In their own words

Disroot Email

Disroot Email provides free email accounts through webmail and desktop or mobile email clients. Its Roundcube webmail includes threaded messages, filters, folders, attachment previews, and MIME and HTML support. Mail clients can connect using IMAP over SSL, SMTP with STARTTLS, SMTPS with TLS, or POP over SSL; suggested options include Thunderbird, Evolution, KMail, ClawsMail, Mailpile, K-9 Mail, FairEmail, and iOS Mail. Connections to the mail server use SSL, while outgoing messages use TLS if the recipient’s server supports it. Messages remain unencrypted on Disroot’s servers unless users encrypt them themselves. Disroot says its data is stored on its own servers in a Netherlands data center. Email logs may include usernames, IP addresses, and sender and recipient addresses; they are retained for 48 hours and not backed up. The free email plan includes a 1 GB mailbox and 64 MB attachments. Plus addressing routes sub-addresses to the original mailbox. Users can link a custom domain for sending and receiving mail through a lifetime feature tied to a donation amount they choose. The service supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, Windows, and extensions.

EPRIVO

EPRIVO provides private email, collaboration, and online privacy products for consumers and organizations across Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows. Users can secure an existing email address or create an EPRIVO virtual address. Email controls include recall, viewing restrictions, expiration, and forwarding limits; past messages can be archived and encrypted. Private voice messages use the same controls as text messages and, according to EPRIVO, cannot be saved. Mobile apps can add end-to-end encryption and privacy controls to regular or group Telegram chats. Private Collaboration supports encrypted group activities, milestones, shared resources, and message controls. Private Identity Guard creates virtual registration addresses, forwards authenticated messages, and alerts on privacy leakage. EPRIVO describes zero-knowledge encryption with a device-generated key and physical separation algorithms. It states support for GLBA, SOX, HIPAA, FERPA, and GDPR. A 14-day trial is available, and plans include individual, family, celebrity, organization, and lifetime options.
