Want a private email account?
If you want a private email account with multiple aliases/addresses and basic functionality, contact me. It works well and has basic spam protection. It is nothing fancy. If you want more advanced services, go to a professional email hosting service such as fastmail.com, tuta.com, or proton.me.
Your email account on my server is private in these respects:
- Only you and I can scan your mailbox. Although I technically could, I will not look at your email. You just need to trust me on that. If you want to prevent email host on either side from reading messages, encrypt the messages.
- I also will not reveal your real identity to anyone unless a gun is figuratively put to my head. Please don't abuse and make anyone come after me.
- Other advertising supported hosts such as Google and Yahoo do scan your email and feed it to AI and government agencies to learn about you and serve ads.
- Email metadata (from, to, size, subject, date..) you send between servers is scanned by the NSA and other agencies.
Because the mail server is on a VPS that I rent based on the amount of space and other resources I need, I will give you limited space. If you download your mail to your client such as Thunderbird, you do not need much space. If you want larger space on the server, we can probably work it out.
How to use it
Your account will be <yourid>@peoplever.se. You can create aliases for both sending and receiving. This means you can create new email addresses that will all go to the same mailbox.
- Setup your new aliases in your personal settings.
- If you want to send email from that account, you need to set that up in your mail client such as Nextcloud mail.
