Gmail and Outlook do provide one bonus that not many other providers can offer: the near-guarantee they'll still be around in many years time. These providers are so big that the likelihood of them surviving for many more years is almost a certainty.
In normal circumstances, the same goes for Mail.ru and Yandex, assuming they're not suffering financially right now.
Doesn't Yahoo also provide POP/IMAP or am I remembering wrong here? (It's been years ago since I last used Yahoo, but several people I know still happily use it. Never asked them if they use an email client or webmail)
