    End-to-end encryption is the only way to go. It then doesn't matter who your provider is as long as you don't use their webmail interface Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 20:37

  • Part, and only part, of your question is a product recommendation. Those are prohibited on this site. I suspect that you can reword that part of your question per blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/11/qa-is-hard-lets-go-shopping. Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 21:39

    I'm not sure why you think that using a non-US based email carrier protects you from the NSA? I'm pretty sure that Angela Merkel's phone provider wasn't US based even though the NSA tapped it. In fact, the NSA has much greater restriction on their behaviors when working within the US, so US-based email may actually be better protected against the NSA. That said, I'm not sure why you are worried about the NSA, but that's a different topic. Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 21:42
  • I want to point out that any encrypted email solution that meets the requirements you request will also require the sender to use a compatible email client to transmit encrypted email. So email from, for example, your bank won't be encrypted no matter the email provider you use is. Commented Sep 23, 2015 at 21:45
