Okay, one of us simply doesn't understand what the other is saying.
I'm telling you why normies don't adopt encrypted email (the tooling is fiddly, confusing and hard to use) and you're coming back at me with stuff like "configure dovecot to use virtual folders" which is not something most email users can do.
>Again, you'd probably be better off not trying to with GPG and just using Thunderbird or installing an Android app with encryption. It sounds like you have no interest in configuring anything more complex or working on solutions to these problems without trying to complain about GPG which isn't the problem at all:
A majority of people will not use Thunderbird because more and more people don't use computers any more. Their phones or tablets are their primary computing devices. Thunderbird is not a solution. And there really aren't many good free email apps out there (remember, you're competing with free because a lot of these people are on Gmail already). The biggest alternative mail client for Android in terms of recommendation tends to be K9 mail which on my OnePlus 3 and my Pixel 3 simply did not work at all.
