Sorry, I misspoke. Protonmail isn't webmail, it's a web based email
client just like Gmail, but with some significant improvements. If you
can use Gmail on a browser, you can use Protonmail on the same browser.
I heard about it in an article on Internet privacy in the New York
Times. For use by us mortals, for sure.
Hi, using Protonmail here (full disclosure: I am a paying customer, no
other interest/involvement whatsoever in Protonmail), the web interface
requires javascript for login. There is a "bridge" feature available to
paid users (in beta for Linux) [1] which can be used to get full
end-to-end encryption with various mail clients (like Thunderbird) [2].
I don't think it fits the OP goals, but aside from that it is a very
good encrypted email provider IMHO.
As you can see I find gmail also perfect for publicly available mailing
lists like this one, or various "garbage" grade mail subscriptions, I'd
rather have them handle the spam than me...
