I've come across Tutanota recently when looking to an email service to sign up for without a phone number. Tutanota was the only one I could find.
Maybe there are more, but the amount of tracking (phone number, ip addresses, etc.) that's going on online right now really scares me. It becomes close to impossible to use the internet anonymously. Some sites now even force you to sign up with Facebook and the likes, that's mad!
Anyway, I'm very happy that I've found Tutanota - not only can I use it anonymously, it's also encrypted and open source.

Tutanota deletes your email after 6 month of innactivity
This really is a huge downside.

It works and it's secure. Also has a nice UI.
I like that it's simple, open source, and not related to Google, Yahoo, or any of the other controlling, data hungry tech giants. I also like that they don't require a cell phone number or a connection to social media BS.
I actually like Tutanota more than Protonmail, even though, Protonmail is claimed as the best, I actually like Tutanota better because I feel that it is more accessible in more OSs. I have it on my Linux Mint, iPhone and Windows. Unlike, Protonmail that I would have to access it via web browser. The only downside to Tutanota is the fact that you can only pay for premium with credit card or PayPal, I mean come on, that is a huge downside!
UI is consistent, security is good, it’s open source and it works well.
