So you need like the most basic web hosting you can buy and a client like outlook or thunderbird. That is your answer. Simply put it won't be free.

The other option is where ever you bought your domain will likely have a cheap or free option to create a forwarder for your email. Problem is then your replies will come from yahoo or proton or what ever.

Who did you buy you domain from? Do you have a website hosted there? If so you should have no problem creating an pop or imap email for what ever client you choose to use.
