What European email services do you use?

Please recommend other interesting email services by your experience.

I have switched from Google’s Gmail to ProtonMail and kMail. I really like both, kMail (by Infomaniak) have very similar app interface to Gmail so you will get used to it very fast and also have big storage for free and very good offers for paid plans 👍🏼

    mailbox.org has a web app, so no need for a client app.
    And Posteo also supports POP3, IMAP and SMTP, so you can use every mail client with support for it.

      I’m in the US and wanted to switch from Gmail to a privacy focused European email provider, so I paid for a year of Posteo and so far I’ve been really happy with it. The service is excellent, it’s inexpensive and their ethics/values as an organization are wonderful.

        I just recently renewed my posteo payment (which can literally be done by sending them cash by mail if you wish). It really just works. Using Thunderbird on PC and Thunderbird + DAVx⁵ on my phone.

        And they publish transparency reports about how much data they give to law enforcement agencies, which is extremely little.

        Back then I was deciding between Posteo and mailbox.
        I choose mailbox because, at least at the time, they had unlimited calendars and Posteo only offered 3 free ones.
        Also the website of mailbox seemed more respectable / unspectacular / boring than Posteo. Posteos website got me some typical start-up vibes, means hoping for fast growth and quick exit. But there I guess I was wrong.
