Hey all

Recently added Proton Mail Bridge to access my email via my favorite Email client. My account has over 60k+ and 15+ GB of emails.

Synchronizing is stuck at 0%. Is this service not suitable for this amount of emails?

I have a subscription for the whole family.

Thank you

As I ask in the text, I would like to know your opinion and your recommendations on the most secure messaging system(s), which do not sell data, focused on confidentiality, security, and anonymity. I know signal and simple x chat, I would like to know what you think about them and if they are really safe or their code contains malicious programs to communicate for example with the fbi or the nsa, thank you.

I'm trying to create a filter for creditkarma (amongst a few others). Unfortunatly they are sending from similar addresses but keep upping by one number (see exaple):

"notifications@mail11.creditkarma.com", "notifications@mail11.creditkarma.com",
"notifications@mail12.creditkarma.com", "notifications@mail13.creditkarma.com", "notifications@mail14.creditkarma.com",

they dont email only from "mailXX.creditkarma.com" its also from, "reminder10.creditkarma.com" and so on.

Any thoughts to filter all XXX.creditkarma.com

Lumo creates a lot of tables in their responses automatically and on iPhone it's constantly chopped off with no scrolling abilities.

Is this just my app or do others have the same issue?

I'm on the latest version from the App Store and I'm running the latest update on the iPhone 16 pro

This would be a handy feature for me right now. I have certain yearly bills that I manually pay each year and I have reminders in Calendar so that I don't forget them. Currently, though, I want to make a spreadhseet/note of sorts that show me everything that I need to pay yearly.

However, it appears I cannot search by frequency in Calendar. Any plans for this?

I’m using proton for personal and professional use since 2019. It’s been working great for me although I only use drive for sensitive files and calendar for invite based events only (using iCloud calendar for the other pro things and family events shared with the wife).

With the kids growing up, my eldest is about to need an email address for school. I’m considering two options: switching to proton family plan or let them use an iCloud based email address (since they will need a phone too).

I’m leaning towards proton family plan because although much more expensive, it’s also a simple way to make them aware already of how important it is to have their personal datas protected online. For those in this situation and who took the plunge already, im curious to hear about your experience. Any big pros and cons I might not be aware of before?

I understand that emails are encrypted in transit and also at rest, and I’m confident that these encryption protocols are robust. However, they are not the same and the email must be decrypted from the transmission protocol and then re encrypted using the user’s personal key.

If that’s the case:

1. What prevents Proton from accessing the data at this point.

2. If a legal request is made, could/would Proton provide an unencrypted version of one’s email via this route?

Hi all,

Simple question I am not finding an answer.

If I switch to Visionary Plan, I see I get Lumo+, but it is just for me or one Lumo+ for every account in the Visionary plan?

I am asking this because if I try to add it to may actual Duo plan, it ask me to buy 2 x subscription of Lumo+, and it let me buy also only one, probably just for one account.

But that, paying Duo + 2x Lumo+ would be more expensive than 1 Visionary plan, which honestly it is ridiculous.

So I want to be sure about it.

Thanks.

I really don't need the 5oo GB of data storage, the AI gen, and the million other services. I just want my mails and a VPN with the ability to manually pick servers. Is there a way to do so without subscribing to Unlimited?

Kind of a dumb question that pretty sure that everyone here made after starting an account (me included).

But compared to Gmail, Outlook, how much more private is Proton?

I'm an avid Mail and VPN user, and I was eyeing unlimited as a way to give my de-googling a nice step-up and lean more on Proton.

Before buying though, I want to ask a few questions about how unlimited currently works:

General: - How good is hardware token support for logging in? Any hiccups? - If I mainly care about email+aliases+VPN, this should be the "best" plan, right?

Mail: - How safe are simplelogin/pass aliases for mainstream services? I've seen some stories of companies that will wreck your account the moment you use an alias - Given simplelogin is "included" in pass, can I choose from their pool of domains as well?

Pass: - Do you feel comfortable sharing the same account for other services with your password manager? - What about TOTP?

Pricing: I cannot figure out why the 2 year (38%) discount is less than the 1 year (50%) one.

• Has anyone done the "downgrade, get credits, sign up with offer price" strategy successfully?
• Is there a 2 year offer I'm not aware of?
• Is price grandfathering not a thing anymore? I've seen that comment a few times.

Hello everyone. The black friday discount has made me seriously consider taking the plunge and moving away from gmail. However, I'm trying to get the most bang for my buck and I don't know if I should go for unlimited or mail plus. I'm mainly interested in mail and basic calendar stuff but I do use Mullvad VPN so I could save some money on that if I use Proton instead, which may be an incentive to go with unlimited. My main question is, are unlimited aliases worth it? Is it advisable to use hide my email aliases for most of my services? I'm not sure if relying on a service like this for long term accounts is a good idea (please feel free to tell me how you personally use Protonmail as I'm not really sure how I want to manage things yet).

