Re: [Trisquel-users] What kind of email services are you using and recommend and why?

I think SuperTramp83 is right in recommending "ruggedinbox", as its servers  
are hosted "off-shore"
and are therefore outside of EU or mostly other legislation.
Sadly, all companies, ISP's, or any one hosting emails has to comply to  
lawful regulations,
which state that all "electronic communications" must be stored/archived  
(currently it's 6 months in the EU and 2 years in the US & UK).
Furthermore compliance regulations require the archiving of "electronic  
communications" which consist of not only email, but may include instant  
messaging, file attachments and SMS text messages, VoIP and other electronic  
messaging communications used.
