How can we improve ProtonMail?

← ProtonMail

timezone

Setting timezone instead of taking it from system.
I think there is a real privacy issue of including the system timezone on emails for webmail (please help us understand if this is not the case).

Could this please be based on the timezone the user-specifies (or default to system/browser if none is specified).

    Is the timezone really included in the header that gets sent? I can see that when I hit 'reply' then the the message being replied to says "so and so wrote at date and time" without reference to timezone. For privacy purposes, I guess that could just be redacted?

    But if it's easy to do, then I could see myself setting the time for ProtonMail (and later for ProtonCalendar) when it's feasible to travel overseas again.

    Totally agree! Would be great to select the timezone for printing purposes. Also, for travelers this would be a really great improvement.

    The Calendar from Apple, for example, allows me to set the timezone on the top right corner of the screen, would be great to see this option in ProtonMail as well!
