Unusual login notifications

If somebody attempts to login to my account from an unusual location, I'd like to receive an email to a couple of email addresses: 1 my proton email; 2 an alternate email (e.g, gmail). Another alternative is receiving an SMS.

    Some pointers regarding this feature
    - The alternate email address could be the recovery email address
    - Any attempted login of the account username will be notified via email and/or via push-notification. (similar to Google)

    It doesn't matter if you have 2FA enabled you want to know if there is anyone trying to login to your account.

    I see receiving notifications via alternative methods as ↣Important.

    Regarding the 2 comments,

    No, not everyone has 2FA enabled (i'll even go so far and say; some, might not even know what 2FA - IS.)

    I like your moniker (you may run across an imposter as you surf the net)(Not trying to pretend to be you, I just like the moniker)👍
