Client-Side Filtering to Enable Full Header Encryption
ProtonMail utilizes End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) for email bodies, though metadata and headers currently remain unencrypted to facilitate server-side filtering (I assume). This architecture allows the server to instantly sort incoming messages into folders, apply labels, manage expiration dates, or discard emails based on user-defined rules.
A potential enhancement to this system involves implementing content-based filtering. While server-side analysis of encrypted bodies is technically unfeasible due to the E2EE protocol, filtering could be offloaded to the client side. Once a user logs in and the client decrypts the message locally, the application could execute comprehensive filtering rules and synchronize the resulting organizational changes back to the remote servers.
Furthermore, transitioning to client-side filtering offers a significant security advantage: it enables the hardening of server-side storage. By removing the server's need to access headers for routing, Proton could implement full-message encryption (headers and body).

Additional Snooze choices
Please consider extending the options to snooze emails. I use an Outlook plugin that offers me many choices and I use these all the time, every day. This is the only blocker than stops me moving from Outlook to Proton Mail entirely and it's terribly frustrating that the list of options cannot be added (seems like a rather basic feature request).
The options I have with the Outlook add-on include (via one simple dropdown)...
Tomorrow Morning / Tomorrow Afternoon
Minutes; 15 / 30
Hours: 1 / 2 / 4 / 8
Days From Now: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 (with the day of the week listed, as a visual cue)
Weeks: 1 / 2 / 4
CustomThank you.

Add the ability to delete emails only from a specific group
Add the option, when clicking to delete a group, to also delete the email addresses in that group. Why is this necessary? First, it is a common option in many other contact managers. Second, there are times where contacts are being sourced elsewhere and periodically refreshed via importing from that other source. Currently, the only option is to manually search for every email that is in that group and delete them individually. This is very, very inconvenient.

Support older MacOS versions (e.g. Mojave 10.14.6)
Is it possible to support older OS versions with a desktop app? Even a reduced feature set would be fine.
My OS version is MacOS Mojave 10.14.6 for several reasons (stability, performance, etc.).
I still like the convenience of a desktop app to handle my various email addresses for quick access (versus web interface).

Hard wrap lines at custom widths
When writing plain text email, I typically want (or sometimes need) to enforce a maximum line length/column width in my email to ensure it is easily readable. Most commonly this is 72-80 columns, but can occasionally vary to 100-120 columns. To my knowledge, Proton Mail doesn't provide a way to hard wrap lines in this manner. So I currently have to write these emails in a separate text editor which does hard wrap lines before copy-pasting it into Proton Mail.
This is obviously quite tedious, and it would be a lot easier if Proton Mail included this feature. Perhaps there could be a setting which sets the default column width at which lines would hard wrap. And options to adjust or enable/disable it when writing a particular plain text email.

Backup & Restore
t's too bad that ProtonMail doesn't have a GUI Backup & Recovery
Tool, instead of having to recover and install backup messages
using the Terminal and DOS or Bridge which makes it more difficult and tedious.I had no problem saving messages backup as .eml files to ProtonDrive as
a backup; restoring and importing backup messages back into ProtonMail
should be just as easy.ProtonMail should have a more intuitive way to restore and import backup
messages back into ProtonMail.6 votes -
Make importing .VCF files easier to find
Make importing .VCF files easier to find. I can never remember how to do this, and it's not in Settings. That happens when my contacts icon is hidden, and I rack my brain to try to remember how I did it last time. It takes too many clicks. Can you make this easier/faster to do in the UI, perhaps? What about drag 'n drop, or adding it to the left frame in email, as Contacts are closely associated with email. (This is the Microsoft Outlook way of doing it.) Thank you!

Monero is a privacy friendly cripto money. Proton should add monero payment.

Customize Email Reply Chains
Oftentimes, I have clients who will reply to an existing email chain instead of composing a new message. We should be able to break apart email reply chains into new chains and change the subject in future replies.
For example, I have an email chain with the subject "Meeting on July 14th". The client replied to the email for ideas about our upcoming meeting on October 6th. I wish to take this single email and remove it from the July 14th chain and start a new one for October 6th.

