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.
