I use both. FastMail: + simple, lean, paid email. + fast web interface ++ working full text search( not just subject line) + No ads. + iOS App. Fast and simple. + Integrated calendar - No encryption. - group calendar has been a pain or non intuitive. Protonmail: + Encrypted + Lean, safe web interface + IOS App that works. + or - Free as in cost. - - - No Full text search. - can't really configure your chosen email client to it... - last time I tried, dragged and dropped images disappeared. May have improved UI now. I only use protonmail for automated alerts and system originated communication.

About this point: "- can't really configure your chosen email client to it..." Do you have any experience with using the IMAP Bridge? It is a daemon you run locally that translates between Protonmail's internal protocol and IMAP, to let you use your email client of choice. I'm using it and it seems to be working OK in my experience, but I don't use my Protonmail account heavily.

  My experience with the bridge (on an account with maybe 10k emails) was that it was unfortunately unusable.

    Did you try the bridge recently? The last update should have fixed this issue for large accounts.

      Thanks, I tried the latest version just now and it synchronised all folders without crashing (never happened before for me).
