What email services do you use (2021 edition)?

I read this forum and lots of times I wonder what each user has as their "main" email service.

So, I'll start:
  1. Purelymail
  2. Outlook (free)
  3. OnMail (free)
  4. ProtonMail (free)
  5. Tutanota (free)

1> Fastmail (paid)
2> Proton Mail (paid)
3> my ISP email account (paid..)
4> my webhosts' email account (free, because I used to be a moderator on their forum, when they had one..)

I have two domains. One goes directly to #1, the other goes directly to #2. I also use the service SpamGourmet to generate email addresses.

1. Fastmail - paid - for about half of my emails.

2. A&A - paid - (an ISP in London, though not my ISP), who host two domains for me. About half my emails go through there.

3. I've got email facilities available, though I'm not using them, via a third [web-hosting] company (paid)

4. I've got a yahoo id, but - for years - it's just been used for groups there. As the groups concerned have gone elsewhere it's not getting much use. However I do send test mails there every few months and login and check they arrived.


I do not use any of the extra facilities - email, webspace etc - provided by the company who provide my broadband connection. Long ago, before spam became a big problem, I used ISP-provided email addresses and it took a lot of effort, over more than a year, to migrate away from them when their service became unusable. Never again.

I experiment a lot, but at the moment:

1. Gmail as my main email handler, with my domain email as my main address used for most things forwarded from my domain registrar, using Google SMTP to send. I have several Gmail accounts for various things. Best spam/junk filtering and search, which would be hard to give up since it is the archive of all my email back to 2006.
2. Purelymail for some domain email
3. Fastmail is on hold at the moment after a bad customer service experience. Debating whether or not to use it.
4. Outlook.com for backup email use and I have lots of legacy storage in OneDrive so use that for archiving various things.
5. Microsoft 365 for business email
6. Google Workspace for other business things, though not using the email function at the moment.

Yes, first I doubt too.

But later on, I am really happy with it.

I have few domains and some users on it.

The web interface is too easy and in India, $ 1.5 month, giving a complete suite with 30 GB space.

Never faced any SPAM issue with them.

One thing, In admin they have 24 hrs chat support.

(Earlier, All these domains were with Fastmail, now with Zoho)

When I want to write an important email, the only choice in my thought is Gmail.
