After being very disappointed by Yahoo's bully way of making their users choose the "new" version where they can screen all your e-mail content, etc. (making you even more transparent for the government) I decided to look further and choose another provider.
RUNBOX was the best one that I've found and I'm very happy that I took that decision. All my e-mails have now been transferred over from Yahoo, and I'm gonna delete and cancel my account with Yahoo.
I trust this company way more than any other provider in the US.

I've been a Runbox user and fan since 1996. With all of the free email offers out there, why do I use a paid service? One main reason is that if something goes sideways (twice in ten years, nothing lost), they're responsive and responsible. My email, files, etc. are securely backed up. If something goes wrong with your free service...they owe you zip.
Another reason is that Runbox is a Norwegian company, and complies with European data security laws...not our weakened U.S. laws. Plus, there are no ads, they support any email client, webmail access, secure access, messages up to 100 mb, email aliases, email consolidation, you can use any "reply-to" or "from" address, and I can store 10 gb (or more for extra) of email. Plus, each account comes standard with a gb of file storage.
Another reason is that Runbox keeps improving the service. They just added web hosting, including 200 MB storage and 4 000 MB data transfer per month.
Plus, they have a referral program so that you can earn some money for referring people. I've never taken advantage of that particular benefit, but if you wanna sign up, message me and I'll be happy to send you the link!
It's $50/year, but it's worth it when you consider you'd pay more than that just for the web hosting. I leave all my email online so that in case of disaster, I've got access to all of it. And thanks to European privacy laws, I sleep better at night.
