Doesn't Fastmail has similar terms of service, i.e, that they can terminate your account any time for any reason whatsoever. Source : https://www.fastmail.com/about/tos.html

This is the biggest reason I am hesitant to try fastmail.

Fast mail are generally good at support, so unlike google you're not dealing with a black hole when something needs to be fixed.

Yes, but their terms of service are absolutely preposterous (unjustified and unannounced termination at anytime).

Most mail providers can terminate users for any reason, but at least with a few days of notice, allowing you to move the data elsewhere.

This is why step 1. is important, along with step 6. have an automated backup of your mail, whatever the provider.
