I have heard people having issues with archiving emails using protonmail. Curious to hear of people’s email provider and why?

Archiving emails? I am with Proton and don’t have any issues.

iCloud Mail, because using custom domains and “Hide My Email” aliases are included in iCloud+ which I have anyway (any storage subscription includes access to iCloud+), it’s free and it works fairly well.

But ProtonMail and the likes are obviously way better in terms of privacy, but iCloud Mail works for me.

I’ve been with MXRoute 1 for over a year. It has an amazing reputation, stemming from a relatively strict set of rules. Jarland, the owner, is always on top of things doing maintenance, resolving incidents, and banning spammers and misusers.

I went with the lifetime account and it’s been an absolute boon getting away from Google.

Same. It may lack encryption that many look for, but I have accepted that email is too old to ever be truly secure. Most email is either coming from, or going to services provided by big tech companies anyway. I prefer an open, fully standards compliant email service over a locked down service that provides minimal additional security.

Correct. If one requires encrypted email, one is better off using OpenPGP.
