Can you make Folder Filter Quantity & Modification possible?
While your automatic setup of folder filters is very nice, I now get "too many filters" if I try to add any. Also, there seems to be no place to find and eliminate filters that are no longer needed. In Thunderbird, though I have to set up filters, I can see which are present, where they are directed, and can modify or remove them. And so far, I've never hit a 'limit'. Some kind of similar arrangement would be nice. Side note: because of 'too many filters' I now have to 'move' email manually every time, so the filtering function is no longer used, much to my chagrin.

Remove secret-service requirement from Proton Mail Bridge (Linux)
Proton Mail Bridge for Linux's requirement for a secret-service adds complexity to the installation process. Even using the
passutility as suggested, GPG also needs to be installed and a GPG key generated to initialize the password store. Removing the secret service requirement would simplify the installation, reduce the 'weight' of the installation (number of steps and installed packages), and simplify what needs to be backed up. Storing the vault key is also a security hazard as it makes the data (credentials, email messages, etc.) recoverable for anyone with the home directory or a backup of the directory.Using a KDF (e.g. Argon2, PBKDF2, etc.) would simplify and improve security, since the key is never in the server's persistent storage. There may be other cryptographic constructs with similar or additional properties.
- Use the IMAP/SMTP password as input to the KDF.
- The derived key(s) are used to encrypt messages and other private data directly, or used to wrap a data encryption key (that, in turn, encrypts the messages).
- With this change, a sync would only occur after the first IMAP or SMTP connection is established from the mail app, but most clients should either stay connected or connect relatively often. Syncs with the Proton servers could continue as long as the service is running. Or for even greater security, stop (and wipe the password/keys from memory) when the client disconnects.

Let us set email expiry through fitlers without converting to sieve
I would like to use the filter UI to set an expiry time for emails. This would be equivalent to setting something like this in a sieve: expire "day" "7";
While this is already possible with sieves, sieves are complicated, and once you begin using a feature that is only available through sieves, you can only edit it as a sieve. The UI is much more intuitive and I'd love to see this feature exposed through the UI.

Assign emails tasks with priority
Being able to make an email a task with a certain given priority would be extremely helpful in organizing emails. And then being able to sort those emails according to their task priority, so that the emails with the highest priority appear on top. I use it every day in Outlook. Proton should offer it too.

Allow to print email thread
In an email thread, it seems that to print the conversation, one would need to print each email individually. It would be easier and also more economic to have a print view and button for the whole thread (perhaps similar to how Gmail solves this).

Feature request: ability to change main account address
Hello,
currently, in Proton Mail, it’s not possible to delete the email address used during the registration process. It would be very useful to have the option to switch the entire account to a different primary address, and remove the original one if it’s no longer needed.
This would give users more flexibility in managing their online identity, for example when the original address becomes obsolete or no longer fits their current needs.

Setting: Automatic Outgoing Email Expiration Time
I would like the option to set a default expiration time for all outgoing emails.
While it's already possible to manually set an expiration date on individual messages, it's easy to forget to do so before sending. A global setting would allow users to automatically apply an expiration period (for example, one year) to every email they send.
Users who enable this feature could still adjust or disable the expiration time on a per-email basis when needed. This would provide a convenient privacy-focused default while maintaining flexibility for exceptions.

Support for custom Return-Path / Envelope-From in Proton SMTP
Currently, Proton SMTP requires the Return-Path (envelope sender) to match the authenticated sending address. This makes it impossible to use dedicated bounce addresses such as bounce@domain.com, which are required by many business applications, including Odoo, CRM systems, ticketing platforms, and newsletter tools.
Please add support for a custom Return-Path / envelope sender while still enforcing that the domain belongs to a verified Proton Mail domain. This would enable proper bounce processing, DMARC-compliant email workflows, and integration with common business software without requiring external SMTP relay services.
This feature would significantly improve Proton Mail's suitability as a business email platform.

I would like to be able to highlight text in an email and select "Search in Browser" or "Translate with ***" (in my case DeepL
I will often see a reference that I want to follow up on or research. I'd like to be able to highlight it and then right click to use my default browser to search online. Similarly, if I get an email with foreign text, I'd like a Translate function.

Passwords for Password-protected emails selected by recipient
Currently when sending Password-protected emails to non-proton recipients the sender has to select the password, notify the recipient of the password, and manually record the password for future correspondence. It is tedious and has two major issues.
1. The first issue is if you want to send the message to multiple people they must both have the same password.
2. If a recipient receives password-protected emails from more than one protonmail senders, they would need to track and keep a log of passwords for each and every sender.
A solution would be to have the recipient select a password to decrypt the email link and store the password on a server in the same manner that passwords are handled for any other email (proton to proton, etc).
Because the process of sending password-protect emails is tedious, it is rarely used (by me at least) and any email sent or cc'd to a recipient is on the gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc. servers in plain text where companies like google can glean the content. Furthermore in the US, Section 702 of the FISA act allows the government to gather texts and emails from overseas without a warrant. Protonmail originates from overseas (Switzerland).

It would be great if the search icon/bar could be implemented at the bottom next to the write button and not at the top right corner, such as in the iOS system like in Mail, Settings, etc.

Enhanced filter and newsletter management
Someone already suggested dynamic filter creations and it's an amazing idea. I want to expand it and suggest something similar for newsletters.
The pop-up saying "This message is from a mailing list should include 3 actions, and after one is selected, the pop-up should never appear again for that newsletter:
- Accept
- Unsubscribe
- Filter (this prompts the user to select what to do with these emails like in the filter creation flow and automatically creates a filter for the newsletter)7 votes -
Temporary Disable a SMTP token & the ability to monitor usage
The only way to disable a SMTP is to delete it.
It would be nice to have a method of temporarily disabling a token to stop its use for sending mails OR any mails received from a specific token user can be temporarily redirected into a black hole like /dev/null.
What is the need.
An application or a server that is setup to mailout with a token could go rogue and spew out a lot mails. Configuring postfix with a token on a linux box gives users freedom to do want they want with the built-in mailers like sendmail and mailx. I've seen a production system rendered useless because of mail services going rogue.When a token user goes rogue you haven't a clue where the mails are coming from. There is nothing in the mail client to monitor the actions of token users, its only for devices that use the account passwords. There is nothing in the innards of .eml file that indicates a source of the problem. The only forensics you have are the contents of the mail message and there may be no clues in them. It would be nice to have some monitoring.
If you are unsure what token is spewing out all the mails you have to delete tokens until it ceases. All deleted tokens require all the apps to be reconfigured with new tokens. Not a good idea in a commercial environment.

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.

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.
