  1. Sort contacts with tags

    Can we please get tags for individual contacts? Can't add contacts to groups without an email address but need to be able to group contacts that don't have email addresses.

  2. Snooze function also when conversation grouping is disabled

    Recently the snooze function has been added, which is great. However it only works when conversation grouping is enabled.

    For me this is a strange requirement. I don't like conversation grouping, since it groups things that don't need to be grouped. Also, I want to snooze a single email, not a complete conversation.

    It would be nice to drop the conversation grouping requirement and be able to also use the snooze function when conversation grouping is disabled

  3. Enable keyboard shortcuts messages list (Proton Mail app for Mac)

    Currently when users click a message in the messages list of the Proton Mail app for Mac, then press a keyboard button, the keyboard press applies to the message in the preview pane, rather than the messages list pane. Key examples:
    * Selecting a message in the messages list and pressing down arrow begins to scroll that message's preview in the preview pane, rather than jumping to the next message in the message list
    * Pressing Delete while a message is selected does not move the message to trash, it attempts to trigger a 'delete' action in the preview pane…

  4. Update window for desktop app should identify itself

    A standalone notification window just appeared out of nowhere in the middle of my screen - without saying what is sending it.

    Since such behavior is super suspicious and could be coming from any malicious software, for precaution I had to use System Informer to check where is this window coming from.

    Not sure if this is an update 'feature' of electronjs, however, it has to be fixed. I have huge stack of apps running on my system. It's nice to understand who is whistling at the time. Could be bad ETs. :)

    Don't scare your customers. :)

  5. Do NOT display attachments from other emails in a thread in the main mail list

    Do NOT display attachments from other emails in a thread in the main mail list.
    I just paid a wrong, old, bill because the PDF bill attachment from a month-old email was displayed below the current email about a new, this month's bill.
    There is no reason to display attachments for old emails under new emails. Please remove this to only display the attachment in the current email.
    This is for the web version of Protonmail.

  7. Make unsubscribe work with SimpleLogin

    The current implementation of the "unsubscribe from mailing list" does not cooperate with emails forwarded from SimpleLogin. It currently sends a request to unsubscribe to "unsubscribe@simplelogin.co" <image>. I think it would be nice if it instead made a reverse alias and actually sent the unsubscribe message to the email address that SL forwarded it from.

  9. Disable or delay tooltips

    The current Tooltip feature should have an option to either completely disable it, or to set a delay before the tooltip pops up.

    Currently, when I select emails to delete and then move my cursor up towards the Delete button, this tooltip pops up INSTANTLY when my mouse touches the box to select all, blocking access to the Delete button.

    So I regularly have to move past the tooltip and wait for it to go away before I can click delete. This introduces "lag" in the action of selecting and deleting emails, something done on a frequent basis.

    If you…

  10. Map HubSpot IMAP to Proton Mail

    Presently, there is no way to map HubSpot IMAP to Proton Mail. This would allow the user/account owner of HubSpot to send emails (and receive) from a client contact. You can do it with Googles, Microsoft 365 and Exchange. I do not exactly want to use these Darth Vaders....

  11. Improve Self-Destruct

    Self-Destruct function is a great feature but is some space for improvements.

    1. Self destruct in 7 days (please allow us to change this default value according to preference (for example "Self destruct in 27 days", etc...). in other words, allow us to set a value for the default destruction period.

    2. Option to set a Global Self-Destruction for all incoming mails.

    3. Option to set Self-Destruction for particular folders which to overwrite the Global Self-Destruction setting.

  12. Resizable desktop window

    I have a sideways 1440p monitor for keeping things I need to watch open.
    The window of the mail app cannot be resized so that it can fit in half the height of the display. (720 pixels)
    The browser version fits fine.

    In addition, the height of the window also will not fit to 720 pixels.

  13. Not unselect mails on inbox when i enter to view one of them

    When i select more mails to delete on inbox and i click on some mail to view if i need to delete it or not, when i return to my inbox all the mails i had selected are unselect now and i need to select it again.

    I think the selection must be mantain on time when i enter on some mail and return to my inbox.

    Thank you

  14. Choose installation path for desktop app

    Hello,

    First of all, thank you for all the great work you are accomplishing at Proton.

    I really love the idea of using Proton via the desktop app, but one thing is a no-go for me :

    My disks are partitioned and my OS is isolated from my other installed applications.

    I don't want ProtonMail client to be installed in "%LocalAppData%\proton_mail" by default and wanna be able to choose another partition / disk to install it.

    I investigated a bit on the underlying installation system, which is Squirrel, and actually it seems to not allow installation path customization.

    Don't…

  15. Setting to unfold email chains

    I have a lot of forum emails (which is great, I don't want to change this). But if I haven't been keeping up with the discussion, I have to individually tap on each new message in the chain to read it.

    Moreover, unexpanded messages are marked as unread, but if I open the chain, then I consider that to have "read" the chain.

    It would be great if new messages could be expanded by default. It's a little thing, but it's driving me wild- a setting for this behavior would be much appreciated

  16. Paste unformatted text

    In Gmail one can change the font of a pasted in text to match normal look of the rest of the email. Proton only lets one change the entire email to text or normal

  17. Unlimited subfolder nesting

    I am requesting an enhancement of the existing subfolder management to allow for unlimited nesting. This would allow for organizational schemes such as Johnny.Decimal and others.

  18. Contacts: Add a functional "Correspond From Address" field

    Currently, when you open a Contact card and click "Compose", it opens a new e-mail in which the "From:" field is set to the same default e-mail address of your Proton account.

    Proposing the addition for a "Correspond From Address" field for individual contacts in which, upon clicking "Compose" on that contact, the From: field will be set to what you had set to that contact card's "Correspond From Address" field.

    Right now, you can only sort of fake this by adding a Note in the contact to remind yourself "Contact this person using X address", but you still have…

  20. Package the Proton Bridge as a Docker container

    It would be nice if we could run the Bridge as a Docker container instead of installing it locally. Just route our mail clients through it across multiple different systems.
