Simplest way to get gmail with custom domain
Probably not what you want to hear, but I‘d either pay for Workspace or not use Gmail (as in: Google‘s mail services). I can even give you an objective reason: forwarded emails will always be at risk to be labeled as spam either on your side or on the receiver‘s side. Those emails are also often marked as either insecure or marked as not coming from the original domain, depending on how you sent mails out (via a different smtp server or Gmails send as). On top of that, the forwarding services itself will apply spam filtering to make sure that their servers aren’t abused, so you add another point of failure. And if you use a different smtp server to send the mail, you would have to go find one that is not normally used for newsletters and marketing messages because you don’t want to send out your important personal emails via, for example, SendGrid. This means you would have to pay for a reputable email provider (so you get good scores) just to use their SMTP server. That‘s a lot of hoops to jump through just to get Gmail‘s UI.

Emails from my domain sent to gmail bouncing back as spam
Gmail is looking for an SPF record for *your* domain, which SPF record needs to include Ionos (it says that you give permission to Ionos to send email claiming to come from you). This is done by whomever is the entity that is hosting your domain (usually it's at your registrar, or Cloudflare if you use them). If you need more info, feel free to DM me More on reddit.com

r/gsuitelegacymigration on Reddit: Simplest way to get gmail with custom domain
June 28, 2023 -

Today I purchased Workspace to get an gmail with a custom domain. It works just fine, but workspace is pretty expensive, especially since I’m paying for a bunch of google services that I won’t use.

Previously, I tried email forwarding with cloudfare and it worked great. However, I had one case where Gmail gave a spooky yellow warning to the recipient of an email I’d sent. I can’t afford to have my email seem suspicious or spam since I intend to use this email for work. I’m also sad I can’t set a profile picture when forwarding emails.

Is there a clear and concise way to configure email forwarding such that it complies with every header and all email clients are happy? In the mean time, I’m too paranoid to use it for fear that my emails will be flagged or removed.

Email on your custom domain is actually in two parts. A) receiving mail at your custom domain. Almost any mail forwarding service will do this for you, and can forward mail received at your custom domain to a Gmail account. B) sending mail from your custom domain. You'll need a correctly configured smtp server to do so, with SPF, DKIM. You then configure gmail to send outgoing email via that smtp server. How much it will cost, depends on how much emails you send. Some providers have a free tier, up to a few hundred, or thousand, free outgoing emails per month, then a few cents (or dollars) for more.

r/smallbusiness on Reddit: What are some reasons to use a domain email address instead of a gmail account?
June 14, 2023 -

I'm trying to explain to our office manager why giving out our old gmail address is a bad idea. We pay for Google Workspace, and right now, what she has been doing is giving out the old gmail address and having that gmail forward EVERYTHING it receives to her new work email address, which has our domain name.

This is bad for security reasons of course, because if we lose access to that email, we can't easily recover it like we can a google workspace account. What are some other reasons? I need a wide variety in order to convince her.
