I use posteo.de provider, it costs 1 eur for month, 3 adress, they have inbound encryption of emails as proton, also they dont accept crypto but you can pay by cash and card and "All of our payment methods are anonymised using a payment system developed by Posteo. We do not link payment information with email accounts." You can learn more about their privacy features on their site https://posteo.de/en/site/features#featuresprivacy

Why are you trying to sign up for Proton if you already use another provider?

Sure you can. Wouldn't that have been an easy excuse for this guy to reply with instead of all this defensive bullshit?
