I'm using Yahoo Mail, Gmail and ProtonMail. Yahoo Mail is still my main email provider (for almost a decade) although I'm drowning in spam. :D
You my friend are a very brave Lion with all the issues Yahoo is having now with Security.
ProtonMail is an awesome choice, you have the worst and the best. I would dump Yahoo like a bad habit if I were you. jmho

I utilize ProtonMail as my main and have done away with the rest.
I had an early heads up about ProtonMail and was honored to help Beta test
There are a few things that Gmail and Outlook mail are required for other than that
I strictly use the top Encrypted Email service on the planet :)

Only problem with that is you have to change your email on every account you have, lol. It's a pain, as someone that has done it like ten times.

There are tools for this, I did it gradually over time seeing I got in early while it was still an early beta. I added a "Reply To" to all my Gmail and MS email messages, then came game clients last.
Privacy and security are worth the effort to me hands down my brother.

Main e-mail adress is hotmail. Why? Because I created it back in the day and I still use it till now. Hotmail was very popular then.
Junk email is a gmail.
Hi kev :)
you may have a Hotmail address but its a live acct now, I hate that MS did that I too "back in the day" had a Hotmail acct and thought that was the coolest name ever.
I think if you started with a Hotmail acct you can still use the "@hotmail.com" extension cant you ?
 
I have several accounts but frequently I'm using only 3 or 4 email adresses.
Some of them i created already some years ago and i use them not very often/don't use them anymore....
Protonmail account is very safe so thats why i created an account (good to have
one safe adress), yandex mail has also a very good reputation....

frequently i'm using:
gmail.com (de)
web.de
t-online.de ("email.t-online.de")

brand new accounts:
mail.yandex.com
protonmail.com

"old" accounts:
freenet.de
gmx.de
arcor.de
yahoo.com (de)

Yes you are right. My email adress still ends with "@hotmail.be" (the .be makes it even more special ;)). If I remember well, you could change it to "@outlook.com", but that might be confusing for people that know my email adress already. And althoug hotmail is abandoned now and changed to outlook, it still works without problems.
