Agreed. And: https://tutanota.com/ https://tutanota.com/
Gmail used to be good alright, but then it started to ask for my phone number all the time. I've switched to Tutanota recently, much better IMO, particularly the new client: https://mail.tutanota.com/ https://mail.tutanota.com/
- Promarged 8y agoI just tested tutanota. The interface is clean and nice but the encryption to external contacts is the same as in Gmail (link back to tutanota and shared passwords). Why can't these services use something like OpenPGP's Web Key Discovery [0] fetching key from https://domain.com/.well-known/openpgp/hu/hash-for-localpart https://domain.com/.well-known/openpgp/hu/hash-for-localpart and avoid links altogether?

- kroberton 8y agoAvoiding links is the ultimate goal, hopefully Tutanota will integrate your suggestion or something similar. I've moved my entire family to Tutanota, which also works quite well. But you'll never convince everybody... As far as I know self-destruct emails in Gmail are not end-to-end encrypted.
- Boulth 8y agoGood to hear, I'm also interested in that (hushmail, mailbox.org also use link backs). Is there an issue tracker or a mailing list where one can subscribe and see when this would be available?
- amelius 8y agoIs it open-source like protonmail?
- kroberton 8y agoYep: https://github.com/tutao/tutanota/ https://github.com/tutao/tutanota/ Devs say they want to publish the app on F-Droid. https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/secure-mail-open-source https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/secure-mail-open-source
- Boulth 8y agoDid I get this right: the client is open source while the service that works in the backend and does 80% of the job is closed source?
- bbbobbb 8y agoThe design with multiple domains is pretty annoying. So I register bob@tutanota.com but forget to register bob@tutanota.de and anybody can squat it and impersonate me from the same service? Not to mention they blocked my IP after registering 3 of the 5 available domains.
- wink 8y agoSame problem with the old GMX. "was that john.doe@gmx.de or john.doe@gmx.net" - I get it, people should be able to differentiate, but they're really not.
- kroberton 8y agoI'm using my own domain anyway. When your last name is your domain, it gets impossible to impersonate you with any free service. And as it's only 1 Euro, it's also cheap and easy.
- drwu 8y agoI would use tutanota if they could change a simpler domain. When I wake up on the second morning after I've registered an email account, it was impossible for me to remember whether the domain was tunanota, notatuna, nonanuta or tutanote...
