Business email was a bit harder.
@Fastmail was my choice, first of all because of this blog post and the nice story behind the product. However, Hey also is coming up with business mail so it's an option too.https://usefathom.com/blog/fastmail1 réponse 0 Retweet 0 j'aimeAfficher cette discussion -

Also this process took MONTHS. Just discovering those accounts where I logged in with google (for personal and business mails).
