Please read the cited FAQ entry again:

> On the other hand, own domains need to be registered to the name and address of a person. If you were able to use own domains with us, this would affect the entire concept of Posteo: we would need to start saving user information for all customers who use their own domains with us – and to provide these to the Federal Network Agency to be provided on request to the authorities.

Do you have any store/other brand recommendations?

Which Mail provider are you currently using?

I am also German and currently checking out solutions for moving my mail, calender, etc. off of outlook. A major requirement for me is to manage different E-Mail addresses and send via different SMTP servers.

1&1 Hosted Exchange looks quite nice, but 9,99€ isn't that cheap, and there is no tryout unfortunately and afaik does Exchange lack an alias-Feature (+ send via another SMTP, so it gets send without "on behalf of...").

Re:You know, Google, the web already had this feature on Friday April 12, 2013 @04:38AM (#5537284)
One example would be Calendar. First they announce that they retire EAS for CalDav. A few month later they announce that CalDAV will be deprecated and only available for selected developers and other services should use the proprietary Google calendar API.

Which is kinda sad as Google could have really improved CalDAV with their move. Now it is back to "walled garden".
