email sweep
Microsoft's Outlook email app has a feature called "Sweep," which allows one to highlight an email, and then take action on and set up a rule for all emails from that sender.
Options include:
Move all messages from the Inbox folder
Move all messages from the Inbox folder and any future messages
Always keep the latest message and move the rest from the inbox folder
Always move messages older than ten days from the inbox folderThe default destination is "Deleted Items." Other options include:
Junk Email
Inbox
Archive
or any other folder the user chooses or creates.It is very helpful for keeping one's inbox tidy, and could possibly ease the storage requirements on the server. It greatly simplifies the task of deleting an entire class of emails.
While I appreciate Proton not wanting to overcomplicate its products, it is possible that the overhead implementing it would entail might be obviated by the savings in storage.

Choose which alias can log in to Proton
Hello Outlook.com now is accepting to choose what alias can be used to login on account to improve security.
Why Proton mail dont do the same thing? with this we are protected from botnets(credential stuffing or brute force), because we can create a alias and dont share the username with anyone.
Thanks

Advanced PGP Key Management for Proton Mail Users
Description
Currently, Proton Mail allows users to manually add PGP public keys to external addresses only.
This creates several limitations for users with more complex encryption setups or personal key hierarchies.
Problem 1: Limited Manual Control
Users cannot manually specify whether an email should be:
-
Signed only
-
Encrypted only
- Signed and encrypted
Instead, Proton Mail enforces a fixed default behavior per contact.
If a user wishes to change how messages are sent, they must manually adjust the contact’s encryption settings each time.
This slows down workflows and complicates secure communication.
Problem 2: External Keys for Proton Addresses
Some Proton users maintain their own personal PGP key pairs associated with their Proton-hosted email addresses (for example, to preserve local control or maintain a separate trust model).
However, when receiving messages from other Proton Mail users, Proton’s system automatically forces the use of the Proton-managed encryption keys, preventing users from:
- Assigning their external public key to that same Proton address, or
- Choosing an alternative key manually for encryption/signing.
This limitation breaks compatibility with privacy-focused setups or air-gapped key workflows.
Problem 3: Security Tradeoff
The only workaround — uploading the external private key to Proton — undermines the purpose of maintaining an offline or self-controlled key.
Even if Proton’s storage is zero-access, this still requires trusting Proton’s infrastructure with a key that ideally should never leave local custody.
Suggested Enhancements
-
Manual Key Override
Allow users to override key selection on a per-message basis, including:- “Sign only”
- “Encrypt only”
- “Sign and encrypt”
- “Send plaintext”
Custom Key Mapping for Proton Addresses
Enable assigning an external public key to a Proton-hosted address, even when interacting with another Proton user.Per-Message Key Selection UI
Add an “Advanced” or “PGP Options” dropdown when composing a message to select signing/encryption behavior or which key to use (similar to Thunderbird or GPGMail).
Rationale
These improvements would benefit advanced users who manage their own key infrastructure or use Proton as part of a broader privacy toolchain.
They enhance flexibility and control without compromising usability or Proton’s secure defaults for non-technical users.Description

push
Auto-dismiss push notifications when email is read on another device
Currently, when I receive a push notification on my iOS device about a new email, the notification remains visible even after I've opened and read that email on another device (such as my laptop or desktop). This creates notification clutter and doesn't reflect the actual state of my inbox.
Proposed Feature:
Implement cross-device notification synchronization so that push notifications are automatically dismissed on iOS when the corresponding email is read on any other logged-in device.Use Case:
Receive email notification on iPhone
Open and read the email on laptop/desktop
Notification automatically disappears from iPhone lock screen and notification centerBenefits:
Reduces notification clutter
Provides accurate inbox state across all devices
Improves user experience by eliminating manual notification dismissal
Brings Proton Mail in line with other modern email clients that support this featureAuto-dismiss push notifications when email is read on another device

Indent capability on mail message editor
I am using the MacOS client and WEB client and it would be nice to have an Indent capability to improve message formatting. Currently there are only bullets/numbers and alignment options.

I'd like to be able to choose whether to leave past events in color or gray like now.
You don't just work with the calendar looking forward; you often need to go back, and all the gray makes it difficult to see, especially when you have a lot of calendars and poor eyesight. Google Calendar lets you select how you want to view past events. That's what I need.

Move Multiple Messages Simultaneously
For better organisation it would be useful to be able to move multiple messages (in a single conversation) to another mailbox by selecting the "Move to" function in the highest message in that conversation.
Unless anyone can tell em otherwise this does not appear to be the case at present.

Booking Page - Disable feature altogether
The booking pages form a great feature for business users, but seeing as I use Proton as my personal account, I now have a permanent button to a feature that I don't use - and thus - have a cluttered calendar. I would prefer if I was able to disable the booking pages feature altogether, via the integrations settings, for example.

