Privacy might be a parameter.

>>57597655
it might be. any number of other parameters might be important.

if the OP is asking this question without knowing or apparently caring to specify any of these parameters, the best answer is the simplest one: gmail.

don't overcomplicate things.

cock.li

Sorry, the above comment was by me, the OP. Privacy is indeed a concern.

E-mail is a compromised service by definition, use it minimally

Quick question. Should I use distinct email addresses for different sites?

If your mail provider supports plus notation ([email protected]) and their registration form doesn't reject this as an invalid character for email addresses, I would strongly suggest doing so. If you suddenly receive spam for one of these suffixed addresses, you can filter them easily.

Otherwise, with a mail domain and server of your own, you may have as many mailboxes as you want. Or as many as your mail provider supports, if you buy the latter part from an established mail service.
