Yes, it's really unfortunate. I tried using this for mail sent to myself before but it didn't work.

you should be able to get it to work without approval sending to @X.com from @X.com iirc.

Please no. I just started using ProtonMail and plan to lower my usage of gmail... I don't want other clients held to an arbitrary standard of email

ProtonMail may not be the best choice if you're a stickler for standards. Their service unapologetically works only within ProtonMail. Send an e-mail to someone with a different provider and they get a link to a https view of the email.

This is a bad thing. Gmail needs to be e-mail and nothing more or this is EEE.

Why can email not evolve? Structured data in markup works well on the web. It's open and could be implemented by any client.

It's only ever going to work for gmail users. For people who read their email in text-only clients this will never do anything.

You know, people who use serious email, not to send pictures of balloons and 96-pt Happy Birthday in pink on purple text.

Thanks, though I set it up yesterday mostly for receiving, I don't plan to send anything from it

Is there another email provider that isn't hotmail, gmail or yahoo mail with good prospects at the moment?
