Suggestions for long term email service…

[sjmjax]

Getting ready to pull the plug on a legacy phone company that has provided my primary email address for decades.

Looking for suggestions for a good, free, long term alternative.

Appreciate your suggestions.

I've been happy with Protonmail. I've been trying to minimize my Google use.

I have five separate Gmail accounts, never a problem with any of them...Among other benefits I make extensive use of the blog attachments...No charge for those either......Ben

I switched to @GMAIL.COM from our phone provider five years ago and never looked back. Works great!

I have a gmail account that I use for most email along with a gmx account and one on my son's personal domain (hosted by gmail for business) that I use only for close friends and family so that it won't get spammed. Had the gmail for many years since our cable company dumped its email service.

I'm another Protonmail user. They have both free & subscription accounts. I like the privacy features. Worth at least checking them out.

Regarding Google, as the saying goes: You're Not the Customer; You're the Product.

Switched from AOL to Gmail in 2014 and very pleased. Gmail seems to weed out much of the scams and junk email.

I like gmail because all my phone contacts are stored in it.

Would come in handy if you lost your phone. Version probably has then too?

You can't continue using your current address? I use both GMail and Yahoo, have used both for many years. No problems/preferences with either. Also have an iCloud address that I seldom use.

I've used my cfl.rr.com email for years. A while back I could log unto the forum, but couldn't post or reply to anything. Even thou I'd been getting notifications from this forum, it claimed I hadn't been. Only way to get things straightened out was to change my email address.

As am I…since inception.

I also have a Gmail account but it's mostly a secondary for me.

I also had to switch to gmail since my last system went out of service....
So far, pretty good.

Been using Gmail for years. Works fine and it does good at stopping spam from getting through.

Have had Gmail for years. Never used any of the ones that the internet providers gave me.

Internet providers change, Gmail stays the same
