You can export mails, but only if you're on a paid plan.
Then you can install Proton Mail Bridge (which exposes a fake IMAP server to your machine) and a mail client (e.g. Thunderbird). Then you move all your mail from Proton to your new service by drag-n-dropping inside of your mail client.
I did it in order to move to Mailbox.org (great service), exactly because I don't want to give money to a company run by a Trump supporter.
Also, get ready to receive replies in which they tell you "Ackchyually he's not a trump supporter!!!1"

All UK/EU email providers offer this (and any that don't may need a polite reminder for them to play ball). https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/individual-rights/individual-rights/right-to-data-portability/ https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-re...
- GoblinSlayer 4mo agoI thought protonmail supports imap. Or was it discontinued?
- teekert 4mo agoThere is a local bridge which transparently communicates between Proton’s encrypted servers and offers imap locally. Only on non-mobile OSs afaik. [0] [0] https://proton.me/mail/bridge https://proton.me/mail/bridge
- reddalo 4mo agoThat's exactly what I wrote in my comment above. You need to install Proton Mail Bridge. But it only works if you're on a paid plan.
