Does it come with SMTP?

  I think so, yes, see here: https://docs.hetzner.com/konsoleh/account-management/email/setting-up-an-email-account/ https://docs.hetzner.com/konsoleh/account-management/email/s...

  what does that even mean? (i.e. how would an email service work w/o smtp)

    Some hosts block port 25 (SMTP) and you have to use another server to send emails.

Don't the big players penalize mail coming from hosts without ipv4?

  > Don't the big players penalize mail coming from hosts? Ftfy. :) Yes, they do, unfortunately. I am still hoping for some regulation / fine to put an end to this.

    Me too! You're in for a lot of pain, especially in the beginning, when trying to host your own mail server. Big players just dropping mails (Microsoft), local authorities refusing your mails (even on the postmaster inbox) and if your mail goes through it might still go straight to the spam folder. Granted, I'm using an .xyz domain, but I'm not sure how big of a role this really plays. Interestingly I didn't have problems with Google's mail servers so far.

      I remember hearing that Google really downgrades the search rankings of .xyz domains. Not sure how it goes for email though.

  I've not yet found this to be an issue with personal mails. If you're planning on setting up whatever system that needs to send _lots_ of mails, something else might be better indeed.

You can: buy a cheap 4€/year domain at OVH and you'll get your own mail with their free 10M web hosting plan.
- martin_a 5y ago
  That's cheaper indeed. I would hold against that the 24 €/year from Hetzner get you 10 GB of space for whatever. Personal website, small NextCloud, something like that. I think it's a good deal with a well known hoster.

  Thats just a single inbox and no aliasses, right?
