What is, from your point of view, the best Mailbox provider?

I personally am okay with Hotmail, but M$ wants (like every other company) too much data.

@eclipse.cx

Unfortunately for you, you need to be at least a moderator to get an @eclipse.cx email.

I would then suggest cock.li, but they closed registrations.

I would then suggest riseup, but you need a invitation for that.

So currently, you're kinda fucked.

thats some nice self advertising right there.
I have thought about SAFe-Mail being a viable option, but their services are just laughable compared to todays standards.
They offer you 3 MB Storage for free accounts and a monthly 5$ subscription for 10 MB.

Gmail and Outlook work well

. If you own a domain you could also set up your own email system.

Gmail and Outlook are owned by Google and Microsoft. There's your problem.

gmx.co.uk offer POP3/IMAP support, up to ten alias addresses, etc. - you can also get a fancier domain over at mail.com, though POP3/IMAP support is disabled and 'premium' options seem to only be available to US customers.

Only issue I had with them is that their spam filter is ridiculously aggressive and sending/receiving can be rejected by other servers to a GMX box, similarly to a Yandex mailbox. phpBB boards in particular seem to drop any form of activation message to a GMX mailbox.

Mozilla's Thunderbird if you count CLIENTS but mail.com if you are talking about SERVICES

There's a reason Google, Microsoft, etc. are all free. It's because you're the product. They're harvesting your information. If you want an email provider who doesn't, either set up a mail server yourself (probably the best idea) or find a privacy oriented provider that'll probably charge you.

cock.li was the best
Next best thing is protonmail which is most likely a honeypot. So really idk, everything sucks.
When i finally managed to switch to cock.li i was really starting to think i should just nuke everything, i'm sick of all the privacy invasive crap, i'd rather just not deal with it anymore.

So try protonmail (free version of course) and get your impressions here, please
