Re: "wanted: secure email service recommendation"

In: u/AnoikisNomads

Protonmail and Tutanota only work with their own mail clients.

Slight correction here: Proton does provide the Proton Bridge application that you can run as a local IMAP/SMTP server so any email client can access the Proton servers securely.

(Trivia: bbs.geminispace.org uses Proton Bridge to send notification emails via `sendmail`.)

@skyjake I guess you're right. I have that in my notes. Sadly Protonmail doesn't seem to have a precompiled bridge for my system and I believe on Android I'd still have to use their app. Thanks though, this reminds me that Protonmail isn't technically out, just down in the list for hassle ;)

@byte: disroot is out for many reasons. encryption at rest is limited to using openPGP, as well as commercial activities wherever they draw the line for that. Still, they look like a great grassroots project and I hope they make it long term

email sucks, period, why hang on to a 30 year old insecure protocol ... Bitmessage was promising and yet it's barely used ...

wanted: secure email service recommendation — I'm looking for a secure email service. A few requirements are non-negotiable, which seem to rule out most of the most-often recommended ones. must work with any email client. I'm using mutt on my main pc and K-9 on my phone. Protonmail and Tutanota only work with their own mail clients. must allow my own domain. I have several domains and I want to use @mydomain.xyz mailadresses. This makes moving to other mail services in the (hopefully far)...
