Improve Default Address Handling for Forwarded/BCC Emails
Currently, the "Default Address (Custom Domain)" works only when emails are sent directly to it or to linked catch-all addresses. If the domain's MX does not point to Proton (e.g., it points to a forwarding service), Proton uses the actual recipient address (usually @proton.me) instead of my Default (Custom Domain) address when replying.
Note: In this scenario, it does not work even if the Custom Domain address is already set as the Default.Example: domain.com points its MX to a mailing list, which then forwards emails to my @proton.me and @gmail.com mailboxes. When a sender emails to @domain.com and the message is forwarded to my @proton.me address, I can't automatically reply using my Default Address (@domain.com). I must manually switch the From address from @proton.me to @domain.com.
I suggest adding checks for forwarded and BCC emails (i.e., in scenarios where "Header To ≠ RCPT TO"):
If "Header To ≠ RCPT TO", check whether the Header To address matches the user's Default Address.
If yes, use the Default Address when replying; otherwise, follow the existing Reply logic.
This ensures that replies consistently use the user's Default (Custom Domain) Address even for forwarded and BCC emails.

Email translation in mobile app
the ability to translate a message within the mail app interface in one click, just changes the language while keeping the email in its original layout.
this feature exists in Gmail. as an expat living in another country, I used it on a daily basis. it's a big deal, being able to display a message as is but translated to your language, rather than having to copy paste it into a separate translator app.

Auto forwarding rules based on Folder
Currently, auto forwarding conditions are limited to the subject, sender or attachment.
I've got a Duo plan and have some emails that I'd like to easily share with my partner. As the emails I'd like to share don't always fit within the above conditions, having it auto forward when put in a specific folder is the next best thing.
Proton Pass has something similar, where we can have a vault and share passwords automatically. Hoping something similar can be implemented in Mail.

re-send an email
When viewing a sent mail, add a item under the "..." more options called: resend. When clicking this button the composer opens with all the content (recipients, subject, body and attachments) from the previously sent mail, user can then edit anything as if it is a new mail, and send it as a new mail.

'Send' button becomes 'Send as scheduled' when editing a scheduled mail
Because we are already editing a scheduled mail, it makes sense that the 'Send' button follows the scheduled date, and becomes 'Send as scheduled'. This would prevent mistakes if we finish editing and we hit 'Send' thinking we are saving it for the scheduled date.

Smaller Time Increments For Scheduled Email Send Timing
For Proton Mail
I really appreciate the addition of the email scheduling feature and use it a lot when working at odd hours or across time zones. The current setup which allows emails to be scheduled on the hour or half hour works fine, but there are cases where smaller increments such as down to the minute would be helpful.
Firstly it makes the experience for the recipient seem less automated if a sender or recipient care about that. Secondly there are times when I'd like to schedule an initial email to a person or group and then another to arrive anywhere from 2-20minutes thereafter, particularly if I'm responding to multiple threads on different topics with the same person or group. It helps create the illusion the emails are happening in real time, prevents the recipient(s) from getting inundated with a big batch to work through possibly creating inertia, and staging them also lets me set a bit of a priority in what the recipients see and pull focus to first.
I'm sure there are more reasons this would be helpful and I look forward to learning more about those from everyone's comments.

booking pages
This might be an allocation or logic difference. While one Appointment Scheduling link is usually ok for most individuals. Please keep in mind that calendar applications have always been marketed to office workers with limited time. On the family/personal account side, having a private link to update the calendar would be nice.
The use case I am specifically thinking of is my Wife working retail, where the schedule is not 8/9-5. It shifts and is only known 2-3 weeks out. I would be nice for her to be able to go to a link and quickly post her 7-10 hour blocks through a link instead of having to constantly manually recreate her time blocks for each day. This would need 2 external links not just the one. We are moving to a business plan to cover this scenario.

Aliases leak original email when attaching public keys
When attaching a public key to an email sent using an alias will leak the original email by two ways:
1. With the public key name
2. Into the pgp key into the user identifier valueI don't know if it could be mitigated but is good to all know that you will leak your original email when attaching the public key

Private, local email counters in Mobile & Desktop apps
It would be great to have a basic monthly email counter (Sent/Received totals) in Proton Mail, stored strictly within the Mobile and Desktop apps for Account Oversight.
Simple & Privacy-First Implementation:
Local App Storage: The metrics can be stored locally using the app's internal database on iOS, Android, and Desktop.
Data Persistence: Because it's saved locally within the app, the data remains safe and persistent on the device without needing to sync with the cloud.
Zero Server Overhead: No data is stored on Proton servers, and no changes to server infrastructure are required.
100% Private: Since both calculation and storage happen entirely on the user's device, Proton has zero visibility into these metrics.

