I don't ever use their webmail, to be honest. I've got native mail clients on my devices that I connect to Fastmail with IMAP. To compare apples to apples it seems most relevant to compare storage tiers, MXroute is 5/month for 20gb, Fastmail's 5/month plan is 25gb (but single-user only).
I personally don't really want to deal with cPanel, too. Not because cPanel isn't cool, but because I explicitly wanted to pay somebody to do the management for me so I didn't have to get too in-the-weeds. I'm certain I'd misconfigure something somewhere and I just don't want to deal with that.
EOD it seems mostly like personal preference and how much you want to tinker. Value for both seem close to the same.
- david-cako 9y agoAh, maybe I have a pretty hot promo deal then, I've got unlimited at mxroute. I've also read mxroute's writeup on why they use cpanel, and apparently it just made sense to use it for user configuration, and that under the hood it's all a very unusual setup (I don't understand enough about email to be honest).
- benbristow 9y agoI used MXRoute for a bit. It's alright but also shite. The search is useless.