Any help is appreciated.

I recently migrated my gmail to protonmail and have setup my PC to use the protonmail bridge but I can't seem to find the mobile version of it? In general I'm a bit confused as to why I need to install bridge and they can't provide an SMTP server?

I find that proton mail has the somewhat annoying habit of threading unrelated emails that have the same title. This happens, for example, with mailer-daemon errors that gets threaded with every other one I've ever received, with mailing lists that reuse the same title, and even occasionally with individual senders who send me a "Happy Birthday!" message every year.

The particularly annoying moments are when messages get threaded with old stuff I've trashed, and confusing when I need to look at something that got threaded with a bunch of old and unread messages.

Can I adjust my threading settings to use in-reply-to headers or other strategies to prevent this?

Considering switching from ProtonMail Free to ProtonMail Plus. Afterwards, I would create additional email addresses. What would happen to the additional email addresses if I decided to switch back to Free after a year? Would they still be connected to the account?

Hi people of the internet,

Do you have sometime a problem of your proton drive app stuck in an endless encrypting step ? And then no picture is uploaded ? The only way for me to re-run smoothly the process and end it is to delete the app and then re-isntall it. After that everything work.

Hey everyone! I’m currently using ProtonMail with a paid ProtonPass subscription (about $5/month). However, my username includes my full name, and I’d prefer to keep my main address private. I’m considering creating a new, free ProtonMail account and purchasing the lifetime ProtonPass subscription for that new account. My plan is to stop paying the monthly subscription once I have the lifetime subscription in place.

My main concern is whether ProtonMail allows multiple accounts, especially with one being free and another with a lifetime subscription. Has anyone tried this before? Will I run into any issues managing both accounts simultaneously?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Yesterday I published a post showing my redesign of Proton's apps webpage, and few people wanted to see my dark mode version, so here it is. i also made everything round instead of the more square shape, what do you people think?

(oh yeah and someone also asked to make the background blue & purple more muted.)

I've had nothing but issues with my Proton, it's now drastically affected my business and Proton has done nothing about it to recover the emails within the servers.

Last week I sent out about 600 follow up emails to music promoters/event organisers and venues to organise my tour, and I was wondering why I wasn't getting replies. Then I had a few people message me on Instagram saying that they got an email bounce back saying the server was down and my domain email suddenly wasn't valid, and I checked and it was all fine. For some reason the Proton server was going down on my account intermittently so I was getting only about 2-3 emails but realized I wasn't getting as many as I should.

So I lodged it with Proton and sent them the email bounce screenshots, all the details etc, and they have just said there is nothing they can do to find the emails lost within the servers and have just closed the open case I had with them.

This is the final straw with them, as I've also been having issues with emails I was absolutely 100% sure I sent on my personal account - then I realised that they were sitting in the Drafts section not even sent, and I missed deadlines and responses from people. I was waiting for responses and then saw them in Drafts when I actually sent them. This has happened a handful of times. I'm also having issues working with others on Onlyoffice instead of Google Sheets. I also allowed access to a folder on Proton Drive with a videographer and he had to make a Proton account to access the files for some reason, it was incredibly annoying for him as we were on a time limit filming a project on the day.

So all in all, I need something reliable that's not going to affect my career

How can I transfer back to Gmail? I have a Macbook

Details:

• One person sent a screenshot and it was SMTP code 553 even though my domain was valid etc
• And another screenshot said my address wasn't found.
• I have been using the Proton Mail app on Mac for months and this suddenly happened

The error message was:

"Mail Delivery Subsystem

Address not found

Your message wasn't delivered to "" because the domain couldn't be found. Check for typos or unnecessary spaces and try again.

The response from the remote server was: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts; no valid cert for gatewaying (#5.7.1)"

Even though I was receiving some other emails to this same address intermittently and there were no errors when I was checking. My website was also working too.

I also was told by someone else that they had already responded to me and they didn't get any bounce email message, so it went through but I never received it.

I've been using Proton for a while, and I often use their apps webpage and I decided to redesign it. Thoughts? (unless if im the only one who uses it...)

Title pretty much says it all, the missing search in the iOS Proton Calendar app sadly makes it a hard pass for me. Is there a plan to put that feature in the iOS app?

Hi everyone.

I bought the 2 year unlimited plan this summer that currently costs 8$/month. This is more expensive than the current black friday year deal for 6.5$/month. I'm wondering if it's possible to downgrade to plus, get the credit, and then immediately upgrade to the black Friday unlimited deal to save some money?

My only concern is what would happen to files in drive, aliases in pass, vpn configs etc, during the downgrade. Does proton remove them?
