Have you considered a paid service? Something like mailbox.org, Zoho, or one that comes with a domain provider.
I'm not definitely closing the door on them, but since the point is to have at leat one address that I'll hopefully keep all my life, I'd rather not, because I'd rather not have to change the address on all my subscriptions if I end up having to cut all non-essential expenses later. If it's mostly an address to sign up for accounts, it wouldn't really seem worth it when many gratis alternatives exist...
