So far, they've been pretty good to me, as far as free emails go. There were a few bumps getting started, but their support staff was helpful, and I haven't had any issues in five years or more. Now, it may be that they are changing, too. I haven't kept up with all the latest news. Usually I get my emails through Kmail, so I don't know about changes online, to their website or policies. When last I logged in by a webpage, it seemed that some of their domains were no longer available, but I didn't spend much time investigating. I believe that Zoho has all those features you mention. If I remember correctly, they are based in India.
