    It’s cheaper, and supports IMAP, you can use PGP yourself for encryption.

    Both have their pros and cons depending on your use case

      I don’t understand the usecase for tuta and proton. Their “automatic encryption” only works for people also with those providers if I am not mistaken, otherwise it just uses the same method as PGP (password that you have to send the recipient).

      It seems to me that for 99.9% of emails going through the account, it is not any more secure that other providers like mailbox, posteo, nubo, etc…

      Maybe I am understanding them incorrectly though.
