riseup
In December 2014, a judge in Spain partially justified prolonging the detention of seven alleged anarchist activists by citing their use of "extreme security measures" such as Riseup email, the judge's act has been criticized by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF).[17][18]

Lol, didn't know that. So using strong security measures is kind of illegal... man, world is fucked up

Disroot, Elude and Riseup. Commercial one is Posteo. They all respect your privacy, and have the best quality.

Disroot.
You should be able to use any email client.

I'd go with setting up or using someone else's Nextcloud or you use Protonmail. Everything comes at a cost, your only option to be truly private is to not exist.

Some domain registrars offer some e-mail plan when you get a domain. I know I got a domain with 2 mailboxes for like 10€ a few years ago (it was OVH but I'm pretty sure other providers offer the same kind of deal).
The thing is sometime the web interfaces are not very good but you can use any other mail client AND can use a custom domain name for your address, that's cool.
Then I ended up hosting my e-mails myself but if it wasn't by curiosity I would have stuck with the offered plan.
