Protonmail would be great with some usability and feature improvements. Right now it has limited support for imap, smtp, pop3. You're basically limited to the biggest desktop clients. The desktop web client is okay.
But the biggest drawback right now that I can see, is mobile. Their app does not support threaded conversations or any of the newer features that we've come to expect because of Gmail. You also can't use a third party app like k9. So for me at least, it's not good enough yet to use as my primary account. Really wish it was though.
- ornel 8y agoI just signed up for the Linux trial version of the ProtonMail bridge and installed it on my Mint box. Now I get mail via IMAP on Thunderbird totally transparently and couldn't be happier. My only complaint right now is the inability to forward mail automatically (which I understand, they can't decrypt my mail in order to forward it), and also that I can't sign up my wife on my custom domain without getting a significantly more expensive business plan, but otherwise I'm very happy and getting closer to ditching Gmail altogether.
