OnMail - An ultra-fast email service that keeps things simple

Summary

OnMail may not shine with anything exceptional, but when you need a simple email provider that just gets the job done, it’s one of the best options available on the market right now. The service has a free tier that provides you with a good deal of features, though if you want to take full advantage of what it has to offer, you’ll want to upgrade to the premium tier. OnMail’s pricing is relatively good compared to other providers with similar features, making it a solid offer in a market that is starting to get very crowded.

To be honest I was excited when OnMail was launched as invite-only back in April 2020, and immediately I put myself in the waiting list! After waited for several months I was finally able to signup myself an account, however it's not possible to get a username shorter than EIGHT (8) characters unless you pay for their most expensive Professional Plan which is $99/year. But if you're like me and don't mind having a longer username, then the free plan

Tutanota: Easy to use and private by design

Summary

Native cross platform apps available. Paid plans enable custom domains. No third-party email clients are supported, users need to use the wide range of native apps. Based in Germany, founded in 2011.

I started my Tutanota journey 2 years back. Although it has a very simple UI but the strong security it offers means it provides strong competition to ProtonMail (a Switzerland based popular private & secured email provider). Despite the lack of features, I find it fulfill my basic needs for email and generally I do not face any huge issues using it.

Their native apps work as good as their webmail and offers everything you need in an email, such as creating filters, aliases and you can even configure your custom domain -- provided you pay for a plan. They also offers catch-all for all your custom domains that translate to unlimited aliases (however you're limit only to 5 aliases, depending on the plan you subscribed, for sending emails).

Pricing has to be their most attract
