  • I use the one that’s built in to the Fastmail service. I have a custom domain just for aliases. The Fastmail alias-creation API is integrated with the Bitwarden app (which I use) so that makes creating new accounts (that use email addresses as usernames) on websites really easy. I also use Spamgourmet which is free, convenient, and has been around a very long time. No custom domains there, but they let you use a variety of their domains and they have some short ones which is nice, but I do find that they’re blocked pretty often, mostly by major mailing list services.









  • Long-time Bitwarden customer, and I did the exact same thing. Prior to that I hadn’t even been aware of the OTP functionality in the BW desktop app. Glad I made the move early and don’t have to scramble now. This new deadline is going to be a real pain for a lot of Authy desktop users. Weird that the company didn’t even feel the need to explain to users the reason for the drastic EOL change. I’ve used some of their voice/sms services in the past but if I need that kind of thing in the future I’m going to have a good look around at the competitors before I write a line of code or open my wallet again.

    No SMTP or IMAP as it’s an E2EE service and unlike Proton they don’t (yet anyway) have a “bridge” service. You get to use your own domain, a handful of aliases, and a generous amount of storage all on the free plan with higher limits on the paid plans.

    Anyone looking for standard mail protocol support and gobs of storage for free/cheap and who are cool with a very non-sexy 90s web UI, would do well to check out the European provider mail.ee . They’ve been reliable for me over the past year or so though I’m not exactly a high-volume customer.
