How do I make a custom email? (For example [email protected])

So, I know nothing about MX records, Mail Servers, or anything like that. So please explain stuff in detail.

Please elaborate a bit more.

Do you have a domain name?
Do you have a web hosting package for the domains website somewhere? (a lot of times these include email as well)
If not do you want to host it yourself or is email/web-hosting an option?

I have a domain name and I registered it with my.freenom.

Then for the other questions, could you answer those as well:

Do you have a web hosting package for the domain’s website somewhere? (a lot of times these include email as well)
If not do you want to host it yourself or is email/web-hosting an option?

What do you mean by that?
I used to use Netlify, but now I use Clouflare.
All I currently know is that I need a Mail Server, but how do I get that?

That is why I asked the last question:

Hosting it yourself requires a bit more technical knowledge while a host is a lot easier but you’ll pay a bit per month to have storage for your email.
Email examples are listed here or you could go with a web hosting on top like in this list.

Also some information on email hosting: here

I basically want something thats free and would give me an email that is like this: [email protected]

That is not possible, you will need some kind of server behind it which will cost you money either as a one time buy at home + electrical cost and you will need to maintain that yourself or a monthly payment at a host, as low as $2.75 per month or maybe lower if you have a look around.

Okay, thanks.
