MXroute are advertising their '2025 Lifetime 15G' promotion package:

https://accounts.mxroute.com/index.php?/cart/2025-promotions/

It would cost $1 per year, plus a $248 setup fee. Basically, the $1 per year is a 'trigger' to ensure that the account is still wanted by a customer.

If you are hosting mail with #MXroute, please note that their "Expert Spam Filtering" (default enabled, but not rolled out everywhere yet) classifies mail servers hosted at #Hetzner as

> suspicious IP ranges that typically don't host legitimate mail servers

https://docs.mxroute.com/docs/expert-spam-filtering.html

The result is that MXroute bounces legitimate mail without ever notifying their customer.

> 550 Unauthenticated mail not allowed from this range to protected domain

The recourse is to ask for whitelisting.

I am looking for a reliable mail hosting provider, with 2FA, unlimited aliases (including catch-all * ), POP+SMTP+IMAP, no mobile app required, with configurable domain but not bundled to the provider being the registrar. Possibly based in EU/Switzerland.

Discarded options:
- I am moving away from Gandi.
- Infomaniak seems to require registering domain with them.
- Zoho based in UK.
- MXroute does not seem to offer 2FA.
- Autistici/Inventati only with one of their domains (not configurable).
- Fastmail based in Australia.
- Mailcheap based in USA.

Thankful for any suggestions 😀

@rachel I use #MXRoute for all my domains, does the trick for me and I know my mail is in good hands.

@jenna it seems to be an issue with #Gmail in particular.

I use #MXRoute for my personal email account - I just tried sending an email from that account via Apple Mail and it did not reveal my IP address. The first "Received" header is my #MXRoute mail server.

Let's see how this goes. In my ever-growing fear of getting locked out of my life from losing access to my Google and/or Apple accounts, I threw together a few things for self-hosting my own e-mail.

I purchased the lifetime 10GB storage, unlimited domains/emails deal from #MXRoute for $99. I installed getmail, dovecot-imapd, and dovecot-submissiond on my home server.

getmail uses POP-SSL to check for new e-mails every 5 minutes, retrieve them, and delete them from MXRoute's mailbox. I have a separate getmailrc file for each mailbox. These are transformed into Maildir structure/format in a ZFS pool. The 10GB storage in MXRoute is now just a receiving buffer and should be plenty in the case of local downtime.

Meanwhile, dovecot serves IMAP-SSL and SMTP-SSL using certificates generated by Caddy for my other services. The IMAP piece retrieves passwords by invoking pass, but submissiond (the SMTP-SSL relay submission server added to Dovecot in 2.3) seems not to have the same password_command functionality as Dovecot's other features (yet?), so that's unfortunately in permissed plaintext for a relay e-mail account only used for sending (no inbox).

Next step are a few management scripts as there's some duplication between configurations, but overall I'm happy with how quick it was to set up.

@MadSci that's exactly what I fear too. I use #MXRoute purely to solve the IP reputation challenge for email. While they've been great to work with, I'd prefer not to see the #fediverse go the same way.

It feels like getting on the #relay train early might be the best individual defense against this.
