I've been using email since the early '80s.

Learned early on that it is best to have an email address independent of your Internet provider. My first Internet provider changed the name of their company service, hence the first change. Had a company email that I had to change when I left the company. Then aol and CompuServe, both from dialup days.

So once it was possible, I got both my own domain and email based on my last name. Also got Gmail and Outlook addresses.

Gmail is the best for me, and able to harvest emails from all the previous emails addresses that still work.

Bottom line, for convenience, get an email address that is independent from your Internet provider. I never use my Spectrum, Comcast, Verizon, Frontier, or AT&T email addresses.
