Still serves targeted ads and my data is linked to my Google profile. One of the things I want to escape from.

I'm currently attempting to move away from Gmail to a email provider that respects my privacy.Can anyone on HN suggest a online service that protects my privacy, has IMAP support and is preferably free?In addition is it possible to delete most of the data Google currently ties to my profile?
