Best email provider against spam? (lemy.lol)

I want to use my main mail address everywhere, even public places. But I doubt if I can guard myself against spam.

Is there a provider specialized in spam protection? Or at least good at it?

At last, given your experience, should I even do it?

I own my domain but I'm not sure about provider. I want to use "[email protected]" on my public profiles so unique mails for services trick wouldn't work for me.

I like this one. I guess I can use this for registrations. Thanks

I like Zoho. It can be free as long as you use the web/mobile app. If you want to use your own email software, it's $1/mo for the lowest paid tier.

Then you're going to get spammed to hell, live with it.

There's no spam filters that will protect you 100% from putting the same email address everywhere.

Using personalized aliases for everything and never showing a public address if you can help it is the only way to fight spam these days.

Well, you could curate your own whitelist, but that's not very practical for most use cases.
