Ask HN: What email service(s) do you use for your side projects?

I have a couple side projects that I use for my friends, family, and myself. I'd like to have both an email such as [email protected] to send and receive emails that I might want to type out. I'd also like to be able to send transactional emails, password reset ... I would think that I'm not the only one with this problem. What do you all use to achieve this?
