I recommend fastmail.com though they do have done shortcomings that you need to consider such as the fact that they're based in Australia (five eyes country) and have servers in the USA. Their advantage is a slick interface, fantastic app based on JMAP, and just generally being super convenient. They allow catch all addresses, masked emails, custom domain etc. I find them super convenient.
Another upvote or seven for fastmail.com - I spent a little too much time spinning my personal domain hosting through Fastmail, Tutanota, Proton, mailbox.org... and then came back full circle to Fastmail.
Their shortcomings, if you're concerned about privacy, are listed right above^^^ but I don't think you can find a better email hosting provider for the pricing.
Email isn't that secure anyway (don't use email if your life or freedom depends on it), so I don't see that as much as a downside.
