    Well, if the other person uses protonmail, your client encrypts the email content before submitting it, which means protonmail can’t read it.

    If they do not use protonmail, well, protonmail can. They apparently store the emails after they have been sent encrypted with a key in your account, so they can’t read them afterwards.

      Proton mail apparently can’t read it. They actually can.

      They’ve also proven that they’ll give your information to law enforcement in a heartbeat.

      About 99% of the world doesn’t use protonmail. What good does it do if your email is stored unecryptes in the recipient’s imbox over on gmail, apple mail, copilot 360, yahoo, yandex, or whatever else?
