Multiple same emails grouped together limit
Add a toggle so you can adjust the amount of the same emails being grouped together, before another group of the same emails are created. As far as i can tell, the limit is 100, then a new group is made.

Remember last used account
I have more than one protonmail account (some for voluntary work and a private one for myself).
When I go to protonmail.com, then I'm automatically logged in to the first account (it seems they're sorted alphabetically).
I then switch account, read / write some mails, and close the window.
Later, when I come back, I am again logged into the first account, not the one I used last.
It would be more convenient if I was logged into the last used account.
Bonus feature: Some users might want to always be logged into a default account. You could make it an option to be logged into a certain account always or the last used account.Off-topic: It's way too difficult to give feedback.
1: You enter the subject, thinking that this is the entire message, and you don't want to click the button to post a new topic, because it's not your entire message.
2: When you're about finished writing your message, you find out that you need to register an account to post - you can't use your Protonmail login; eg. you need to create a new login with different password rules, so you'll want to save the message you've written (copy-and-paste), before you register
3: After registering, you need to sign in again. This could have been done automatically when you've confirmed your email address.I have more than one protonmail account (some for voluntary work and a private one for myself).

Add switch to prevent trash emails being sorted
When adding a new filter and "applying to all", it sweeps up previously deleted emails. Add a switch to the filter creation to explicitly exclude Trash during filter creation. Clearly any new mail will filter correctly once the filter is set up.

Less Resource-Heavy Web Browser Interface for Proton Mail
Proton Mail's inbox was heavy enough on my Celeron N4020, hogging all 100% of the CPU when I opened it on Mullvad Browser along with Brave Browser for Gmail to set up a recovery email on my Proton account and crashes for several times.

Add a Proton-specific bank or sounds that can be played when specific senders send emails, or when other criteria are met.
Add a Proton-specific bank of sounds that can be pre-selected to be played when specific senders send emails, or when other criteria are met. User uploaded additions to the list should also be permitted within user accounts. Explore similar rule-triggered flash-screen or pop-up options to accompany sounds or to operate silently. And of course, don't forget the quick pull-down on-off toggle switch!

Pull-down or placement-editable button to sequester suspicious emails and/or emails known to contain trackers that cause problems.
Pull-down or placement-editable button to sequester suspicious emails and/or emails known to contain trackers that cause problems. Tracking emails can cause system glitches and have (for me) caused the Proton Mail App to dump repeatedly until the problem email was removed. Additionally, users should be able to report and send emails to technical support [zen desk or tech person or automated system] to be processed for problems in sime fashion.

All Mail (User Defined)
Instead of only having the option to exclude Spam and Trash from ALL MAIL, have every folder listed in settings with on off switches to include or exclude each folder in/from ALL MAIL.

Warn before closing app because of ctrl+W
I close browser windows using Ctrl+W. Sometimes I think I'm in my browser, but I'm actually in the Proton Mail desktop application when I do the Ctrl+W, and then Proton Mail immediately disappears.
Can you optionally display a box that says something like, "Do you really want to close the Proton Mail app?"

Disappearing Calendar Events
In messaging contexts, it is well accepted that there may be times where you want to use disappearing messages, even despite the fact that your messenger (i.e. Signal) provides a secure, e2ee platform. Ultimately, this is because those messages, for whatever reason, are not worth keeping around past a certain point. And in many activist communities, messages or group chats could be used to correlate activity, attribute actions, or perform social network mapping. People then decide that the safest thing is to let those messages disappear to reduce the potential impact of a future "breach" of one participants' device.
Calendar events can be very sensitive, too. They can give times, dates, locations, and lists of people all attending a common event. Why do they need to stick around forever? Most users are never going to wonder "what meetings did I have on this day two years ago?". While at the moment, an enterprising privacy advocate could go back through their calendar and remove long-expired events, that current process would be tedious and time consuming. Why not just take a page from the messaging apps of the world, and allow calendar events to be defined with expiration times? When a user makes an event, they can say "it's at this place, at this time, and in 6 months, this event will delete itself from my calendar".

Calendar pane dedicated column instead of overlay
When in the web view of Proton Mail, you can show the calendar by clicking the icon on the right side of the screen. The problem is, this causes the calendar to overlay all the controls on the right side of the screen. For users that'd just want their "today" view open all day, this is annoying as it prevents use of those controls. Instead of overlaying these controls (bad UX), the calendar column should just push the mail UI to the left while it is open.

Please allow us to deactivate aliases from the proton mail web interface!
When I want to deactivate a compromised alias, I have to do it through Proton Pass. It would be really nice to be able to do it from the Proton Mail interface.

Keep the subject visible in long conversations
I tend to open a new message and sometimes forget the context so I have to jump to the top to read the subject.
This happens mostly with GitHub issue notifications.4 votes -
Global busy calendar link
Proton Calendar already allows you to mark many calendars as contributing their events to the user's busy time. Unfortunately, this is only visible within the Proton organization and there is no easy way to show people outside of proton whether you are busy or not.
Proton Calendar should add an ICS link that can be shared in order for others to subscribe to your availability. The busy link can be passed on to colleagues or appointment software such as cal.com. The ICS file combines busy times from ALL calendars that the user has marked as showing themselves as busy.
Alternatives considered:
It is possible to share existing Proton calendars with a limited-access ICS link, but:
1. this is a per-calendar thing and not a user-busy-time which combines information from all busy sources; thus requiring the audience to possibly need to subscribe to many of your busy links, thus leaking information on the different context of separate busy times.
2. it is not currently possible to share a limited-access ICS link for proton calendar subscriptions; those would need to be shared elsewise.
3. there may be issues with Proton's current ICS links in that they are read-only and may require manual updating. I am not sure on the details, but note the following message on cal.com:[Do not write to the ICS feed] If your ICS link is read-only (e.g., Proton Calendar), check the box above to avoid errors. You'll also need to manually update your calendar for changes.

Send Receive keyboard shortcut
Send and receive is so important that I cannot believe there isn't a shortcut with the 'spinning arrow' for feedback.

Make Proton Mail follow the "Cache Directory Tagging Standard"
If it's possible, it would be useful to follow the "Cache Directory Tagging Standard" in Proton Mail, so any directory containing a CACHEDIR.TAG file will be skipped from backups.
If cache data it's not necessary I don't see a reason to backup it;
The CACHEDIR.TAG file helps tools like Restic to exclude certain cache dirs2 votes -
I have filters and folders for multiple emails. When I receive mail addressed to more than one email, I need then to go in each folder.
I have filters and folders set up for multiple emails. When I receive mail addressed to more than one of my emails in the same account, it ends up going to the folder associated with the last filter. I need the email to go in each folder.

Allow UI zoom for desktop application
As a user, I want to be able to zoom into and out of the reading pane, so I can more easily see the text of my emails.
Rationale: Presently, the application seems to default to desktop resolution but the UI and text are very small and I cannot increase them. Being older and having poor eyesight, this makes it very difficult to use the desktop application. In contrast, using the webmail interface, you can easily increase the zoom as needed to make things readable.
