[0] <https://github.com/ag91/emacs-buddy> +# Discussion + +- Q: OFF TOPIC and not a question but a remark: hotmail.com is + constantly blocking more and more smaller email servers (for valid + but also dubious reasons) and many administrators are frustrated + enough not to try to get off Microsoft\'s blocklist any more. So + your email address might not be reachable by a substantial set of + people especially people who do not use the big email players such + as Google. + - A: oh what do you suggest? I can use/make a different one + - Karl: I\'d recommend not to use Microsoft email servers in + general as I\'ve realized in too many situations that admins + gave up fighting Microsoft. For example, my Mastodon + instance can not be used any more by people using hotmail + for that reason. Sometimes, admins do have to pay real money + in order to get unblocked by Microsoft. This is a pattern + I\'d not support myself. YMMV. + - The worst part: users of Hotmail do not realize this + until they really need to contact a company or a person + who got blocked. + - Ah didn\'t know that, I will look into it then. Thanks! + - Have a look at e.g. mailbox.org (using renewables), + migadu.com (partly), posteo.de (if you don\'t require an own + domain\...) + - For people who focus on mobile apps and webmailers, + protonmail might be a good idea. They are Swiss-based + and focus on a very high level of privacy and security. + AFAIR IMAP is only for payed plans and for for the free + plan. + - interesting, thanks!
