  1. Matrix integration

    The matrix protocol is going to displace email.
    If protonmail wants to stay(become very) relevant, they should look
    for ways to bridge their email platform to the matrix platform.
    See matrix.org to find out about your next communication protocol.

  2. Informing ProtonMail users about potentially unsafe messages

    Hi,

    I would like to see this feature added to ProtonMail.

    When a ProtonMail user sends email to other email service or receives email from other email service, then ProtonMail will indicate / highlight...
    a) When a received message was not encrypted (TLS)
    b) When composing a message to a recipient whose email service doesn't support TLS encryption, or when the sender’s domain couldn't be authenticated. An indicator before sending a message to a service that doesn't support TLS encryption

    This will be useful, as the user can find out if email (sent / received) is encrypted in transit when…

  3. Encrypted Contact Form for Websites

    A contact form that we can embed on our websites so visitors can send encrypted emails to our ProtonMail addresses. The form could automatically encrypt messages before sending them, and have the usual fields like name, email, subject, and message body.

    For example, the form could be inside an <iframe> that's served over HTTPS.

    The embed code would need to use some kind of token instead of the actual email address, to protect the address from being disclosed to email harvester bots. Also, for greater security, the form could refuse to load if it detects it's embedded on an insecure…

  4. Make Archive action more prominent in (Android) app

    It's pretty cumbersome to archive email in the Android app, and yet archiving can be important (more important than cluttering the inbox or deleting). Could you make it a directly accessible option?

  5. Security - auto lock out of ProtonMail with timer limit.

    In the browser when using ProtonMail, it'd be nice to have a timer that auto log-out or locks the access to the mail system after a predefined amount of time - also linked to Sleep status of the computer / smartphone system. This would limit accidental access to the mail system even if there's access to the physical hardware (=computer / smartphone).

  6. Integrate LibreOffice Online

    LibreOffice Online is a web interface for LibreOffice (previously OpenOffice)

    It's getting ready and it would be an incredible asset to ProtonMail once it gets a stable release.

    You could extend your security and privacy oriented service with an Office application!

  7. Printing entire conversations that occur in one e-mail chain.

    How it stands now, if you have more than one email in a conversation you have to print each one individually-- which is fine if there are only a few emails in that chain.

    When you have a lot of messages in one conversation it is a little tedious to have to print each one.

    I understand that you can have the conversation displayed as quoted text and print that, but it would be more efficient to have the option to print the entire conversation the way Gmail does.

    Thanks.

  8. Encryption of all metadata

    If Protonmail is to be serious about privacy, I don't understand why all metadata isn't kept solely in encrypted form. I just signed up for Scryptmail and any data is kept in encrypted form, unreadable for any third party.

    I don't see why it would be necessary to keep for instance the senders or subject titles in encrypted form when Protonmail doesn't support POP3 or IMAP.

    The problem is that otherwise e-mail is inherently insecure, because if for instance a governmental entity wants to see your account, while they won't have access to the content of your e-mails, they can…

    We have given this quite a bit of thought, but at the present moment, it is not clear the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages.

    The biggest problem is search. Encrypting all metadata would break metadata search entirely on the web client as there is still no efficient way to handle search of encrypted data within a browser.

    Secondly, metadata encryption’s value from a privacy standpoint is also somewhat dubious. Because we ultimately must deliver the message to the recipient, we must know who the recipient is. At the current time, there still isn’t any proven and viable way to work around this.

    Metadata encryption is an area of continued research for us, and when the opportunity arises and the technology for doing this matures, we will definitely implement it in ProtonMail.

  9. Sort mails by star

    I would like to be able to sort my mails, so that the mails labelled with an star is on top of the mail list.

  10. notification synchronization

    The mobile email notification is great, but it needs to automatically be removed when you interact with the email on another device. In other words, I get a notification on my phone while sitting at my desk. I open the email and delete it in my browser. Currently the notification stays on my phone. It should be "unpushed' after I interact. This is may seem minor, but I have multiple devices (as do most people) and without it the notification is inaccurate and subsequently pointless.

  11. An option for having unread messages on top of mailbox

    This feature would allow users to have by default the unread messages on top allways, rather that having to select the show unread from the menu.

    I am usually more interested in having access to my unread messages, even if they are old.

  14. Zapier Integration

    Generally it would be great to see ProtonMail available in Zapier, particularly with support for Triggers like when new Contacts are found in ProtonMail.

    Example use case:

    Paid user, using ProtonMail for both personal and business and with respective alias for each. Whenever an email from a new Contact hits the Inbox, addressed to user's business alias, user wants to then do X (where X could be any number of things, using other services).

  15. Rollback the ugly new app icon color

    Please roll back the app icon color to the original darker blue. The new faded color (I dont think it even has a name) is horrible, and constantly looks like the app is not installed properly / trying to install, because of the subdued hue.

  16. Automatic Successful Delivery Confirmation

    After sending an email with protonmail, you will see a message that the email was sent, but that doesn't mean it was actually delivered or received, (which by the way is not the same as opened - that information is private to the recipient).

    I have sent emails with protonmail that arrived much later than they were sent, even weeks! Appointments have gone amiss because of this. Also, there is always a chance that an email will never arrive at the destination.

    It would be good to have a visible SIGN or checkmark in the sent email list…

  18. Custom Expiration / After-Date Trigger for Received Emails

    I've always wanted the ability to set a custom expiration for received emails, and maybe ProtonMail can make this a reality.

    The idea is that you could set a date&time at which an email you received would be automatically archived, deleted, or labelled. This would be incredibly useful for things like email offers w/ expiration dates (so that they are deleted after they expire) or past events (so that they can be automatically archived after the date has passed) or labelling emails for followup (e.g., if someone said that they would get back to you in a week).

  19. Font size options on iOS (including increasing the size)

    An option to resize font would improve usablity very much (iOS version).
    Basically you should do more interface polishing; even this form is clumsy on an iphone.

  20. Use quantum hard cryptography

    The general consensus currently is that nation states will have quantum computers capable of breaking today's commonly used asymmetric cryptosystems in the next 15 years[1], and potentially before then. And there is currently at least one major nation state with limited quantum computing capability actively using it to accelerate a small class of attacks.

    Last year NIST released an advisory on quantum computing, and expressed urgency in the matter[2]. The NSA has also released an advisory[3].

    The fact is that several nation states are collecting nearly all data on the Internet in bulk and storing it. In a few years…
