In general, there are several important factors to consider when choosing an email provider: Who is behind the service - is it a big corporation or a small company? Where are their servers located, where is the company registered? *What are the privacy and security features of the account?

It is best to read carefully each provider's terms of service and privacy policies before registration. Be aware that apart from protecting the contents of your email messages with encryption, you should also consider email metadata - that is information about who you send and receive email from, when, how often and the subject line, which is never encrypted.
