All of my primary email addresses are @verizzon.net, they were grandfathered in when Verizon bought AOL a few years ago.
Oh! I must have been grandfathered in. I am guessing that means if i change my email, no more verizon.net on end of it. Thanks for the heads up. I did not know this.

Why protonmail over Thunderbird if you like Mozilla products?

I've used Thunderbird for years and am perfectly satisfied with it.
They're not the same thing, i.e. I use protonmail exclusively WITH Thunderbird. Thunderbird is an email CLIENT, and as long as you configure it correctly, doesn't care whether it's pulling/sending messages from/to a hotmail/gmail/yahoo mail/America Online/protonmail et c. server. Protonmail is an email sever that HAS a web interface, but like you I prefer Thunderbird's. So I use protonmail for its secure servers and Thunderbird as my email and calendar client.

I hope that clears things up.
Ah okay I get it. Sorry, didn't connect that as your provider.

I've had the same email address for 20+ years so reluctant to change it. And you can't get "verizon.net" emails any more :cool:
Actually, I still get verizon.net emails. It started out as gte.net years ago then changed to verizon.net.
