It's still a completely pointless cludge, and another thing that can break. For no reason. No reason at all!
I really wanna like and use Proton. I think some of the people behind it are great. I wanna support Swiss companies (I miss the place dearly). I don't mind that it's a bit more expensive than many competitors. BUT I WANT IMAP ACCESS without some crazy converter stuck in between me and my email.
1) That's patently not true. It's their special flavor of encrypted email that's not compatible with IMAP.
2) I value IMAP far far far more than I value their special flavor of encrypted email. If they'd let me turn the latter off in exchange for IMAP without the crazy converter, I'd have chosen Proton when I was cutting Google out of emails.