Availability options - have default weekly reoccurring schedule and modify select days.
I would like to see an improvement to the weekly reoccurring schedule. I like that as a base already, but would like to go in and modify select days to add a remove available times as needed.
Would be very similar to what proton has for repeating events in our calendar - we already have repeating events, but can still go in and modify individual instances of it.2 votes -
Separation of Proton and Custom Domain Mailboxes
Currently, Proton email addresses and custom domain addresses share the same mailbox view, which mixes all emails together. This approach feels unintuitive and makes it harder to manage communication across different identities.
I would prefer the ability to separate custom domain email accounts from Proton accounts into distinct mailbox views (or “drawers”). While it’s possible to use filters and folders as a workaround, this requires manually duplicating structure (Inbox, Sent, Drafts, etc.), which quickly leads to a cluttered sidebar and added maintenance overhead.
Would you consider introducing an option to define how email addresses are grouped within the interface? For example, allowing users to choose which addresses share a mailbox view and which remain fully separated.
This kind of flexibility would significantly improve usability, especially for users managing multiple identities or domains.

make the invitation email for calendar events optional
The email is currently mandatory.
There is at least one use case when the email is not desiderable:
I receive a Google Meet link with date and time by message in a Telegram DM or whatever.
The meeting is agreed upon and confirmed by both.
That person already has the event on his Google Calendar.
I want to set it on my Proton Calendar with the counterparty email as a reference for myself, but I would rather not send a duplicate confirmation email.

Collapsible Folder Management
After clicking on the "Manage your folders" icon right next to the + add new folders button, the user is taken to the Folders and labels settings page which shows all folders with subfolders indented.
The idea proposes that the parent folders have a collapsible feature to hide away the folder's subfolders to make folder management less cumbersome. The idea would be akin to how the Windows File Explorer's leftmost sidebar handles folders.2 votes -

Send email to alias from any address of a user without whitelisting or improve whitelisting process
Currently it seems to be impossible to send email to existing alias contact address from email which is not owning the alias. It results in delivery failure email "Attempt to use your alias site.name.slush525@passmail.net from secondaryme@pm.me"
This is problematic, because while you are automatically suggested previously used alias email address inside the recipient field (TO) of a new email form (that is GOOD), you do not remember which address of yours owns that alias in order to bother selecting it in the FROM field.
IMO Proton should automatically use correct FROM address on the background without failing with delivery failure email "Attempt to use your alias site.name.slush525@passmail.net from secondaryme@pm.me".
That email has a whitelist button while the email contains no assurance to the user that the whitelisted address will not be disclosed to the recipient, that they will just see alias as a sender.
------------ Detailed description/context and proposal if needed: ----------------
Inside Pass I have created new contact for one of my aliases, so i can email from this alias.
Then in Mail desktop app 1.13.3 used that generated contact address as a recipient of a new email while as a sender, i have NOT used my main Proton address (first one i have used to register proton account), but my secondary address secondaryhere@pm.me which i have recently set as my display one in Settings > Identity and addresses.
Result is a delivery failure email:
"
An attempt to send an email from your alias a.b.c@passmail.net using secondaryhere@pm.me is blocked.
As a measure to protect against email spoofing, we have blocked an attempt to send an email from your alias a.b.c@passmail.net using secondaryhere@pm.me.
Please note that sending from this alias only works from alias's owning mailboxes, that are mymainaddress@proton.me
If secondaryhere@pm.me can indeed send emails from your alias, you can add it to the allow list:
[Allow secondaryhere@pm.me]
"
last line is a button which i have clicked and on a webpage https://app.simplelogin.io/dashboard/mailbox/numberhere/ it shows my main proton email address entitled "Change Mailbox Address".
Why this is confusing? I wanted to allow my secondary address to send emails from aliases which were made for my main address, while obviously wanting to hide the fact the sender is my secondaryhere@pm.me and ensuring that recipient sees just correct alias.
I would expect that Proton would automatically allow sending from any address of mine while ensuring email will be sent anonymously (having alias address as a sender).
Ideas for improvement:
A) Automatically allow sending email no matter which sender address is selected, ensuring recipient sees just correct alias.
B) Allow user to manually whitelist address using email that I have received, but the
- allow button inside mine mentioned delivery failure email, should end up on a webpage which more relevantly explains whitelisting instead of vague "Change Mailbox Address" title and no explanation of impact.
- clarify text of mine mentioned email so it is apparent what means to whitelist address, allowing it to send from alias of my main address. What to clarify: for example i want to be ensured that by whitelisting, none of my email addresses will be disclosed to the recipient, but only alias as a sender.Currently it seems to be impossible to send email to existing alias contact address from email which is not owning the alias.

Time-tracking Calendar Integration
One missing feature from the Proton Suite is a Time-tracking layer integrated in the Calendar app.
It would be a handy feature to toogle on/off alongside your planned schedule, in order to track the real time invested in your projects, get records and overviews, and be able to learn from them and improve your workflow. All with the same level of privacy and encryption of the other features.
Right now Proton users still depend on external apps to track their time, which don't integrate in the Proton ecosystem nor offer the same kind of data security. More on the contrary, multiplatform time-tracking sync apps are full of commercial trackers (pun very much intended) alongside security bugs.
Also, If the Calendar app is indeed planning to allow to run it locally and asynchronized as an option, the Time-tracking layer could work the same way for those who don't want/need online sync between devices.
I think there's a niche in the market for such (encrypted) feature, and it would be a point of attention for (small) businesses and independent entrepreneurs, while weighting on the idea of the Proton Suite above others.

Synchronise Proton contacts with mobile phone contacts
I think it would be really useful if you could synchronise Proton contacts from all Proton apps with the contacts on your mobile phone. And in both directions: so that I have all the contacts from my mobile phone on Proton, and all the contacts from Proton on my mobile phone. That way, I wouldn’t have to back up my contacts to iCloud, for example, and could back them up securely in Proton. But at the same time, I’d still have the contacts stored locally on my mobile phone so that I could easily use them for all messaging apps and the like.
