I just use gmail, it's honestly not that bad.

At the moment, I use ScryptMail and ProtonMail. I love their ScryptMail's alias feature.
ProtonMail because it seems to be common enough. Eventually I'll prob. just switch to my own server and domain tho.

There's no set time-frame, hence as stated In my previous post of "Yahoo do when the account Is Inactive for a certain period".

If It were In need, just remember to login every month or so.
There's no telling when It'll be recycled. To my knowledge, not even Yahoo themselves have revealed anything conclusive.

It's the email address Itself that's recycled and not the account, but If It's used for sensitive transactions and the like, the new owner may well be receiving the previous owner's emails- personal credentials Inclusive (If any).
When they decide to recycle a given email address, they usually wait a little while (until a lot of Incoming messages cease to transmit), and then recycle.

RE: Email services - SxTxN - 02-17-2017
At the moment, I am using Gmail and Outlook.
At the same time, I am investing into developing my own.
