Im tried of giving my data to google for all my email needs. Preferably I would like to use the thunderbird client.

I also have a number of self hosted services. I used to run my own email server, but ATT no longer allows the ports open and I want to move away from self hosting that solution. Figured I would ask people what they use here, since Im assuming others are in a similar situation.

Any suggestions?

Iirc SMTP and whatnot is business only for Proton, so I assume you're sending alert emails through some other service like myself, right? I've been using SMTP2GO's free tier and it works well for my very low usage needs, would love to hear more about your setup if you have any tips.

Yeah essentials is the low tier business plan
