The list is supposed to include "consumer grade" email domains.
If free or paid is not really relevant.
The name "Freemail" was chosen mainly because the first listed domains were indeed "free".

Yes, it's maintained.  If Xs4all doesn't give out free email addresses,
then it likely does need to get removed.  And thanks for the feedback on
terra!

Hope you are well, nice to see you posting!

Hello,

I was just testing my renewed SPF/DKIM/DMARC setup through some DKIM
testing remailers when I noticed that my domain is on this FREEMAIL_FROM
list.

Now I know that I'm never sending out any spam and the default score for
this rule isn't that high. And since all the mails that are coming from
my (personal) domain are SFP aligned and DKIM signed and thus should
also pass any DMARC check (policy reject) with flying colors, the risc
of my mails actually getting marked as spam isn't very high.

It did however made me wonder if anyone is actually really maintaining
that list. Because just including terra.* as all being FREEMAIL is VERY
general. And the real freemailer 'Terra Mail' closed down quite some
time ago: https://www.mailjet.com/blog/news/terra-mail-closure/
