I use runbox. It costs money, but is affordable. They also take privacy and security seriously, and they take steps to help the environment when possible.
First runbox user I've seen in the wild. +1 for runbox, it has worked great for in the last ~6 years or so.
The 100 aliases you get are very useful. The fact it costs money may be a turn off for many, but I'd personally wouldn't trust a privacy statement from a closed source free service.
Keep in mind that runbox 7 is the only Foss option. The other one is proprietary
How do you think it compares to Posteo? I mainly chose them because environmental awareness, privacy consciousness and usage of libre software.
I don't know since I've never used them personally
