1GB shared between all of them.
