Alternative mail providers (was: Google Gmail mailing list bounces)

[Amin Bandali]

Thanking Eli, Bob, and everyone else volunteering their time to ensure a
smooth experience for users of lists.gnu.org, it may not be a bad time
to encourage people to move off of the few giant providers (which among
other things, continuously make things more difficult for everyone else)
and to try and run their own mail server for themselves and their family
and friends, or consider using smaller and less-hostile alternatives.

Examples of “small” community-based projects include disroot.org,
weho.st, and teknik.io.  Other providers worth looking into may be
Tutanota, ProtonMail, or FastMail.  Ultimately, though, I’d recommend
running your own if you can.  Container-based solutions like Mailu [1]
or mailcow [2] with sane defaults could be very decent starting points.