Option to disable email notifications when editing events with guests
Currently, editing any detail of an event with guests (even minor typos or description tweaks) forces an email update to all attendees. This creates unnecessary noise and inbox clutter.
Request: Add a checkbox in the edit dialog: "Send update to guests" (default: checked).
- If unchecked, save changes silently without emailing attendees.
- Essential for correcting typos or adding minor notes without spamming guests.
Why: Other calendar tools allow this granularity. Proton Calendar needs a way to distinguish between major changes (requiring notification) and minor edits.
Thank you,

Ensuring Core Email Address Privacy in Replies
I use SimpleLogin and recently replied to a sent message, which embedded my core email address in the body of the message making it visible to all recipients
In the same way there are alerts inside SimpleLogin to say, for example, that you cannot reply to yourself from an alias, it would be very helpful for there to be a real time scan to prevent your core email address being visible inside an email. This could either be a toggle in global settings or in the reply panel itself to enable exclusion of those recipients who have Proton mail addresses
Remembering to go through a whole email looking for a core email address isn't going to happen, so some automation would make sense.

Auto-spam emails from unsubscribed lists
It'd be nice if it were possible to automatically flag as spam any email from a distribution list for which I used Proton Mail's "Unsubscribe" feature to remove myself from the list. The idea is that if the list owner is not going to honor unsubscribe requests, and since I already indicated that I do not want to receive those emails, then the emails from that list are spam and should be treated as such. An automatic method to take care of this would be handy.

Event cancellation and rescheduling.
When an appointment or event is cancelled or rescheduled I often need a record of the originally scheduled day and time.
At minimum I would like the ability to add strikethrough text to the event title, so that I know that the event was cancelled.
Ideally I would like a cancel button (next to the delete and edit buttons) that strikes the event title and turns off notifications, and asks if I would like to reschedule. If I reschedule, it will duplicate the original event and allow me to set a new date (and modify the other settings, if needed). This would leave the original event struck through without notifications and adds a new event at a new date and time.
Of course the implementation can vary, especially if you want to expand this for events with other participants.
Note: I primarily use the Android app so if this is available elsewhere please bring it to Android.

Request for Bulk Deletion/Management of "Imported" Events in Proton Calendar
I recently imported a calendar file from WebCal.Guru, which added a large number of entries (approximately a year’s worth) to my Proton Calendar. After realizing that I no longer need these entries, I tried to delete or move them in bulk but encountered the following issues:
- Identifying the Events:
- I can search for these events using a common string included in each entry: “This calendar is provided by WebCal.Guru.” - However, after listing them via search, Proton Calendar does not allow selecting or managing multiple events simultaneously.- Desired Action:
- I would like to either delete or move all events that match this search term at once, to avoid manually handling each event individually..- Suggested Solutions:
- Adding a feature to allow multi-select and bulk action (delete/move) for events would be incredibly helpful, especially for handling imported or recurring events. - Capture the event of appending a calendar file to an existing calendar, and allow the option, at a future date, to remove those imported events.This would greatly improve the user experience and save significant time when managing calendar data. Thank you for considering this request, and I appreciate your work in making Proton Calendar a privacy-focused and user-friendly platform.

Add option to stop processing email filters
Please add a "stop processing filters" option to the custom filters - to prevent mail that meets the criteria of the first filter with this option enabled being processed by subsequent filters.
For example, if I have a rule that sends email to the trash or spam, I may not want subsequent filters from moving it elsewhere.

Proton Mail Desktop Email Client - Multiple Accounts
I would like to see a Proton Mail Desktop Email Client (app), where I can view the status of all 6 of my Proton Mail accounts simultaneously, without having to constantly switch between each one separately. Basically similar to desktop Mac Mail app or Thunderbird app, but for Proton Mail accounts only.

Inbox view - dislpay most recent label
The inbox view currently displays the top-most label in the hierarchy of labels if an email chain has more than one label. It should display the label assigned to the most recent email, the one actually displayed in the inbox view. The one relevant to the email entry right next to it. For example the most recently received email has a label L but previously there was a label A assigned to one of the past emails from the same sender. Label A is displayed incorrectly where a more recent and more accurate label L should be showing. Label A is not relevant to the email at hand at all.
Practical example:
Use-case example:
I have different custom domains, each has a different label. Receiving email from the same sender groups the email into one chain. If the same sender sent an email to more of my domains, they get different labels correctly, however they do not display correctly. The top most label is displayed with a (+more labels) next to it - not the most recent email's label.The inbox view currently displays the top-most label in the hierarchy of labels if an email chain has more than one label.
