  1. XRB Raiblocks/Nano payment option!

    Add Rai (soon Nano) as a payment option. Bitcoin transactions fees are now too much, and it may take up to a few hours for a transaction to be confirmed. Unlike BTC there are NO fees for Rai, and transactions are nearly instant!

  3. Protonmail is too expensive. Offer the option to buy features for life

    I find paying 4 euros per month too expensive.
    I would suggest adding the possibility to buy more features like adding more addresses, more filters rules or more GB for life.

  4. Litecoin Payment

    Please accept Litecoin as a payment method for premium accounts and donations. While Bitcoin is a great investment asset, for normal low level payments below multiple-thousand level, Litecoin is much better. Bitcoin transaction fees are already around $5. Currently Litecoin fees are around $0.05 or 5 cents. Even the advent of lightning networks on Bitcoin will not make Bitcoin cheaper since Litecoin will also have Lightning network payments and channel costs will be 100x more expensive on Bitcoin.

  5. "Accounts that are inactive for over 3 months may be automatically deleted." Please consider altering that policy.

    "Accounts that are inactive for over 3 months may be automatically deleted."
    Please consider altering that policy. Three months is way too short a time!

    Why not 1-2 or more years instead of 3 months?

  6. Bitcoin Cash Payment Option!

    Bitcoin transactions fees are now too much, and it may take up to a few hours for a transaction to be confirmed. There's a payment system, which is nearly same of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash. Its devs have a better vision "low fees, 1 block (10 minutes) transaction confirm time." If you haven't heard of it, here (https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/58969/38618) you can see that many wallets support it.

    Kind regards.

  7. Accept Vertcoin payments for Protonmail!

    Vertcoin is one of the fastest, trustworthy, decentralized, and secure crypto-currencies on the market right now. The Vertcoin community is large, and vibrant, and many of us use Protonmail as their main email provider. We would love for Protonmail to accept Vertcoin as payment!

  8. allow us to have whatever spec compliant local-part for custom domain email addresses

    when trying to set the local-part for my custom domain email address to "~"
    I get this error message:

    "Only alphanumerics, periods, hyphens, and underscores are allowed in the local part of the email address, and it must begin and end with alphanumerics." all I can say is why?

    "it must begin and end with alphanumerics."
    this is so arbitrary! it's an email address' local-part not a username..

    for many years, I have always used ~@myna.me as my email address, before and after I self-hosted my email, I use it for all of my online accounts and and all of…

  9. do not use google recaptcha

    Seriously ... I HATE GOOGLE RECAPTCHA! Because I actively try to prevent Google tracking me (I've disabled practically every Google domain I can find using my /etc/hosts file), Google is not really aware I exist on the net. As a result, I HAD TO SOLVE TEN--count them--TEN DAMNED CHALLENGES to sign up for this site! (I'm given to understand the following things about ReCAPTCHA: 1) Google does not present as many challenges if it has seen your IP address often, which it won't for me because I actively block them; and 2) the ReCAPCHTA code sometimes presents challenge after challenge…

  10. Enable Protonmail Plus users to delete disabled addresses

    Creating a new address under the Protonmail Account should not be permanent. Needs change over time. Higher subscription levels appear to have the capability to delete disabled addresses provided there are no emails for it. As a Plus user, it appears that any address I create is permanent and can only be disabled but not deleted. If I created an email address for a temporary purpose, but now would like the slot back for a new address (only 5 for base Plus subscription), it is not possible. That address forever takes one of my 5 address slots whether I enable…

  11. Family Plan

    Visionary is way too much of space, addresses and domains!
    Normal family would use not more than 1GB per user and no more than single custom domain.
    Main points for improvement:
    - Increase the users to 10
    - Decrease storage to 5GB total
    - Decrease custom domains to 1
    - Remove ProtonVPN

    And then have price around 10EUR/month to be truly affordable.

  12. Only allow login with the username/main address, not with every address.

    Do not allow that you can log into the account with every address.

    If my account name is john.smith then only allow login with john.smith or john.smith@protonmail.com. Not with finance.john.smith@protonmail.com or any other address.

    Perfect would be if you would have the choice what address can be used in order to log into your account.

    With the current way you have to give away your login username in order to send emails. Hiding the username from the public would be an advantage, since they would have to guess your username and the password. Not only one of them.

  13. A €1/$1 per month membership that would just give one pm.me email address.

    It would be the ideal membership for those who just wanna support you but don't need any features that are not already in the free account. And I'm sure it would interest lots of people, €5 is a little steep for email when you don't need anything fancy and just appreciate the privacy ; )

  14. Accept Bitcoin on the Lightning Network!

    The Lightning Network is in beta, but it allows for instant payments (no confirmations) and almost 0% fees, provided the user has a channel open. You already accept Bitcoin... and the Lightning Network is a major upgrade to way people will use BTC to make payments. If you do it soon, you will also get a P.R. boost, as it will inevitably be mentioned in the Bitcoin media.

  15. Temporarily store 2-step verification

    As it’s already (welcome) extra work to enter two passwords, could 2-step verification be implemented so that known devices would only need to be verified again every 30 days or so?

    At the moment, with 2-step verification enabled, even a page reload triggers triple authentication, which makes the added security a poor experience.

  16. Integrate with pgp keystore for to addresses

    Allow us to provide public keys for our contacts, letting us encrypt emails to people without using protonmail "secure" email with password.

    Additionally offer search functionality for one of the well known keystores (MIT, etc) to find public keys for people you're sending emails to.

  18. Lifetime Subscription

    I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that I like to keep my number of subscriptions minimal. It's just healthy. Basically. I would pay a good amount to get a lifetime subscription on plus / pro. Thoughts?

  19. Pivx coin payment

    PIVX ( Private Instant Verified Transaction ) is a cryptocurrency that prioritizes privacy and decentralized governance. As of 10/16/2017 they will have implemented the Zerocoin protocol to anonymize transactions. The mission ( and the color scheme of purple ) of Pivx and Protonmail align and I'd love to see Proton mail implement a PIVX payment option. For more information on Pivx, please visit pivx.org.
