Hello guys. My mother is starting a business and we already have a domain but I am searching for a free hosting which there are a few ones but I noticed that none of them have the ability to host an email. The only I can do is park a domain but when I go to email section the only thing I can do is like redirect an existing email to other. No other way to create an email from the existing domain. Should I buy a hosting instead? Otherwise I have the possibility to buy only an email hosting from the domain provider. Thank you.

My .com domain was migrated from Google to Squarespace late 2023, and was recently transferred from Squarespace to porkbun a few days ago (the transfer process was just completely today). But porkbun charges additional fee for customized email hosting. However, porkbun offers free email forwarding, therefore, I have [email protected] with porkbun. Is there a way to connect [email protected] to some website and make it work as a mailbox?

Is there any decent domain registrar offering free email hosting and decent/inexpensive renewable fee?

I mean customized email with my own domain. Hopefully, the email can be added to outlook desktop app, so that I can use outlook to manage its messages.

Thanks.

Just curious what people might be using for email hosting for their custom domains. This won't be my main personal email account. Mostly I want to use it for sending outbound notifications from my server so that they actually come from my custom domain rather then sending them out via my personal Gmail account.

Maybe setup a couple inbound addresses for generic stuff as well, but I could handle those via Cloudflare's Email routing beta as well.

Edit: Thanks All, ended up setting up Zoho. One thing that's disappointing with it is that the sender email needs to match the users account. So I needed to create a generic user email account for all my no-reply emails, and in theory those addresses could also receive emails. But not a deal breaker by any means.

This week I saw a post here showing how you can host your email with icloud for really cheap and it got me thinking about this.

What are some self-hosted solutions for email with your own domain and what are the costs associated with them?

Also open to non-self-hosted options like the icloud one.

So I have researched about self hosting your own email server such as Mailcow but it seems pretty divided on whether or not you should do it due emails potentially not getting delivered due to spam filters and such. So I'm kinda not interested in self hosting so I'm wondering what is the next best option to get my own email ideally for free but maybe settle for really cheap?

Edit: I have my own domain already.

Edit2: Thank you all! I have my domain with Cloudflare so I have tried their email routing but would like to be able to send from it too. I'll check out some other suggestions.

Edit3: Wow this got a lot of replies. Again thanks all for the recommendations. I haven't had a chance to actually check any out yet (busy weekend) but I will get to it.

Edit4: So I've had a little time to look at some of the options and it looks like maybe Zoho, onepoundemail or PurelyMail. They are both fairly cheap and around the same price. Anyone know how they compare?

Edit5: I ended up paying for Zoho for $12/year. So far it's doing everything I wanted and more. Very happy with it! Thank you all!!!

I've just bought a domain and am looking for cheap email hosting for a short time (~1yr) until I decide on a longer term solution. Ideally I'll use my preferred email client (not a web portal). But most importantly I need to be able to reliably send email from my domain, not being flagged as spam all the time.

I was going to setup a Linux server in my home, but don't have a static IP and so no RDNS and am concerned with my emails being flagged as spam.

I saw noip hosted mail is $10 for a year, but there is not much information on what it can and can't do. Has anyone used it before? If so can I use it with my own domain without transfering my domain registrar to them?

I'm open to other options, just needs to be cheap for the time being and reliable at sending mail.

Thanks

I don't know if this is the correct place to post.

I'm starting a small business and I need a domain name + business email hosting (I don't need web hosting for now).

My issue is a lot of service providers do the "It's extremely cheap the first year, but it renews at 5 times the initial price" crap. What are good options?

I don't need fancy features, I just need 1 mailbox and being able to use it on my phone and PC.

I bought a domain from web.com. I hosted it and pointed it's nameservers to infinityfree.com. And I made a custom email with zoho.com.

But now I need more emails. I can make more emails with cloudflare but for that I need to change domain's nameservers to cloudflare but i can't do that because I'm hosting it on infinityfree.com.

Can anyone guide me how I can achieve that or any others methods for free emails?

I also have a hosting plan with another hosting provider. There I'm hosting another domain. that plan also has emails. but I can't host another domain there. It allows only one. is there any way I can use those emails for the domain I hosted on infinityfree.com?

Sorry if it's confusing, I know it's messed up but I can't pay for hosting right now. I need totally free. Thanx :)

Hello!

