FastMail is ungrandfathering legacy users

5 points by nly 6y ago ↗ HN

I received an e-mail today from FastMail informing me that they would be migrating previously grandfathered Legacy/Family[0] plan users to their new pricing structure.

For me this represents a 30% price rise for a small own-domain deployment with 3 family users, so I will be looking to move to something else.

On a total cost basis it looks like the best thing out there for me right now is Outlook.com, since ProtonMail works out more expensive. I could use G-Suite for free since I have a grandfathered 'Apps for Your Domain' account, but I can't quite face their awful UI and I suspect they will follow suit eventually. I am also considering MxRoute.

Suggestions welcome.
