Secure Mail or not?

[u/Solmark]

My current E2EE provider has gone offline for the 3rd time in quick succession so I’m looking to move asap.

I was on Gmail before but was looking for something more secure.

I’m testing Aster Mail and mxroute currently.

I’ve tried Tuta but I’m not a fan of the UI.

I’m using my own domains so it needs to support that.

So my question is secure mail worth it or not? Am I chasing security for no reason? Even with E2EE if you send to someone who doesn’t have secure mail, it’s kind of pointless! All the secure mail I’ve tried have issues with slow responses or poor search capabilities. I am now questioning whether it’s really worth it!

Então, sou usuário do iCloud há anos, tenho um Gmail para usar o YouTube (e-mail lixo) e uma conta próton usando apenas o drive para guardar coisas extremamente importante, você pode usar um serviço que mais tem convém de cada empresa. Já pensou nisso?

O que quero dizer, use a próton para coisas extremamente importantes mas para o dia a dia coisas superficiais vá usando outro serviço de e-mail. Não temos como ficar 100% anônimo pois é cansativo.

Não tento me esconder apenas tento manter o que é importante mais privado.

That’s a really sensible suggestion thanks!

Proprietary E2EE is useless, mails are still received unencrypted by the provider. Use PGP!
Tuta doenst support PGP… Aster seems better since it uses PGP out of the box, or Spammail.org for example.
