Would Mailfence, or Proton if you know, be a basic drop in replacement
for Gmail?  Basically, I don't really need end to end encryption.  I
just want a provider that doesn't snoop and will tell those who want to
snoop to go pound sand.  Some countries are better at that than others. 

Both Mailfence and Proton seem to cost about the same, for the paid
plans anyway.  I'd start with a free one just to test.  If things work
fairly well, go to a paid plan.  Maybe have my own domain thing that I
can move if needed.  Honestly tho, I'd want this to be my last move
email wise. 

Thanks for any info you can provide.  I really want to tackle this and
switch.
