Don't have any business use, so not sure if this is of any interest to you.
1. Personal domain, currently hosted with Office 365 but I will probably move after the year is up.
2. Student email (.edu, G Suite). Used for all school business, school-related apps, and some things I haven't bothered to move to #1 yet.
3. Gmail account for spammy/annoying websites and signups.
4. Gmail account used for public records/FOIA requests, nothing else.
5. iCloud account (basically used for nothing except iTunes receipts).
6. ProtonMail account--used for my VPN accounts only.
On my Mac mini and iPhone, I use Apple Mail with 1, 2, and 5 added. On my Windows laptop, I access 1 and 2 through webmail (I have Outlook installed for 1 but rarely use it). Anything else, I just sign in to webmail as needed. I also have access to a few team/shared Gmail/G Suite accounts, I don't have these added to Mail b/c I don't want their unread statuses messing up my unread badges.
Only 1/2 are generally used for IRL stuff or accounts that I care about. I follow inbox zero and turn off email notifications for all but the most important stuff (ex security alerts, receipts, eBay auction results) and email analogs (ex. Canvas messages).
- chdaniel 7y agoYou've given me a lot of info (thanks for that) so I can ask you a question that would usually come "down the line". Especially since you're cross-platform (mac mini, windows, iphone), would you use a web-based email client where, with one login, you can access all these 6? Not in an unified inbox, but have them as separate. Essentially Apple Mail Client but in the browser.
