Running a mail server in 2025 so fraught, I'd caution anyone against attempting it. Not sure why you would want that trouble with so many options available, including privacy-focused vendors.

If Proton is not appealing, what about mailbox.org?



Mailbox.org is one of the alternatives that I was looking at.

I’m just surprised that there is a bunch of hosting companies that say “we offer hosting and webmail in one package” but without 2FA. So I was wondering is 2FA so complex that it is not part of entry level hosting services.


2FA isnt complex. But i guess anyone getting their email from their hosting provider isnt very technical and therefore wont use it so why build it.


Yes, this could be it.
