Separate Notification Email and Recovery Email Addresses
Please separate the notification email and recovery email fields, so that it is possible to set each one individually. For example, a user may wish to set up a notification email address that cannot initiate account recovery. Another user may also wish to set up a recovery email address that does not receive notifications for incoming emails.
That would be useful to use with a less-trustworthy email provider or a less-secure account, so that users can receive notifications without worrying about a malicious actor resetting the user's ProtonMail password from the notification email account. Thanks.

Yes!! I 'm a new user. I just received notification in my gmail account (which I had set up as what I thought was ONLY password recovery) that I have a new proton mail message. If I had wanted G**gle to know my proton email address I would have advertised it!!!
I have removed that email from "reset/notification". So now I have no reset email available to me.

This is also useful for domestic abuse situations, where one person is routinely breaking into the email accounts of another household member.

I would love to see this implemented. In my case, I would like to see notifications come to an e-mail account that I read on my mobile phone, but never access the recovery e-mail account from the phone.
