Tuta is a end-to-end-encryption mail and calendar provider. They recently wrote a good blog-post about changing to european services.

      Web apps.

      For reference I work for a competing mail provider and the majority of our users don’t use SMTP or IMAP, instead exclusively using the web app.

      Personally never had to use either protocol, what’s your use case? - genuinely curios.

        Using Thunderbird as opposed to tuta’s quite barebones client:

        • delayed messaging
        • message scheduling
        • local backup of mails
        • no email import
        • desktop app failures (happens quite often to me that I just can’t log in)

        Not to mention other external QoL functionalities like a home assistant tablet being able to display a family calendar and being able to automate based off of events

          Defo some good points here that I had not thought of, am too used to using webclients. Though Tuta does have an mail import feature.

          Tuta’s discount is tempting, but I’ve also seen StartMail doing 50% off lately. Definitely feels like a good time to test a couple out, especially if you care more about UX than just encryption.

            Sadly, no calendar on startmail which is a non-starter for getting my family on it.

            Seems to be nothing really with mail + calendar + encryption + IMAP from a smaller company.

              Not sure if it’s encrypted,b but mailbox.org has email + calendar + I can add it to K-9 and Geary (so I think it does support IMAP?)?

                  I have been using mailbox’s light (1€/month) tier, which doesn’t include the calendar, so I can’t really tell you about its quality.

                  What I can tell you though, is that it has worked great with K-9 and Geary and everyone I have emailed has recieved it and it hasn’t gone to any spam folders or such.
