So I've been using Fastmail with my own domain name for several years now. Fastmail is excellent - simply the best e-mail service I know, but it's also a bit on the pricey side, and I'm not sure if this is worth it any longer for my usage.

Many years back my e-mail was mostly personal correspondence with friends. Nowadays it's just bills, confirmations, notifications and newsletters. These things (well, some of them) need to work reliably, too, but I just don't feel "invested" in e-mail any more and think about switching to a simpler and more affordable service, most likely Posteo.

How has your use of e-mail changed over the years?
