Hi all,
I have had several shots at self hosting email over the years and my last attempt failed due to my home IP being in a dynamic pool. I thought I might try again, this time with a basic web hosting provider that I could set up email on. Any suggestions for a free/cheap provider with decent uptime?
Thanks

Check out MXRoute.
You need to be a technical enough to manage domains and panel management (but not as involved as self-hosting).
They have decent support documents and responsive support.
They frequently have promotion for lifetime, multi domains, multi accounts (limited only by 10GB in storage size) email hosting.
I got mine in 2021 with 125 USD (one time payment). Hosted my work and family emails. During the period I only have 1 issue related to spam fighting and resolved with 1 day. With previous hosting price, MXRoute is already more cost effective after 1 year.
Email is too important to do on the cheap.
Chances are, all the cheap hosts have had their reputations trashed by spammers and are on blacklists.
