An alternative to Microsoft 365 if you don't need anything other than email hosting is their Exchange Online plan, which is $4/month: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/exchange/excha...

This is what I ended up switching to and it's been working fine so far. I learned from this debacle that tight-coupling email to any other service is a liability, so email-only is actually a feature for me. No GoDaddy requirement either.

I would spent a little more and the the Business Basic plan. I think it is quite a good deal.

I will use that I think. It is a bonus to get some web Office apps in addition.

I thought Outlook.com email was free ? Or is that something completely different or a different class tier that isn’t included in these discussions for whatever reason?

I think this discussion is just about email using your own domain.
