What provider?

Running an online forum, I've encountered people using Atomic Mail, and that service has terrible reliability.

Namecheap's "private email" service.

  • that’s “globally recognised”? Run from them as fast as possible if you would any of your services to work

    • Well obviously yes, namecheap have been around a very long time and after GoDaddy (the default in the early 2000s for most people) Namecheap became a kind of default. One would think that a company with an online presence going back over two decades, and one a relatively low number of domain registrars, is "globally recognised".

      Whether they're "good" or even "passable" is another matter entirely, but without switching away from Google to Namecheap for a few months, one wouldn't have much of an idea. And now I know.

      How many really decent email providers are there aside from Google? What's today's obvious choice? And will they last?
