command line email clients and gmail.com

[Glenn At Home]

I hadn't thought of it until now, but I use Startpage.com for my search 
engine, because Google can't track your searches, and they have the same 
privacy with startmail.
go to:
http://www.startpage.com/
and make it your search engine, and there is information for startmail there 
too.

I've had good luck with Fastmail, www.fastmail.com. Two-factor is
available but not nandatory. Option of per-app passwords so if someone
gets the password you use for mutt, they can't access the other features
of your account. I'm using it successfully for sending and receiving
mail using mutt under Linux, Outlook under iOS, and the standard mail
program on iPhone.
