I want to use a distribution list feature to forward mails directed at all@my-custom-domain.tld to my family members. Several workarounds are not a fit:
a) in the forwarding feature, the recipient is not allowed as a condition so I need to forward all mails. Conditions are only sender, subject, attachment. (related feature request: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail-calendar/suggestions/47517764-add-the-recipient-as-a-condition-for-auto-forwar)
b) a sieve filter doesn't work, since it can't forward (related feature request: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail-calendar/suggestions/48561584-add-a-forward-email-option-to-filter-actions)
c) I can't change the subject with a sieve filter (editheader is not supported) so the forwarding feature would pick it up.
Only option left is to create a separate account for each distribution list and forward all its mail. But I'd rather not create another proton mail account for this.
EDIT: I discovered I was wrong and workaround a) works for me: If you only want to forward emails sent to a single alias, you select that alias as the "sender". Proton will forward only the emails for this recipient (to:, cc:, bcc: are all considered).
The problem in my tests was, that I had sent the test emails from the same Gmail address as the forward rule target. Somewhere in between, the email is dropped. Presumably by Gmail to avoid endless forwarding loops. Thus, better run your tests from a third account.
