  1. Enhanced Folder Functionality

    Every other major (and many minor) email clients have hierarchical folders - organizing emails is not a discretionary function. Proton Mail should have:

    1. Nested folders (critical)

    2. Unlimited nesting (important) - a reasonable compromise would be 2 or 3 levels of nesting.

    3. Drag n Drop sorting (critical)

    4. Search options that reflect hierarchies (all folders / sub folders / this folder) (important)

    5. Color inheritance (from the top-most folder in a group (not important)

    I can't fully migrate off my other emails until this basic functionality is supported.

  2. Sieve 'fileinto' automatic folder creation

    Sieve filters can be used on some server software (true for Dovecot, for example) to automatically create the folders specified in the 'fileinto' command if they do not already exist.

    Maybe I'm mistaken, but it doesn't seem to be the case for Protonmail.

    Why it is useful (in my opinion at least):

    • If you share sieve rules between several servers, automatic folder creation helps sharing these rules without having to create the folders on all the mail servers.

    • It allows dynamic folder creation based on email metadata (e.g. sender, subject, ...).

    • It could also be combined with the regex sieve…

  3. customize toobar when viewing message

    When viewing a message the top toolbar shows:

    • mark as unread
    • add label
    • move to folder
    • trash
    • dropdown

    It would be great to be able to customize what options appear up there. For example, I will more likely archive something over adding a label to it, so I'd rather have the archive button more accessible.

    Thank you.

  4. Data retention policy per Folder

    Allow specifying Data Retention Policy per Folder, such as:

    1 Month delete, 3 Months delete, 6 Months delete, 1 Year delete, 3 Years delete, Keep indefinitely, Custom (N days/weeks/months/years)

    Allow overriding the retention policy per message; for example, usually messages in a folder may have, say, 6 Months delete policy, but mark an individual message to Keep indefinitely.

    These should be available for all Folders, including but not limited to Trash and Spam.

    Default all folders to Keep indefinitely, unless otherwise specified by the user.

  5. A custom sidebar / menu

    Changing the menu / sidebar elements. Curently there are:
    - Inbox
    - Drafts
    - Sent
    - Fav.s
    - Archive
    - Spam
    - All Mail

    • Folder / Labels -- Folder 1 ...

    But I would love to add a shortcut to "filters", because I need to change them very often. Also rearranging the menu or at least enable/disable certain elements would be useful to enhance my workflow.

  6. add a send button at the top of 'compose mail'

    Could you add a second send button to the top of my mail draft?

    If not: can you move the send button from the right bottom corner to the left bottom corner? Or let me change the position via settings?

    Thank you.

  8. Filtered message expiration

    ProtonMail has an existing message expiration feature. It would be helpful to expose this feature to Sieve and/or the basic filter system. This would allow automatic deletion of ephemeral notification emails, like package delivery notifications.

  9. SMTP/IMAP dedicated Subscription

    It would be great to support SMTP/IMAP with a dedicated and a very low fee plan.

    Or maybe with a one-time fee, only for this feature.

  10. check sending address

    Problem: I sometimes send from my default address when I don't mean to because I forget to change it.

    Solution: Optional dialog to double check the sending address before the message is sent.

  12. Popout composer window

    It would be great if the composer window could popout to its own window, not just be popup or full screen size inside the window. On a laptop, it conceals too much of the inbox messages, which are nice to consult when writing an email.

  13. Allow emails to be sent to your .onion adress

    While being able to login via onion services is great, making it possible to send emails to example@protonirockerxow.onion, like what riseup allows, would reduce the amount of leak-able metadata.

  14. Browser Quick Login with PIN

    I would like a similar experience in the browser that we have with the mobile app. Set an expiration where the user can still unlock quickly with PIN.

    A trusted computer browser stores the main logon cookie with no expiration. But this cookie only has an encrypted blob that cannot access the mailbox alone. The 2nd cookie set to expire in X minutes/hours must be combined with a user supplied PIN, and that will decrypt the non-expiring main cookie blob, which logs the user back into the mailbox.

  15. When Archiving, Mark as Read

    Along with making archiving from the message viewer on the app easier, when those emails are archived they should be marked as read.

    Thanks!

  19. Apply custom filters in Spam.

    Custom Filters don't work when the email is already in spam folder.

    Example: Set a filter to move all emails from test@test.com into the trash but since it has already been moved to the Spam folder, I'd have to whitelist it first in order to apply filters to it. This is counterproductive and generally Custom Filters should work across all folders, no matter what.

  20. Expiring emails for particular folders

    I don't think this exists currently... It would be great to have an ability to customise a specific folder to archive or delete emails automatically after a time period. For example, a folder for Newsletters which are interesting enough to not delete immediately, so I pop them in a Newsletters folder, but any email in that specific folder, I can get them to automatically be deleted if they're older than a year old.

    I keep most emails around forever, as some obscure emails from eons past still end up being useful in the future somehow. So I don't want this…