Be able to use "hide-my-email" of proton pass into proton mail in the "sender" dropdown
In "proton pass", when we create a hide-my-mail, I would like to be able to make a mail with "Proton Mail" in the senders dropdown...
Actually when we create one "hide-my-mail", we have to wait someone to mail to this alias, which then allow us to use the alias.
I'd be cool if all the created aliases in "proton pass" could be available in the list of senders in "proton mail" as soon as a hide-my-mail would be created.9 votes -
Add Holocene calendar support
To say we are in the year 2026 is to erase the first cities, the first seeds, and the first stars we named. It cuts the human story in half.
The Fix: Holocene Calendar (HE)
We add 10,000 years to the current date to honor the complete human era. 12,026 is the honest year of our civilization.https://holocene.info/

Reword the alias tip.
This is extremely minor.
The current tip reads
```
When you sign up for a newsletter, use an alias instead of your email address. Your identity stays hidden, and you can disable the alias at any time.Aliases cannot be used when an extra password is enabled in Proton Pass.
```I feel like the last sentence is misleading? It should say something along the lines of "cannot be managed within proton mail when extra password is enabled".
I can perfectly use aliases when signing up for newsletters with extra password enabled.3 votes -
Turn off "set as default" in email
I get a big "set as default" banner at the top of Proton mail any time I open it. I can dismiss it but it comes back with the next restart of the application.
I am not ready to make Proton my default yet and it would be nice to be able to dismiss this permanently, or even have it pop up once a month or something.
This is in Windows 10.
Thanks!17 votes -
Attached Photo's - files size shrinking option before sending
With my old Blackberry email client on android- which I still use - I can upload photo's and then it will give to option to shrink the file size to medium or small in order to prevent large photos to be send. This prevents going over the 25Mb file limit per e-mail and also doesn't make your storage capacity fill up unnecessarily quick.
I really miss this in many e-mail clients. Would save so much work

Backup all events or current event in Calendar
Offer to backup either all events, or per event. There would be a toggle. This would allow you to restore a previous event, in the event you change it after, or need to restore it. The space needed to store these backed up events, would use your proton drive space.

Preserve the entire message body; ability to view text/plain or text/html by default
Currently Proton Mail strips the text/plain content from the body of a mixed content email (e.g. email with both text/plain and text/html). Proton Mail should preserve the entire message body intact. Besides the uneasy feeling I get knowing that email messages are parsed and stripped of content, stripping the
text/plainpart forces us to view the HTML version of an email which is undesirable from a security/privacy standpoint, not to mention my general distaste for HTML in email. In any case, email message content should not be parsed/stripped (inspected?) and users should be able to configure any email client to view email messages with either text/plain or text/html by default.Currently Proton Mail strips the text/plain content from the body of a mixed content email (e.g. email with both text/plain and text/html).

Go directly to the folder when using the 'M' shortcut
It's just ergonomics, but it would be nice to be able to go directly to the folder's name when using the 'M' shortcut in the mailbox. Currently, we have to type the first letters, then use the narrow button to go down to the folder's name, then select it with the space bar and click enter to perform the action. It would be better if we could just type the first letter and click Enter.

Remove forwarding recipient confirmation
I am using a third party application having a catchall mailbox. I would like to forward all emails with specific conditions to this mailbox. However, this is not working as the third party application won't confirm the confirmation request sent by Proton. Can we have an option to not ask for confirmation from the recipient?

Composer placement and reply experience
On desktop, the Composer has two modes: Normal and Maximized. The issue is that when replying to a message, the Composer overlays the email thread. This makes it frustrating to:
1) constantly scroll or minimize the Composer to view previous emails for context, or
2) manually drag the Composer to the left side for every reply.Suggestions:
- Short term: Allow users to set a default Composer position (left or right side of the screen)
- Mid term: Redesign the experience so that replies are embedded in the email thread by default, using the pop-up Composer only as a fallback or a standalone setting option.On desktop, the Composer has two modes: Normal and Maximized.

API/IMAP integrations for third party security solutions
If Proton is looking to create a sovereign EU platform for businesses, then Proton will need to expand its access to third parties to meet security and compliance requirements for businesses.
An API integration that would allow companies to perform as examples DLP, Email Security, process GDPR requests, etc are needed to meet the lofty and admirable goal of making Proton the EU's sovereign digital infrastructure to replace Google and M365. If Protong wants toensure the safety and security of EU's technology stack, this will be needed for feature parity to the US leaders in the space.
