Safest Email Provider? [+Rep]

[Mint]

Not sure if this is the right place for this or if the information is already somewhere on the forum, if it is, please could you direct me to it and close this thread. ;)

Now I have wiped my C: drive and my PC is spyware/virus free it is time to create new accounts. So I was wondering which email provider to use. Googlemail/Yahoomail or hotmail? Or I can use the btinternet yahoo that come with the internet we bought for the house. +rep will be given to all posts that contain any helpfull advice!

Thanks! :)

Hotmails are getting reverted all the time so i'd stay clear of them.

I was always going to keep away from hotmails but just thought I would add it to make it more of a comparison, but thanks anyway. +rep ;)

Your own cPanel email would be the safest but I'd go for GoogleMail or something such as http://www.ymail.com (also instant emails)

I've found ymail pretty good lately.

I've never had a problem with Hotmail.

Custom domain emails suck as it gets flooded with porn/viagra adverts :rolleyes:

I used to use http://www.fastmail.fm/ which was pretty good :)

I would say try to go for an obscure email provider, and like use fake details (such as like, Location: Greenland and Secret Q: Favourite Pet - A: Deal or No Deal)

I still use Hotmail for my main account, because I personally prefer it :)

I suggest GMail. :)

I use Hotmail and it's okay besides a few hiccups where I got hacked but that was on my own fault. Just make sure your secret answer isn't anything to do with the question but you can get remember it and that your password is really random like ch3353 or something, so it isn't like cheese and they can get onto it. Gmail is good also.

www.googlemail.com

awesomnessness in my opinion.

I also used Yahoo! Mail, which is quite good, but I prefer goodmail.

I've synced both with Mozilla Thunderbird, much like outlook but with all of Mozilla's products, compared to Microsoft, it is very secure, fast and user freindly.

Hope i've helped =]

Hotmail - stay away
Google mail - is good and safe, but is widely used so there is more chance of a security risk being discovered.
mail.com - got some good emails that you can choose from (you can get emails like [email protected] to [email protected] haha)

YMail (Yahoo Mail) is the safest in my opinion., I personally use YMail email for my habbo/important stuff.

GMail comes after.

[Trigs]

gmail for sure.

super hard to revert.

www.hushmail.com

[Jack.Lfc]

Agree with most use googlemail.

[Sunny.]

yahoo is the safest

Gmail's can be hacked - tho it takes longer.
Hotmails are v easy 2 revert especially with all the little kiddies reverting now.
The others like fastmail and other email providers, ive not tried
and custom domain ones are good but really, if your hosting goes down, so does ur email ;l

AOL is very safe.
