Mailbox with encryption of incoming emails. It works with IMAP clients, and I own the keys. Other security minded people can also send end2end encrypted emails without needing to use the same provider.
But this still relies on PGP right?
Yes. And as far as I know so does Proton under the hood.
The only advantage Proton has is that it encrypts the email headers for emails between Proton users, but the drawbacks don't make up for it IMO.
