Slightly different markets: Proton and Tuta are both end-to-end encrypted, Posteo is not.
There’s a lot of downsides that come with E2E encryption for email. I have some domains with Tuta, and some with Posteo and Mailbox.
neither of them is e2ee when emailing anyone outside their ecosystem.
One of the nuances of E2EE, but it doesn’t eliminate the benefits.
I think it is harmful for them to advertise as e2ee email because people who don’t understand email or encryption will think their email is encrypted when it very much is not
When I am sending an email to someone who is not on Tuta, there is a disclaimer saying my email will not be fully encrypted.
There’s so much nuance in what is meant by “E2E” and which encryption methods are used that marketing alone is insufficient, the product needs to make it clear. IMO, Tuta does a good job of doing exactly that.
