I’ve been using gmail as my email provider for the past couple of years. I also used Yahoo mail in the past. I like the interface that gmail provides.

So, what email provider do you like to use? Do you use gmail, hotmail, yahoo, or a different email provider? Do you have a favorite email provider?
 
I use Gmail for my personal email and I use Dream Host for my server. I could run my own mail server on my server but It's easier to have someone else host it for you. Not only that but you can still get your mail if the server goes down.
 
Gmail and outlook. I cant remember what I needed an outlook address for but I got one too
 
My first one was yahoo that I now use for spam sign-ups, these days I mainly use gmail or outlook. Been thinking of jumping to proton.
 
I am big on gmail. I have a Comcast one that I use a little.
 
I've been on Gmail for many years and I must say that they've got the best features that meant that I had no need to look at alternatives.
 
I have been using Gmail now since it was first released. Aside from my Xbox account which has a Hotmail email, Gmail is my main.

Gmail has been sustainable for me as well. I can be able to enjoy amazing features of using an email account unlike when using others.
 
I use mail.com and gmx.com. Anyway, the first one I use the most and the 2nd is something I have added because the 1st is too full. Anyone with a similar experience?
 
I recently signed up for Titan email for my website, and it's working rather well. I think that I am going to start using it on my other website next month.
 
It's only Gmail I'm making use of right now. Since I get into using their services, I've been satisfied. I've heard ProtonMail is very good in terms of its privacy but I haven't decided to use it.

Gmail is simply the best for me at this moment as well.

Gmail have worked for me so far. I wanted to mess with Hotmail at one point but later decided not to. I'm most likely going to get just one Outlook account.
 
I have never had any problems with making use of Gmail which is the reason why I have continued to patronize their services until further notice.
Apart from the regular issue that Google keeps tracking whatever you are doing when you are making use of their services, I don't think there is any other thing to worry about using Gmail.

That's the only thing I don't like about Google is they track everything that you do. But I never worry because I am never doing anything wrong.

Exactly! I've never really cared about the whole fuss that they are tracking whatever you are doing blah blah blah blah.

I'm not doing anything illegal, so even if they are tracking, there's nothing much for them to see.

I have three different Gmail accounts. I had to create one just due to needing to create a new account for a site once that I lost my previous information to and couldn't get back on. The other two, one is my primary and one is my secondary.

It is very important for you too have things always organized in a way that you wouldn't be getting every mail messed up in one. So, having your emails set up in this way it's a smart idea.
 
Apart from having your mails encrypted, what other perks do you enjoy with using ProtonMail?
I don't even know what ProtonMail is. I just heard about it in this thread. Is it free or is it paid? And what is it about? And do you have a link?

I generally only use hotmail these days, though i do have an old AOL Email address from when i was like 11! Log into it every now and then to keep it active. 😀
 
Oh WOW, AOL I remember when it was popular and everyone had dialup and was on AOL. 56k modem LOL omg how did we survive lol? 😀

Some of my favourite memories are from the early days of AOL using dialup and use AOL instant messenger, it was a great time!

I just set up Postfix on my server and I really had to rack my brains to get it going but it was so worth it. I am really happy that I got it going.

Those days it wasn’t easy to do anything online. Especially if someone called your house phone and you lost internet connection.🤦🏿‍♂️

I was using yahoo mail about some years ago but I lost my login details which I couldn't retrieve, it prompt me to open another account and I decided to check Gmail account and see how they works. And since I started using them, I haven't seen any reason to complain because it's serving me well. I have like 2 different Gmail accounts now though one is for my work and the other is for my personal and school stuffs.

I had the same experience with my first Yahoo mail account which I tried everything possible to retrieve the account but it was not successful. I had to open another Gmail account with the same details I used to open the Yahoo mail account.
