    Comments about mailbox as an Alternative to Proton Mail

    Mailbox.org is a partial replacement for Protonmail. It offers a fully functional email solution (email, calendar, contacts), but with the added benefits of PGP encryption support (you can handle the keys or let them do it). It also allows you to send links to people who don't use PGP if you want to send private messages. For the encryption, it's a bit like Protonmail. For everything else, it's like a privacy-respecing Gmail alternative.
