Sigh, I have just one problem with Tuta - why such a stupid, stupid name?! I can already imagine myself on the phone saying "yes, T. U. T. A. Tuta dot com"
I sadly agree. It is an odd choice for a name. Tutanota wasn't much better either, their former name. Apparently "tuta" means secure in Latin. However as I am using my own custom domain it doesn't bother me very much personally as it's not a part of my digital identity 😅
Oh! I didn't know it has a latin origin. Then I guess it makes sense but still ...
I got a question about custom domains for email. I know getting trust if you host your own email server is a difficult thing to do. When you use a custom domain on for example tuta, are you piggy backing off of their trust as a email server, or do you run into the same issue?
You use their servers and IPS. You're just pointing your DNS to their stuff.
Much easier and more trustworthy than running your own, like you said.
Right, that makes it a bit easier to go that route. Now I just need to secure a decent domain name that's easy to spell out over the phone ^^
It really is. Could've been worse, like having some "I love Tuta" stickers. smh
TIL: they used to be called Tutanota. The word “Tuta” comes from Latin, which roughly translates into “Safe”. This acts as a nice successor to what “Tutanota” meant in Latin, which was “Secure Note”.
How about some pcloud in these trying times?
Don't get me started! In Romanian 'tuta' is a designation for a very stupid woman! 🤷♂️
I don't know if keemailme is better but that's another option from them.
Yeah good point. If tuta is a big throw off they do offer:
