Forwarding email from Proton Mail
It would be great if we had the option to forward email to other email providers. services.

Thanks to your feedback, you can now automatically forward emails sent to your Proton Mail account to any email address: https://proton.me/support/email-forwarding
Email forwarding is available for everyone with a paid Proton Mail plan.

Our business hinges on privacy. UNFORTUNATELY, we just discovered that we cannot forward our customer service support emails to our CRM platform! This is a non starter for us. I don't what you are working on, STOP and turn on auto forwarding. I pay serious money to support your platform. WE NEED auto forwarding. PLEASE

I just migrated from Gmail but if this isn't resolved I'll probably have to migrate back.

Unless I don't understand auto-responder (sending email to the receiving email) , this is not what this request asks for.

I'd like to be able to forward emails within my protonmail organisation.

3 votes from me for this, I was amazed when I discovered that I can't set up a forward for a single email address after moving domain email to protonmail and paying for a year.
We use liveagent for ticketing and lots of automation, everything comes to to a grinding halt when customers reply until their messages are manually forwarded one at a time.
I asked protonmail support if anything can be done with the Bridge with hope that I can install it on a web server and possibly use it to forward email but still await an answer.
It's a shame because everything else has worked out fine and within a week or so I have referred a dozen or more free account sign ups and two professional so far.
Please add this feature and in the meantime please provide a workaround.

It could be defined as a rule or filter

An Idea: If a mail belongs to a defined category or is from a specific sender, add an option to auto forward it to another e-mail address

I just signed up for "Professional" expecting business-class features. Shocked that I can't setup forwards for email addresses that represent system alerts, interfaces to other systems like ITSM products (helpdesk/ticketing), etc. PLUS am trying to move away from a expensive forwarding service used by contractors, family, etc. for which I don't manage their emails - i.e. they have their own email but I want them to have whomever@mydomain.com. Is there a workaround?

Any news on this? It is a must to have forwarding capabilities.

I want to forward an email that contains attachements automatically with the attachements. Before I can forward the whole email to someone else I first have to download the attachements of the first email and afterwards attach them to the email.

I'd like to way to setup a rule that automatically forwards emails from a specific sender to an outside email address. In reality, I want to send a text to my phone when an email comes in, so I'd like to forward the email to an SMS texting service.

Setting to have emails that are received by one of your protonmail address to automatically forward themselves to another protonmail account.
Plus option to have your replies to the emails sent back through the original email address.
This is for someone who needs to change the name of their primary address for work and clients, instead of having to update all clients, there emails will be forwarded to the new correct address. And responses can be from the new address or back through the address they emailed.
Thanks !

please add autoforwarding functions. Maybe a good solution is to have a folder autoforward.
i.e. add email to a specific folder and it triggers an auto forward to certain email addresses.

For the love of Pete, please implement this feature. I can't move from Gsuite until this is in place. We integrate with Zendesk and need to be able to forward emails from ProtonMail from our support mailboxes to those special Zendesk email addresses, but can't do this with ProtonMail. Seems the only solution we have currently is to have Apple Mail running on a dedicated server with mail rules forwarding the email.... YUK!!!

Oof, yeah I'm a paid user but this will hold me back from moving anything else onto protonmail. I just assumed this feature existed & was surprised to find it missing. I only occasionally need this but those times I do need it it's critical. In particular I use this to forward emails to an SMS gateway (to send me a text) for when I'm awaiting really time-sensitive messages I want to make sure I don't miss.
Missing this feature will eventually push me to cancel my paid account & move elsewhere.

I just took a Premium account with DNS but I already have regrets because of this missing feature (along with lack of mail redirect on the DNS config)

Five years since this request was lodged. Can you confirm if this functionality is planned or not? It will save us a lot of time having to come here and continue to wonder.
