    I keep two addresses; an ancient one on Yahoo and a more current one on Gmail. Every so often, I search for another free email provider to use. A friend had recommended gmx.com to me. I use it from time to time (usually when I want information from banks and don't want to deal with solicitation).
    Has anyone found a free email provider that works well ?

    There's no such thing as a free lunch. Either it's advertising, or collecting your personal data, or both. Paid services can be a better way, if you can afford it. Otherwise it's always a compromise.

    Same...

    One for personal

    2nd for professional and business

    3rd for anonymous stuff that does not have my real name attached to it, so I don't leave behind an obvious paper trail
