Comment on Proton’s Lumo AI chatbot: not end-to-end encrypted, not open source
EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThere is no way to retrieve your mail using IMAP on a regular client if they’re encrypted on the server.
That is probably why you can’t retrieve your emails using IMAP from a regular client.
And Gmail can retrieve your mails from proton using IMAP. It’s even in their own (proton’s) documentation.
I don’t think it can. Where in the documentation did you find that?

An online search brought me here : getmailbird.com/…/access-protonmail-com-via-imap-… which did looks like a documentation page about how to do exactly that. Obviously, it has nothing to do with them, and the actual details makes no sense the lower you get in the page. I’ve been had :)

You’re right that they can see the emails in transit if you’re not using encryption, but they never said they can’t. They are as secure as they can possibly be, and are honest about what’s secure and what’s not. I would leave Protonmail at the first sniff of trouble but I just haven’t seen anything that concerning.
