I'm curious what security level you use on your email accounts? I do not use desktop apps, though I do use an email app on my Android phone. For my main account I use the typical username and password (long and unique), plus I have 2-factor authentication via a physical security key. For Gmail I could be using Passkeys instead, but not 100% sure I want to go there yet. I'm wary of using IMAP and POP on accounts since they seem to be possible security problems. Still, despite any security I use at my end, it all comes down to how well the company is implementing security at their end. For example, what type of password recovery or account recovery security do they use? Do they store your passwords securely? Or, maybe the better philosophy is just to delete your emails fairly often so there is little there worth finding, though once they have control of an email address they might be able to access other accounts like banks and investments.
