First of all I would like to show you providers for one-time emails. You need them, if you want to read news behind a paywall (Sometimes you get some free articles for registration). First you have to register with an email and to click on an URI inside the mail to proof, that it’s your email address. The following email services will give you only temporally active email addresses and they will be deleted after some time. You avoid spam if you use them.
The first rule in Internet business is: Nothing is for free! It’s only free for a little fee. You pay with your private information. This information will be monitored and sold – it’s called big data.
The following email providers offer you an email address for free. They respect your privacy. There are nevertheless costs for server and administration. Think about whether you can of donating something to the providers. The listed providers are free of charge and you don’t pay with your private data. Some of them have also payed services with more features. The storage listed is for the free email service.
In the analogue age, people prayed to those false gods for carrying their mail safely.

What else do you need?
- A free and open source email client like Thunderbird.
- TorBirdy to hide your IP. This means that less metadata is generated.
- Enigmail for encryption.
- WebPG for encryption via WEB interface. Mailvelope has the same functionality as WebPG but is compatible for Firefox 57+ Quantum.
