Beware, does not support local (encrypted) backups.<p>If their servers disappear for whatever reason (legal issues or hardware problems), you end up with 0 e-mails. Nothing.

&gt; Tutanota is the end-to-end encrypted mail client that enables you to communicate securely with anyone.<p>Is this promising end-to-end encryption over email even if one of the two parties is not using Tutanota?

It seems this is browser only. Would be great to have Thunderbird integration.

They nuke accounts created using Tor. That&#x27;s not very privacy friendly.

What extra do the encrypted messaging services offer on top of say, forcing a regular mail server to only user tls1.2. Must we all move onto a single provider?<p>I&#x27;m just curious why that&#x27;s not good enough where sysadmins collectively pester whoever they require secure communication with to also have a tls1.2 mailserver. Would that not be job done?

So yet another &quot;end to end encrypted&quot; email &quot;solution&quot;, where both ends are controlled by a single vendor.<p>There are already two, count them, TWO, existing, open, well-understood ways to both sign and encrypt email between two parties: PGP, and S&#x2F;MIME.<p>Currently, the UX around setting up and using each of these tools is.. less than stellar.<p>Now. Just go with me here. What if all the people who keep claiming to have &quot;solved the encryption problem&quot; by locking everyone into their own little silo, instead of doing that, WORKED ON SOLVING THE USABILITY PROBLEMS?

Curious why they went with Cordova instead of React Native for their mobile apps.<p>Are there security considerations between each solution that they took into account when deciding?
