Category View introduces a simple way to organize emails by type

It wouldn't be possible for me to overstate how much I dislike this feature. It's one thing I can't stand about Gmail and from what I've observed, iCloud has this now too. I'm wondering if people actually find this more useful than a hindrance. I mean, I have spent days with several email addresses creating my own filters so I get not everyone can do that. But the way this is typically implemented just seems like another spam mailbox that no one's going to check.

I assume they will but if Proton doesn't have a way to disable this, I am out.

Manage newsletter subscriptions

What would actually be cool is a dedicated newsletter app. I use BigNews as an RSS reader and newsletter reader. They give me an email address just for newsletters. It's fantastic.

I’m in a similar boat. I always disable this feature.

But I’m also pretty good at avoiding junk mail or unsubscribing from newsletters. So I guess I’m not the target user for such a feature.

You think they would lean in hard to that core constituency...

I need more than the 25 mb limit for email attachments, my dudes!

kent@feddit.dk · 16 pts · 1y

That's not really a Proton Mail limit - if the mail is too big, it'll just be rejected by some other mailserver on its way, even if Proton allowed it through.

And Proton would get a lot of support cases from people asking why the mail they sent to a Gmail account was returned...

Even if they open it up a lot of other places still limit 25 meg ingress.

That's a job for Dropbox or a web server or WebDav or any one of a million other things designed to move large files.

25mb was a large file like 30 years ago. Now it's like a couple PDFs with some pictures in it

rumba@lemmy.zip · 8 pts · 1y

Be that as it may, email is still a bad candidate for file transfer, and a lot of third parties have restrictive limits on file size.

This is how Google solves it. Would be nice to have that integration between mail and drive.

Oh my bad, I must have missed that. I used mail without drive for the longest time and only just recently started using drive.

When they going to give us support for sending with an external SMTP account?

stinerman@midwest.social · 2 pts · 1y

I use the mail bridge so I can use Evolution to manage email. I'd love something similar for Calendar.

If I subscribe, can I have more than 25 mb limit? No.
