Their premium email service will be $5.99/mo going forward. The equivalent Exchange Online plan is $4.80/mo in year 1 (or $4 with 12mo commitment), then additional $12/yr for the custom domain i.e. $5.80/mo in year 2 - that's cheaper than Gandi?

When I was preparing to flee free google apps for domains during the recent kerfuffle, the cheapest overall really was Exchange Online (it's a basic email-only option). For a single user and single domain, it's just $56 a year. Next best was proton mail (seems it's a bit cheaper now, $48/yr)

  Zoho Mail seems like a pretty cheap deal. $1.25/user/month 1yr commitment for their 10GB/user email + calendar + contacts support according to the website. It says it can do Exchange ActiveSync and IMAP for connecting. This is currently my target for migrating my few email accounts. I'd love to hear arguments for another service that's cheaper than that for just a few accounts. I don't really want/need all the extra document collaboration tools other services provide and I definitely don't want yet another Google/Microsoft account. https://www.zoho.com/mail/zohomail-pricing.html https://www.zoho.com/mail/zohomail-pricing.html

    That looks good, the thing that was making me lean toward Microsoft is their single email/domain thing lets you make infinite aliases/wildcards.

    iCloud+ 50gb $0.99/month I haven't used it and not sure if it even has a web client, but for the 99c you can use a custom domain according to the ads.

Where did you find pricing? I found the notification about the changes to email a little suspect, it's basically just thrown in as a comment in the middle of the email I got. No info on the product seems to be available, no pricing, no nothing, just it will be available in a month. I'd really hate to move domains and email again, I just moved everything a year ago.

  Damn. Why did you move to Gandi of all places???
  - mrweasel 3y ago
    Because I moved just before things started to go down hill. They were the cheapest, people seemed reasonably happy with their services and they had the features I wanted. My problem was that not only did Google changed my price from free to way to expensive, but my DNS provider closed at the same time, so I needed to migrate both things at the same time. Pretty annoying.

Ah you're correct, I just quickly entered Gandi's email page and saw the 0.35 eur a month price (linked to current "old" service) but didn't go through the linked price-list. That does suck, it's not really a huge amount but a tad much for _just_ email (compared to Google Apps or MS365).
