Hello.

Which free e-mail service is the best to use? Here are the requirements:

1) Easy and newbie friendly.

2) Since easy and newbie friendly, it needs to be able to detect spams
and malwares so the user won't fall for them.

3) Supports Chinese languages with English.

4) No blockages like with China and others.

5) Acesssible from any e-mail clients on computers, portable devices
(e.g., iOS and Android), etc.

Would Gmail service be the best option to use?

Thank you in advance. :)

Hi,

Gmail is easy enough, even for a beginner.

In my experience Gmail put all spam in the 'spam' folder.

> 3) Supports Chinese languages with English.

I have no idea - but I guess Gmail could handle all languages. I'm not
sure.

> 4) No blockages like with China and others.

I have no idea, sorry.

Gmail can be used on all devices, as far as I am aware.

> Would Gmail service be the best option to use?

Assuming you can solve questions 3 and 4; I reckon Gmail would be good.

Also a Gmail account provides access to all other Google services.

I hope that is of some help, I have used Gmail for years - and it has
always been good for me.

Regards
