Probably I port my email account to suggested email provider, who will stay free for a year.. then who knows..

Because your email account is integral to your online identity, password changes, new account registrations etc something permanent makes more sense. It can sometimes be difficult to change the email address used to create some accounts. At the very least, it's a pain and time consuming to change all those email addresses. Make sure you do it while the iinet account is still active in case you need it to verify your identity.
I can understand that you might not want to go to the extent of buying your own domain like RB and I. I'd recommend something like a hotmail/msn or gmail account. These are big companies, with very long term stable provided platforms.
I have had two hotmail accounts based on my name since 1997/8. Both offer a range of other apps in the cloud account plus online file sharing & file storage.
I also have a gmail account which I needed to access some google services - forms.
Both are excellent.
