Janneke<p>TL:DR; can you recommend an email provider that supports sieve and works for email based development and doesn't block/reject any valid emails?</p><p>Okay. I've been doing email based development for over 25y now using the amazing, multiple times award winning internetprovider <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/xs4all" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xs4all</span></a>.</p><p>Sadly, xs4all was killed by the Dutch telecom giant <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/KPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KPN</span></a>. Email-wise this means that <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/sieve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sieve</span></a> support was dropped and a helpdesk is virtually non-existing.</p><p>So I switched to <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@freedominternet" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>freedominternet</span></a></span> but they don't have the skills to do email and outsourced it to <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/soverin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>soverin</span></a>. They do support sieve (sort of via a clumsy web interface), but they keep rejecting valid emails (some four a day) sent to development lists. The helpdesk takes weeks to respond with a useless answer. This is terrible.</p><p>Self-hosting (as we did in the old days) might be an option but I'm not up to date with what is needed. A <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/Guix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Guix</span></a> recipe for an email server setup with dovecot and sieve would be amazing here (but knowledge on how to create that seems hard to get <<a href="https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2024-09/msg00017.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/</span><span class="invisible">help-guix/2024-09/msg00017.html</span></a>>)</p><p>Anyway until we have that, any amazing email provider can you recommend?</p><p>Cc: <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.nl/@angrynerdspodcast" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>angrynerdspodcast</span></a></span><br><a href="https://todon.nl/tags/askFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>askFedi</span></a> <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/dtv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dtv</span></a></p>
