Getting Started With: ProtonMail

ProtonMail is one of the most reputable and innovating secure and private Email services available. It offers a solid free tier, and several outstanding paid tiers depending on your needs. The support PGP, forward-secrecy, zero-access, and very strong encryption options, including a way to encrypt messages outside of their system of servers.

If you’re using another “free” Email service like Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook then you should consider switching to a more secure option like ProtonMail.

Very well organized and informational. Another great video. I enjoy your descriptions and explaining on why and how these things work in conjunction with ProtonMail. Also, explained why it was so safe. Keep up the great work!

[jerryarnold]

Well explained, thank you for the video.

You seem to have a good knowledge of Proton but please help with this problem I clicked "Forgotten Password" and to complete the procedure had to recall "last known password used". I could not do so and now my complete encrypted account is unreadable in that it stays encrypted so I have now a situation in which I can use Proton only as a normal conventional email system e.g. Google, outlook, AOL, etc. Proton Support won't assist even although I have told them the new password that I have - I still don't have "last password used". What options do I have?

Where do I go to resume my import to avoid cancelation?

When you use a mail client bridge like with Apple mail, do the emails you send go though the Proton mail servers when receiving mail from other email providers?

[stevejarvis]

BUT do Proton Mail really off a FREE service. I looked at this video and a couple of others and because you said they offerred a FREE email service I signed up. They also say on their website that they offer a FREE email service, and I signed up around 2 weeks ago but two days ago got an email from them saying I`d only gotten a few days left of my trial period? I`ve written them an email querying this but no response as yet.

Is there a way to have emails go to a specific folder without using an alias? How do you mass delete on the app?

[kjbrocky]

Can I email with protonmail to non-protonmail users just like normal email? I've heard that you can choose the lock/key code or not. I'm confused..Thanks!

What happens if I pay for it, then create aliases and stop paying for it in the future? Will my aliases be deleted or something?

[familygrant]

how can i block another emailer on proton mail?

I'm a complete novice, and watched cause I'm interested in the product. The posts I read seem more knowledgeable than me. However, tge only thing I can say is thanks for the information. Also, can you slow down your information on the different fields on the proton app? It was for me way too fast to absorb.

This is just an example of why we recommend a private and secure Email provider, such as ProtonMail or Tutanota.

I was a member of Proton until June the 1st last year when it's suddenly no longer work because I have done nothing wrong only told the truth about 90 domination after watching hunting Hitler on Sky history 2 and I would like to go back

protonVPN, protonmaiL, protondrive, they're tracking you, reading your e-maiL, reading the digitaL data, sharing your data to 3rd party and governments.

[DEWorDEWnot]

Miserable to watch. you went thru way to fast making it difficult to even freeze the frame to see what you are talking about.

[Flat_Earth_Addy]

Protonmail is the WORST email service!..
