End-to-end encrypted email based in Switzerland, built by the team behind CERN's open-source projects. Client apps (web, mobile, desktop) are open source and independently audited. The free tier includes 1 email address, 1 GB storage, and up to 150 messages/day; Mail Plus raises that to 15 GB storage, 10 addresses, and unlimited messages.
Usage Notes
[edit]Zero-access encryption means Proton cannot read message content or hand it over even under legal request -- worth flagging for teams handling sensitive organizing communications. No self-hosting option; mail is hosted on Proton's own infrastructure in Switzerland.