I am struggling to find what I need, and I am thinking that actually the service I am looking for does not exist for free.

I am setting up a business and am looking for a free email and calendar hosting service that allow me to also use my custom domain.

Above that, it would be nice to have the ability to use third-party apps like Gmail, Outlook or Mail (iOS), but mainly Gmail because that's where my personal email is.

I think this is a lot to ask for free and couldn't find a service yet that has all these things together. So far I came accross:

Hostinger: free, up to 100 accounts, but it seems to not have the calendar functionality. If anyone knows how to "solve" this, I would appreciate.

Zoho: free, up to 5 accounts, has email and calendar, but I can't connect it to third-party apps (correct me if I'm wrong).

Thanks! Would love to hear your inputs.

Hi all,

I'm working on setting up an email service for my domain, so that I'm able to both receive emails and send emails from an email address inside my domain. I've heard the goto options as email providers are Microsoft 365 and Google Workspaces. The problem is that both options are a bit expensive for my needs, as I only need the email capabilities, not the productivity suite that comes bundled with it.

The cheapest alternative is configuring one of my regular GMail accounts to send from an address in my domain. However, as I started configuring it, it gets to a point where they ask about an SMTP server, and I'm not sure what should I type there since I have no SMTP provider (which was kind of the point of trying to use GMail in the first place).

I looked into ZeptoMail, but it is just for transactioinal emails, so receiving support cases through my email address and proactively reaching out to people seem no to be covered by it. Perhaps Zoho Mail is the way to go, seems it seems to allow for more use cases?

I have the feeling I may be missing some basic concepts, so feel free to explain anything to me as if I were five.

Previously I've used Zoho, but they've now introduced a paid for the feature I'm after that used to be free.

I'm looking for a service that will allow me:

• Pop Access

• Email forwarding

• Catch-all for inbound

• SMTP for sending

• Domain/email verification via DNS records.

Volume is going to be low <500 emails a month.

I do have two domains but I'm happy managing them from separate accounts if the provider doesn't support multi-domains.

Looking for 2-3 emails per domain at the moment.

Gmail offers free smtp but it doesn't allow any verification so some providers receiving see that its coming from my gmail address not my custom domain.

Improv.mx offers a free catch-all service which I use for some other domains that don't require outbound.

Does anyone know of any providers that offer what Zoho used to?

Edit as solved:

As suggested by u/tjuk MailGun solved all my problems perfectly.

Hi! I was looking for a way to cut costs and among other things I replaced a paid email hosting service for my custom domains with free services such as Cloudflare. I thought I'd share in case someone might be interested. Do you use a hosting service for your custom domains email? Which one?

Here's the post:

I just registered a domain and though I am not doing anything with it right now, I would like to connect a free e-mail service to it that is preferably compatible with MS Outlook. Are there any good ones out there? Recommendations great appreciated!

Im a recent college graduate and wanting to start my own freelance branding/business in my trade. I was wondering about free email domain hosting, until start taking in more jobs and can afford to pay for one. I feel like it would give a more professional look to my cards and other marketing, does anybody know if anyone offers this sort of thing?

What's your favourite free email host? I've heard about Zoho but the free tier lacks in IMAP and POP3 support. What are some better alternatives and why?

I currently have Bluehost for my web and email hosting. I KNOW it's shitty, that's why I'm trying to get off Bluehost. I plan to move my site to Kinsta but I am looking for an email host. A host that allows me to setup multiple email addresses at no extra cost. Like for example I have my personal work email address. Then I have a general business one like [email protected] then I have one for my email newsletter.

I want them all to have separate inboxes and not have my personal work email flooded with junk and out of office replies from my newsletter. What's a good email host for this?

I am currently using Microsoft 365 with a custom domain for email service. I would like to move away from M365 because of cost (i.e., I get it at no cost today but will have to start paying for it later next year). I am looking for email service recommendations where I can have a custom domain (e.g., [email protected]). It doesn't have to be free but something a lot more affordable (for personal/family use) is desired. I am aware of Google Workspace but am looking for other options as well. Thanks!

is there some service where they allow you to host emails for free with a custom domain ?

Could anyone recommend email providers that let you use your own domain. This isn't for a business account so I don't need anything crazy, I just want a personal email provider that will let me create my own email address using my custom domain I've purchased
