Several years ago, when I left Cox, my new provider provided me
an email account. I don't remember even what the address is, and
I don't think I ever activated the account, because for years,
I've done my mail through a dedicated mail service provider.
In my view, if you simply want mail, you're fine with getting it
from your connectivity provider. If you want more than that, then
you need to be using a dedicated mail service provider (including
more advanced spam filtering). And if you want to avoid having
your content being exploited by your provider (e.g., gmail,
hotmail, yahoo, etc.) consider the option of moving to a paid
service, where the provider is serving you, as a paid customer.
The other benefit of using a provider that's not your
connectivity provider is that if you change connectivity
providers, then you don't have to make a corresponding change in
your email address.
I've agree with the above.
I have used paid email and news servers for years for that reason.
I find it particularly beneficial that my mail provider is a
local company.
