Posteo is great for business. It's a professional and competent company that respects your privacy to a good degree, and has a clue about security. In a sense it's MORE professional than trying to DIY, unless you really know what you're doing. I would feel encouraged to see a business use Posteo when I receive the email. It tells me that your business probably cares a little about security and/or privacy and possibly the environment too. Total kudos for using Posteo from me.
What I think is completely unprofessional is to use your ISP's address for business email. The number one unprofessional business move, in my opinion, is to have your business website on Facebook/Meta, Twitter or any other enshitified corporate social media site. You won't get my business. I'll go anywhere else no matter how inconvenient.
Any idea if Posteo allows their service with your own domain?
Last time I looked it didn't -https://posteo.de/en/site/faq. However, Tuta does - https://tuta.com/blog/posts/own-domain-email. To refocus on OP's question, I would be happy to get a "professional business email" from a Posteo address.
