Ask HN: Email service for tiny company, 20 users, no marketing, no transactional

4 points by michaelkariv 3 years ago · 8 comments · 1 min read


What email service would you recommend for my tiny company? I need to send and receive emails from personname@mydomain.com, about 20 user accounts, catchall (so that all emails to unknownuser@mydomain.com come to say catchall@domain.com), where price is not per account but per domain with unlimited or large number of accounts. No need for marketing campaigns or transactional emails from the SAAS we got, we have a solution for that.

UPDATE: a useful article, mentioning some of the services mentioned in the comments to my question, and to a similar question(https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32522919)

I would ideally have an email service separate from my domain web hosting. I would also need more than a couple of accounts some of the services provide (e.g. ZOHO)

Perhaps try Runbox (https://runbox.com/solutions/business/)?

    I looked at Runbox. Their offering does not satisfy my requirement "where price is not per account but per domain with unlimited or large number of accounts". What they have is a main account with lots of aliases, but each separate user account, which they call "subaccount" is extra pay.

Would hosting your own be an option? You can get a VM in your cloud provider of choice for say 10 USD a month, then add a control panel such as hestia, ispconfig, mailcow (and many others), and then you have full control over your email. Add as many domains, email accounts as you like.

    I should add that most of these options have installer scripts that take all the setup work out of the equation.

      I am a software developer, so I guess I could have done it. That said, I'd rather not do it, spending my time on other things.

Please add some context to the title.
