Hi All,
I would like to choose a new email provider, where security and privacy of the email is one of my main concerns (nothing to hide, but want to keep my data private, differently than what happens with the major providers). I have read maaany posts and websites guides but I am still confused. I am happy to pay a euro or so /month, so I had reduced my choice to Mailbox, Posteo, Mailfence. The problem is that each of them has some flows that don’t let me go ahead with them!
Mailbox: uses PGP, so not straightforward to send encrypted emails (unlike with tutanota) and to have encryption at rest. No mobile app. Alias reuse after 90 days Posteo: no spam folder. ALias reuse after 24 months Mailfence : has no encryption at rest , no mobile app. Not sure about alias reuse

Have you got any comments on the above providers and /or other suggestions (except for Tutanota and Protonmail)? thank you, appreciated!

    I like Proton Mail. It does have a free tier, but the paid tier is pricier than you suggested in your post.

      The free tier is only 500mb, but I’ve been using it as my primary email for a year and with spam management I’m only at 100mb.

        You wrote that 500mb is too small tho. 500mb are enough for me as well for mails.

          If I wasn’t deleting unnecessary emails, that would run out in about 24 months.

            Well, it’s always a good idea to delete unnecessary mails and junk mails
