So it is a website with a long history and it will not be like those upstarts that run away in a couple of days.

In general, I would say you will want to look at one of the trusted bigger fully encrypted end-to-end services, like Proton and Tuta. I would choose Proton just for their feature set and apparent reliability.

https://tuta.com/

You can use PGP anywhere, I mean with any email service. Some services provide PGP or some other type of encryption, but PGP can also be 'provided' by oneself. pgp or gnupg at DuckDuckGo

If everyone used PGP or GPG before, they (proton, tuta, ...) would not be born.
