Just use Gmail and if you look carefully at the settings you will find everything you need.

I use Thunderbird. I used Outlook for many years and then my Windows 7Pro OS and Computer became incompatible. It did everything I wanted. I just bought a new Dell W12 desktop from Costco. Also use AOL too as a many year acct that has become burdened with spam and too many Yahoo web mail accounts mostly as semi important accounts. But Yahoo has become difficult to deal with as they have oddly locked me out of several accounts by forcing 2 factor authentication on me where I’ve foolishly used a another Yahoo as a secondary account that I’ve oddly been unexpectedly locked out of.

If anyone has any experience with having Yahoo accounts retrieved, input would be appreciated. One of the problems with free email is you have little leverage in getting tech support. I’ve always kept meticulous records and an Excel file on account ID,, PW and opening relevant info on security questions etc. Maybe Yahoo is purposely looking for methods to prune email accounts

This probably will not be a popular suggestion, but out of laziness, I just keep using Windows Live Mail 2012. It doesn't have a bunch of ads taking up your space on your dektop. It is very easy for me to setup the way that I prefer with folders on the left, menu bar on the top, message headers below that, and the messages below the headers. I also leave the toolbars turned off, and there are no ads wasting space on my desktop.

I am not sure about the latest security, it has not been "supported" by Microsoft since 2017 but this has not been a problem for me. I also have Microsoft Outlook which has more features, but it seems more cumbersome and intrusive.

You install it by going to "Choose the programs you want to install" then uncheck all the options except Mail in Windows Live Essentials.

I use Thunderbird on the desktop and Fairmail on the Android phone. Still connected to Outlook.com but love the privacy and security between both apps.

I just need to get away from Outlook com now!

Brave browser is what I use. I am quite satisfied.

My sister years Reagan.com. It isn’t free, but she likes it.
