I've been quite happy with MXroute. I've only once had an IP blocking problem with them, with a friend who hosts using Migadu. It was cleared up in under a day.

"Opinionated" is a very good word for them, though. I think Jarland Donnell is legitimately passionate about running a good email services, and has strong opinions about what that means. In my experience, it's meant something no-nonsense, with good technical transparency, that delivers exactly what it promises and nothing more. Perfect for my needs.

Honestly if it wasn't for the spam filtering I may we'll have stayed with them. I did configure Thunderbird's spam filtering and it did bridge the gap quite well but it wasn't ideal to have to sit it up and train it on multiple machines and then have less filtering on mobile when my computer was off. It also had some poor interactions such as setting the unread count for my spamd folder which I find very annoying because the message was moved there.
