I've been using Fastmail for several months now having migrated away from Gmail. I've found it to be very reliable, extremely fast, and just as importantly-it just does what it says on the tin. No gimmicks, ads, or hassle.

The one problem I've faced is my Fastmail email address ending up in the spam folder of friends and family and having to explain to them how to prevent that. I think that may be a leftover from the days when Fastmail offered free accounts. A bit annoying, but definitely not a deal breaker for me.

Do you use your own domain or one of the Fastmail domains?

Not OP but I do both. I pay for a fastmail account and have <myname>@<one of their domains> which all my _personal_ things go to and then I have my business emails all route via their Aliases and certificate pointing.

There have been some instances where both the fastmail domain and my business domain ended up in Spam for the receiver but that is less than a handful of times and I used Fastmail via Nodemailer as a proof of concept for a newsletter service so (ab)used the service without any issue.

I also really like their masked email feature, it's so useful to click and create a throwaway email address to use for different sites and services.

Sounds good. I already have a domain to use just been on the fence about what service to use. Will pull the trigger on Fastmail. Thanks.

I use both, but also pipe in gmail to ensure I don't miss any emails during what inevitably ends up being a long transition process.
