In their own words
Gmail
Gmail is an email service available on the web, Android, and iOS. A Google Account is required to sign in. Free accounts include up to 15 GB shared across Gmail, Drive, and Google Photos; Google One Basic costs $1.99 a month for 100 GB, shareable with up to five others. Gmail supports aliases, and business plans can provide email addresses on a customer's own domain. Gemini in Gmail can help draft or reply to messages, find information in Gmail or Drive, and summarize long threads. Smart Reply, Smart Compose, and Nudges offer writing and follow-up assistance. Gmail connects with Meet, Calendar, Tasks, and Chat, while mail merge can use up to 1,500 recipients from a linked spreadsheet. Google says Gmail automatically blocks 99.9% of spam, phishing attempts, and malware. Messages use TLS, and content is encrypted in transit and at rest. Business Starter costs $7 a month per user and includes 30 GB pooled storage per user and custom business email; higher business plans list additional storage and features. Some Google One plans allow storage sharing with up to five others.
Mailo
Mailo is an email service available on the web and through Android and iOS apps, with calendar, address book, cloud and sharing services. Its free plan includes 1 GB of email storage, 500 MB for documents and photos, five aliases, advertising banners, and IMAP4 and EAS access. Premium is listed at €1.50 per month and expands the mailbox to 20 GB, with 5 GB for a virtual disk and photo albums and up to 100 aliases. Premium also removes webmail advertising, supports attachments up to 50 MB and provides POP3 or IMAP4 access. It includes a lifetime email address, and the offer can be activated for one to five years. Mailo says it stores data in France, does not use or sell it, and does not read messages; listed features also include end-to-end encryption and custom domains. Migration tools can retrieve messages, contacts and events from an old provider and set up forwarding. Mailo says it offers responsive, personalized support in English.
