Hi, I am not affiliated with any of the following, but I use them:

https://riseup.net/ is global U.S. based, with a free option, and they 
claim to care about user privacy (I only say "claim" because I didn't 
audit them).

https://protonmail.com/  There's a limited free option, it is global and 
operates under Swiss laws. Cares about user privacy to a great extent 
(no logs, user encrypted inbox, onion site access possible...). Only 
caveats I am aware of is that they can be compelled to reveal user IP 
address by Swiss laws (it happened once at the request of the French 
government), so if you care about that use a vpn or TOR to access your 
mails I guess. The paid options are solid professional options.

I still use gmail for public lists and general junk subscriptions, 
Thunderbird handles oauth2 nicely.
