Gotten several suggestions - thanks for all.  Point:  Being ABLE to sign 
up w/ an email provider via Tor * & * that provider being trustworthy 
(not selling your address, scanning contents to sell for advertising [if 
don't encrypt messages] are 2 entirely different things.  Like doctor, 
mechanic recommendations, I always prefer them from actual clients / 
users (preferably > 1) that have used them > 1x & been satisfied.

Jed:  ** "What am I looking for?" **  Mostly anonymity & untraceability 
- for all * practical * purposes. Not to evade LEAs. But... if need to 
send whistle blower type email - or - some (polite) ones to neighbor w/ 
car up on blocks, I want NO way they can trace it, short of LEA becoming 
involved.  Though sending truthful whistle blower messages isn't 
unlawful, people w/ power have powerful connections.  Both examples are 
real scenarios for me.

If those requirements help anyone w/ suggestions of providers they've 
personally used - or read enough unbiased, technical reviews to be 
reasonably sure a provider has a very good reputation, that's better 
than, "I've heard of these - give them a look."

GMX may not be even close to a good choice for these purposes. However, 
was NEVER able to get past them claiming JS was off, using Tor, Tor & a 
proxy, just a proxy - even though proxies had option to allow JS - & 
even if whitelisted their site in NoScript.  However, some of other 
suggested providers may be better choices, assuming they're not spammers 
in sheep's clothing.

Thanks Praedor, adrelnos, antispam06 - for other email provider names.  
Will check out.  Heard of safe-mail a long time - don't know anyone 
personally that's used it.
Tor mail - I remember some discussion here about ? some issue about 
their policy? question of servers location? who runs it?  Can't remember.
