> I'd struggle to suggest a different mail provider than gmail such is there monopoly in that space. Outlook.com is great, I love it more than GMail personally, especially since I can pay a relatively affordable $19/year to get rid of the ads and know that my email provider doesn't have programs scanning every word of every email I send or receive. Privacy is a feature, you don't get that when using Google services.
