Exactly. 90% of just US market doesnt understand how to run their own domain let alone setup a linux mail-server. Appreciate the feedback on the $50/year. We will see what the market will bear. Does fastmail offer cloud storage included in the $50? I used to use them way back in 2013 but have been running my own mailserver for 6 years now, so I need to update the competitor landscape a bit. I garuntee with Fastmail you dont get the same level of one-on-one support you get with this ;)

All Fastmail plans include cloud storage. Can't compare more specifics, since you don't even mention how much storage you offer.

> Does fastmail offer cloud storage included in the $50? I don't use it, but yes. $50/year right now corresponds to the standard plan which gives you 10GB of file storage. That's detailed here: https://www.fastmail.com/help/account/limits.html https://www.fastmail.com/help/account/limits.html > I garuntee with Fastmail you dont get the same level of one-on-one support you get with this ;) I had an issue once where I moved some 800 or so of the emails I had in my Inbox to separate folders in my computer's Maildir and when I synched it via IMAP (by using the MRA isync/mbsync) it caused the dates of all of them to change in their web-client to the moment I did the move. Moving emails and synching like I did is probably a very unusual thing for customers to do. Someone in customer support ran a script (and maybe wrote it too, considering this seems like an unusual problem) to fix the dates and explained what happened to me in enough technical detail for me to figure out how to avoid this happening again next time I do something like this with IMAP. It only took 2 days to resolve the issue. I consider their support to be pretty good. :)
