Your citation is cut off and doesn’t show why Posteo says it won’t support this..I’m pasting the entire answer from Posteo on this topic [1] here:
> Can I use Posteo with my own domains?
> “No. We are an email provider with a particular, privacy-oriented model – and this is not compatible with incorporating own domains. One of our emphases is data economy: we do not collect any user information (names, addresses, etc) of our customers. We always answer requests from authorities for user information in the negative. On the other hand, own domains need to be registered to the name and address of a person. If you were able to use own domains with us, this would affect the entire concept of Posteo: we would need to start saving user information for all customers who use their own domains with us – and to provide these to the Federal Network Agency to be provided on request to the authorities.
Even if only the MX record pointed to us, we would still need to store the assignment of the domain in your Posteo account as user information. Thus we would possess your user information and be required to give it out. For this reason, we have decided not to offer this possibility and instead to use data economy.”
Whether this sounds fine or not and whether this is acceptable to someone or not is subjective.

- Tomte 3y ago> On the other hand, own domains need to be registered to the name and address of a person. So let the user decide. They can use non-de domains, they can use privacy shielding services. Posteo doesn't need any real name or address to put a domain in their mail configuration. That whole part is just more lies.
