The Website/Email Saga Continues

HELP!

I’ve been dealing with migrating my website from godaddy to BookBub.

I still have to work on that part, but feel confident it will go through.

My question is about the email. I have a domain email info at joroland dot com currently and its with microsoft outlook/365 whatever. they said i could keep it and so i paid for 3 years up front. that was after they guaranteed it would work with BookBub.

Technically it will work with bookbub, but when i send newsletters my readers will no longer be able to hit reply and respond to me like they can now. I dislike that very much because i get so many responses that way. BB said it will be noreply at joroland dot com.

BB said I need an email account with a service provider who supports custom domains, but I thought I already had that with Microsoft. They did suggest that google workspace, Zoho, and Fastmail would be different, but I don’t understand why that would be. And honestly adding ANOTHER company into this mess is daunting.

The only reason (outside of cost of the website since I’m saving $100) that I’m even doing this is because GoDaddy can’t send reader magnets when someone signs up for my newsletter.

Honestly, I’m so confused by all of this and really need someone to help me. Where would I go to find that person? This is so not my wheelhouse and I need to figure it our before Wednesday. I’ve tried youtube but either I’m searching for the wrong things or what I need doesn’t exist (which i find hard to believe)

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thank you!
