Hard to beat Gmail if only for their excellent 2FA. 2FA sms is invaluable to me and it should be to you too. Nothing worse than getting your email or exchange accounts hacked when you are dabbling with btc and altcoins.
Find me another email service with 2FA as good as Gmail's.
Topic: Best email provider? - page 6. (Read 6465 times)
Create an anonymous email using tor in gmail how would they know it was you? Or better start using bit message.
Is there any email provider now that is based on tor? I saw some before but I havent tried it.
There was once tormail but that had a problematic faith, it was hosted on a server that also hosted kiddy porn sites so it was attacked by the FBI.
Due to the way email works running an email server on a Tor hidden service is pointless as the IP of the server or a gateway server has to be known in order to receive email.
You can use Tor with almost any email provider including gmail.

IMO gmail is the best. Google has proven to be very reliable, very innovative and has a corporate motto of "do no evil"
They openly admit that automated systems read your emails looking for keywords so they can target ads to you. Additionally there is the whole NSA having access to their stored data fiasco.
There are also some scary stories:

Buy a domain, buy a offshore vps or offshore hosting or use a spare pc in your home and become the email provider yourself.
If you buy a VPS, you need to trust the company hosting it.
I would NEVER trust anyone other than me to handle my privacy and neither should you, you should always use PGP to encrypt private emails and do the encryption on your PC (not using your providers server-side tools).
The email provider I use is https://unseen.is
They are based out of and hosted in Iceland and are OK although they lack the functionality of using "+" aliases in email addresses. I PGP encrypt anything sensitive so I do not need to trust them - the main driving factor behind choosing them was the cool domain...
For now, gmail is sufficient. Google could turn out to be extremely evil and snoopative (is that a word?) but for now they will do. Gmail is a great service.

None are safe really unless you encrypt all your messages. Maybe some tor email services may be safer.
You are an idiot.
Agreed. If you don't care about privacy do you mind if people watch whilst you have a shower? Or maybe youre a voyeur and are into that sort of stuff.
Privacy is only needed for crook and people who deem important enough. Most users don't fit into this category.

I thought as much gmail is probably the best option and is probably the most stable without much downtime. I've tried outlook but didn't get on with that.
So when you where said "safer" what exactly did you have in mind? Better protection from hacks or better protection of your privacy?
you can try this one.
http://www.mail.com
you can choose domain that you want like : @lawyer, @post, @asia, @architech etc.
