I’ve recently been trying to degoogle myself, and in doing so I’m going to need another email. I tried ProtonMail, but apparently only business accounts can use SMTP, even though their features claim SMTP access. I’m plenty fine paying for the service, but going from the $6/month to $12/month just to get notification emails from my server doesn’t seem worth it to me. I’ve not looked into what all else comes with Proton’s Business features, but i’m not really running a business or trying to start one up.

What do you use? do you like it? How’s the cost/features?

    Is a Dynamic DNS not an option for you? Most residential plans keep their IP for months if not years, only really changing if the model drops for long periods of time.

      Well there’s small chance someone else could get your mail, also there’s a reputation of given IP + there are blacklists that list dynamic IP ranges and some servers outright block them. And last one, you can’t set your own reverse DNS, which could increase like hood ending up in spam folder.
