Oh, neat: https://www.migadu.com/en/drawbacks.html
Huge props to any service that has an honest list of reasons not to use them. I'm a little concerned that one of those things is "no SLA", though; yes, mail delivery is resilient, but if I can't access email all the time I'm gonna be grumpy.

Unlisted disadvantages are that they do not allow sending with "From" other than primary mail address (which limits usage of catch-all domains) and I had to contact them multiple times to get responses.

Beware, Migadu's biggest drawback, which is not listed, is that customer service is non-existent. You contact them about some questions and wouldn't see any responses, not even an auto reply or a ticket. It looks as if it's run by two or three people who have day jobs and other things to take care of and that Migadu is just a hobby project. Email is way too important for me (and I believe for most people), since it's the key to many online services, to let it be served by someone who's not into it full time.
Or if you want to pay for one mailbox somewhere and then have customized forwarding, I found this thing called Forward Email in another thread that looks interesting and I want to try setting it up self-hosted: https://forwardemail.net/#/
