Migadu. Yeah*. On the computer, I use mostly aerc (+notmuch), but hop on Thunderbird once in a while; on mobile I use K-9.

* If you are not looking for totally free options (though their cheapest plan is 20€/y and they give 50% discount to students), and if you don't care about email encryption (which you shouldn't). Migadu has a very good Pros/Cons page, I highly recommend you take a look, even if you're not using or planning to use their service.

I’m also a Migadu user. Nothing but good experiences with them. Simple, solid, and straightforward.

Same. Have multiple domains and mailboxes with them, really solid. The thing I love most is probably the catch all address (allows me to effortlessly create "one-shot" addresses) and the plus-addressing automatic folders (i.e. mails to foo+bar@domain.tld automatically go to folder "bar" in mailbox "foo").

Okay you added an asterisk but I'm not seeing a footnote. Is that a markup typo?

[–] tmpod 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

No no, it was just me being very silly and forgetting to write an important part of my comment .-.
Fixed, thanks!

I am intimately familiar with the concept of forgetting things.

You're cool. :)
