> Find another mail host.

Have you, or someone else, a suggestion for one alternative for Gmail?

I have been used mutt + offlineimap + msmtp for a long years (before I have
been used Sylpheed). Both, offlineimap and msmtp, can use OAUTH2. The
problem remains that day by day the token expires and a new one is needed,
and this process can be done by hand.

I tend towards smaller, but established local providers.

For example, around here, in Germany we have posteo.de or mailbox.org. They
do cost something (1 EUR/month), but they value your privacy (f. ex. you can
pay cash for posteo, they only know your mail address).

IMAP, SMTP, some also offer extras like Nextcloud (e.g. mailbox), no fuss.

Look around you, I'm sure you'll find similar offers. They don't make that
much noise (they aren't a propaganda company, as Google is, after all) and
tend to invest the money they take from you into people doing their jobs.

Cheers

Hi, I am not affiliated with any of the following, but I use them:

https://riseup.net/ is global U.S. based, with a free option, and they 
claim to care about user privacy (I only say "claim" because I didn't 
audit them).

https://protonmail.com/  There's a limited free option, it is global and 
operates under Swiss laws. Cares about user privacy to a great extent 
(no logs, user encrypted inbox, onion site access possible...). Only 
caveats I am aware of is that they can be compelled to reveal user IP 
address by Swiss laws (it happened once at the request of the French 
government), so if you care about that use a vpn or TOR to access your 
mails I guess. The paid options are solid professional options.

I still use gmail for public lists and general junk subscriptions, 
Thunderbird handles oauth2 nicely.

Thank you! Look at posteo and mailbox plans.

I have been looked at protonMail.com. What I need is IMAP and SMTP for
offline uses. I plan to continue use offlineimap + msmtp + mutt for a
long time. GMail offers this, but, after OAuth2 implementation, token
expires day by day. It's annoying.

Thank you!

I wonder if anyone knows if there's a set-up which would work with 
Alpine?

I am willing to switch to Mutt if need be but it would be nice if I 
could continue in my old ways, more rather than less.

I use pobox.com .  My wife uses the email service that comes with our
Web site on Gandi.  Both are quite satisfactory.

Unlike some others I don't consider Google "evil".  They're just an
advertising agency.  I do, however, find it baffling that people use the
email service that they give away as a promotional gimmick for anything
important.

the university uses 'Google Apps for Education'. no problems.

I read this list through plain google. also I do some commercial communication with it.

no advertisements I can connect with using it. there is spam but all 
of it is wholly unrelated to anything I am doing.

I use Alpine though as mail client, the web-interface I use for 
searches or to more easily grab URL's I want.

(maybe I reveal too much?!)

I came across Disroot (disroot.org) the other day. Looks interesting
and worth considering.

I've been using disroot for some time now for personal email (work is
Exchange unfortunately with 2FA which I access by using davmail).
Disroot works very well for me and comes with nextcloud as well which is
useful.
