Limit the number of chances a non (Non-Protonmail) User to enter the password !
One of my friends told me about proton mail and sent me an encrypted email, so i got a link and then went on to the log in page and found out that my friend forgot to send me the password. Well i texted him and in the mean time the password hint said 6 digits so i wrote a simple brute force program and opened the mail. Simply because you guys forgot to limit the number of times a user can enter the password :)

Download all mail and attachments
The ability to download all mail and attachments associated with a PM account. This would be useful for keeping mail even after the 1 GB limit is reached -- it could be deleted from PM's servers after it is downloaded to a local disk. Once downloaded, security (encryption) would be the responsibility of the owner.

Possibility to download all attachments at once and compressed
Dear ProtonMail team and dear all,
As a Thunderbird and Apple Mail user, I find very practical the possibility to save all the attachments at once (most often as a *.zip file). Do you think compressing multiple attachments is doable on your servers? Or would it be possible to have a function to download all the files at once (for people who forget to zip/compress it first when they send them)?
Thanks a lot for your hard work and incredible service so far!155 votesProtonMail now allows users to download all attachments within a message: https://protonmail.com/blog/protonmail-v3-12-release-notes/.

No Recycling Username: The privacy of the user must be protected all the time! Forever!
I think that it's very important that a username can't be recycled after some time that is not used.
For example:
- outlook after 1 year recycle and reassingn the username
- yahoo after 6 month recycle username and reassign it to a new user
I think that is very important protect the privacy of the people, and recycling username is a risky practice.
Yahoo in past has created a privacy concerns for the practice of recycling username of email address that are not used.
Read this and you will understand:

Don't require two factor auth on trusted browser
Once I've entered a 2FA code in a browser, it would be good to have an option to trust the browser and not require the code next time.
The Android app already seems to do this - it only required a 2FA code the first time I signed in, but the browser requires it every time.

App selector within ProtonMail
I am unsure if this presently exists, but I think it would be beneficial to have the calendar and the contacts open in individual tabs so one could easily switch between the applications of mail, calendar and contacts without having to close the other tab.
79 votesWith the new ProtonMail, you can easily switch between your ProtonMail, Proton Calendar and Proton Drive using the app switcher. The contacts widget is also easily accessible within ProtonMail. Give this a try at mail.protonmail.com today.

Gracefully handle plain text emails following conventions
There are lots of popular email clients/front-ends out there (eg Thunderbird, Sylpheed and even gmail) that follow a time-tested set of conventions for handling plain text mail.
Protonmail currently doesn't follow many of those conventions.
One example. When you reply to a message, the original message should be be block quoted with angle brackets and prefixed with a little header like this:
On <date>, <email_from_field> wrote:
Quoted line 1. Something something.
On line 2 I say something about something.Plain text emails should be a first class citizen in ProtonMail!

Hide some default folders (e.g. drafts, spam...) from the sidebar
I would like to have an option to hide some of the default folders from the side bar and put them under a "more" drop-down menu or something similar. And an option to re-order default folders would be nice as well.
Secondly, most of the time I don't want to see messages I've deleted, in the "All mail" folder. A toggle to show and hide trashed emails would be great.
53 votesYou can hide folders you don't use often in the web version of Proton Mail. Expand the "More" section and drag them here.
We've also planned to let you hide spam and trash emails from All Mail.

Trash and labeled emails
When a labeled email is sent to the trash it should also be removed from the label folder. This would eliminate an additional step on the user part to remove label. Sending an email to trash should not keep a labeled email in its label folder.
