I have found it necessary to change email servers due to my Skymesh satellite coverage being out of action for at least 6 months. What to use? Have a gmail address and am aware other family members use hotmail. Would appreciate feedback on which would be best in the opinion of fellow forum members. Thanks in advance.

They all do the same thing.
I’d just go with whatever is easiest to set up for you.

I have both.
The Hotmail account I have had since high school, never had a problem with it.
The gmail account I got 3 years ago so I could get email on my phone, haven’t had any problems with that one either

It also depends on how you interface with it. I have both hotmail and gmail and find the hotmail interface is steadily getting worse and worse but the account works fine other than that. For gmail, I only use it for some sign in accounts and only ever enter it via an app but have never used it to send an email but have no complaints on that either…

Gmail or Hotmail would be the go, don’t go with one that is provider specific because if you change providers you have to ditch the email address.

You can tell by the stuff we are fond of quoting.
That makes me early 60’s, and PWM about 411.

Might I ask why your Skymesh service has been out of action for 6 months? The only reason it would be out of service for that long, is if you haven’t paid the bill in that long.
