My wish list: 1. iOS native sync, preferable without Active Sync. This includes syncing of read states. 2. Custom domains for families and small business without shelling out $10 per user and month. 3. A shared mailbox within the custom domain as „family“ contact mailbox. At least two people should be able to read it, possibly sync read states AND answer from that address, including sent mails need to be stored in this mailbox. 4. A very simple way to setup the accounts on different systems, especially iOS.

AFAIK, except 4 those are already solved, but not within one provider - without paying those mentioned $10/u/m.

On iOS, at least, you can do this using a `.mobileconfig` profile (which is just an XML plist file). Create that, get your user to access it via HTTP, messages, etc., and iOS will configure the mail account for them. I've used it when family members have lost/forgotten/wiped their details.

Some providers do seem to offer this, e.g. (random example from a search) https://support.mailroute.net/hc/en-us/articles/292348267548...

Last time I checked it wasn‘t possible to configure multiple aliases via this method and it wasn‘t possible to add aliases after adding an account this way.

This is a few years back, so it might have changed.

Fastmail Duo, 8€ Per month for 2 accounts?

I get that subscriptions pile up, but email is the cornerstone of your identity online. Your login and recovery for most services. Getting your mails through requires work these days. I think overall is good value.

Thanks for mentioning that, I must have missed the Duo pricing. It seems the blog post is from April, so at least I‘m not years behind :)

This is really a good price, let‘s see if I get my wife to switch over.
