For a while now I have been looking for email providers that are transparent and meet EFF standards, and in fact, I went to the EFF website to see if there was an article about email providers, but found nothing, the only decent providers I could find on my own, have been tutanota and cock.li, I am currently using tutanota and was planning to move everything to cock. li, but unfortunately it hasn’t been going through its best moment, I would stay with tutanota if it wasn’t for one thing, and that is that it can’t be used inside thunderbird, there is a plugin that allows you to open a window with tutanota, but that’s not the idea, ideally you would be able to add your email address without any external plugin, and that is why I am asking for recommendations that meet the standards mentioned above, but that is also compatible with thunderbird to be able to save the emails locally, any client can download the emails to be able to have them locally, but that is the one I use personally.
Posteo is pretty great
i got on posteo recently, it’s great. sometimes the webmail feels a little archaic but it’s probably for good reasons and keeps costs down. every setting i could want is exposed and their guides are really good.
The webmail is just Roundcube with a skin and some Posteo-specific modifications. I quite like it, as it does its job without relying on 24 different JS frameworks and turning my laptop into a hotplate.
It’s also LibreJS compliant, which is nice.
