I’m trying to move away from Google and replace my Gmail account. But reading about the different options, I’m realizing I don’t really understand email at all - e.g. the difference between the client and the domain name, the different protocols, encryption.
Does anyone have articles or books to suggest as a “Basics of Email: 101”? Thank you!
No problem, and yes, that’s correct - once you have your own domain then you can hop between providers a lot more easily as you don’t need to change a thousand web accounts when you do. It’s also useful if you move into self-hosting in the future.
