I've been using MXRoute now for over a year, and it suddenly occurred to me just how easy the process has been.

You need to understand some basics around changing DNS records. Ultimately, for $75, I've got a lifetime email server which has been perfect since day zero.

They aren't a hands-on support service, so I wouldn't suggest it unless you are technically leaning. However, I don't think you need to understand a huge amount about emails and networking to get on board and get on well with the service.

As long as you already know how to change DNS records on Cloudflare, you're going to be absolutely fine. I highly recommend them.
