Came to the same conclusion myself. The only “safe” email host is the one you run yourself or pay for with actual dollars, not data. The hard part is taking your second paragraph to action. Most people are not ready for that conversation because the major freemail providers have been in service for such a long time that most people really can’t grasp the concept that email is something you have to pay for. I really blame a lot of that on Google from the very beginning. Gmail, and essentially all free mail providers, are what they are today because of the precedent Google set and the only way companies were going to be able to compete with that was to also make their email services free.
