When advalvas.be and ilse.nl were still around (which was like 20 years ago) they also gave me the impression they wanted to provide you an email address that you could keep for the rest of your life, not for the duration of the email service's life. Maybe I misinterpretated their slogan, but anyways both services disappeared not too long after I signed up.
I think the only players that you can be sure they won't disappear in the forseeable future are the big players, sadly enough other smaller services don't have the financial guarantees that Microsoft or Google have. So if you really insist you never want to change email address again, then I would advise to stick to Hotmail/Outlook or Gmail. Maybe Yahoo could be an option too.
