Hi all, a couple of years back I moved to Proton on a 2 year plan. Then the CEO started spouting Trump stuff. I cancelled at the time but the subscription is only now up for renewal.

I have moved everything across to Tuta recently, but I don’t like it, so I’m looking for further suggestions.

Why didn’t Tuta work for me?

  • No function to auto-forward emails to another email address.
  • No bridge or IMAP so I can’t connect to Paperless
  • Mobile app is janky - when I swipe to archive, it sort of sits there for a while as it talks to the server. And just generally it feels slow like it’s waiting for the server for every action instead of backgrounding the requests.
  • Web app is weird. It doesn’t even have an archive button, I have to use “Move -> Archive” making it slow to go through my inbox.
  • Importing emails is only available on their most expensive plan. Weird to not want people to move to your platform? (it also couldn’t handle 15000 emails, I had to load them 1000 at a time)

Things I want:

  • Must support custom domain
  • Must support catchall
  • Must support forwarding an email to another email address based on the “to” address
  • Must not be run by dicks (e.g. Trump supporting CEO or Proton, union busting like Fastmail, and no big tech) - as close as possible at least
  • Should have some method to connect to my self-hosted Paperless NGX (e.g. Proton’s bridge, or just IMAP)
  • Should have emails encrypted from provider if possible - not sure if anyone other than Proton or Tuta do this.
  • Should support GPG
  • Should allow importing email history from previous provider
  • Should have a nice web/mobile app or allow IMAP. Bonus points if I don’t have to use the Play store.

Honestly I’d put up with the janky app if Tuta had the functions I want, I mostly just want my money going to some provider that aren’t dicks, but having the provider not be able to read my emails would be a bonus.

Anyone got suggestions for me?

    I haven’t seen much about it, but I’m trying out Atomic Mail and it’s been pretty good so far. Would be curious on others’ thoughts though.

      Hmm it only started in 2024 so not much history, and they seem to have many AI features. Without more info I’d be a bit worried it was vibe coded given the timeline, push for AI, and that they don’t seem to be a known company who could have invested in it.
