Let users choose which emails trigger notifications (by sender, recipient/alias , label, or folder)
User story:
As a Proton Mail user, I want to CONTROL WHICH EMAILS TRIGGER PUSH NOTIFICATIONS so that I’m only alerted about messages that require my immediate attention.
I want to enable notifications only for certain senders, recipients/aliases, labels, or folders, so I don’t get distracted by unimportant emails.
I also want the option to REVERSE this logic—receiving notifications only for emails that aren’t labelled or sorted, such as personal or unexpected messages.
Ultimately, a filter system for notifications, giving users the same flexibility they already have for organising their inboxes.
This would make notifications more relevant, REDUCE NOISE, and ensure users never miss important messages.
Platforms:
High prio: iOS, Android.
Low prio: web, desktop.

Currently it is only possible to partially achieve this with rules that send emails to folders with no notifications. However this means that I need to actively check those folders to see if there is a new email.
I am cutting down on notifications for non important emails but I still want to see the other emails in my inbox when I check the app.Ideally I would also that certain filters don’t send a push notification but still show in the notifications bubble in the app icon. So I can see there are emails when I see my home screen

I have missed several time critical/limited email sent links while traveling since shifting to Protonmail. Apple has VIP notification why can't Protonmail do it,
I use Proton apps for security on my mobile and desktop hardware.
