My Gmail account is 99.9% correct in it's spam/not-spam decisions. All of the J forum stuff is always detected as not-spam. If it ever gets it wrong, I just click on the appropriate "not-spam" or "spam" button, and Google remembers my decision. I can send end-to-end encrypted email using the free Virtru plug-in. I use the "Important" flag feature to keep all the most interesting stuff at the top of my inbox. Plus, I can access my Gmail on anything with a browser, including my Nexus 6 Android, My Dell laptop, my Mac Pro laptop, and my Linux box. Plus I get a word processor, spreadsheet and PowerPoint clone, all of which runs on all of these devices (in the browser). And it is all free!
