Hi to all,

Curious how using Outlook/Hotmail email stacks up against the Security conscious providers that are out there nowadays?

I use an outlook address for my main communication, an alias of it for two fairly successful home businesses and have really not experienced any major issues in the last few years.

I use a subdomain of a website provider for business and it seems to work fine.
(I do own a couple of domain names but have been too busy/sidetracked to fully implement them)

I've toyed around with a few of the other providers (Mailbox.com, Fastmail, Runbox) but always end up going back to Outlook.com.

With all the talk of hacking/identity theft etc nowadays are these smaller services markedly better or is it simply in the eyes of the beholder?
