![]() ![]() Personally, I use non-anonymous services only but I use ciphering. If you don't care about ciphering, I guess it could be ok. However, the benefits they promote only come via a Javascript that perhaps no one except them really studied and their system is not email (the "ciphered emails" only exists in their server). Tutanota say they do not use PGP because this does not cipher the subject, does not support forward secrecy and does not support post-quantum encryption. When Tutanota users want to send email to non-Tutanota users, the non-Tutanota users receive an email with a link to Tutanota's website to enter a password and read the "ciphered email", in an interface that is a subset of the interface visible to Tutanota's users. Tutanota do not "block" IMAP or POP3, they just do not support these protocols, the access to a Tutanota mailbox is only possible via a web browser using their Javascript, or via an app which is based on Element (so include Chrome).īesides, their "ciphered emails" are not really email as they are only on Tutanota's servers. it also blocks imap/pop3 protocols which is one reason why I am suspicious of them. Tutanota has a non-free server last I checked. And vice versa.īut probably you meant some other encryption technique, about which I will certainly be much less knowledgeable. The trick being that once they have encrypted it, only you (or whoever managed to access your private key) can decypher and enjoy the plain text content, so they might be stuck with a 'sent' folder full of unreadable messages they sent you. You need to send your public key (if this is the encryption technique you are referring to) to the other person you are communicating with, and they need to use that public key to encrypt the messages they are sending you. Not sure what makes you think so, but it sounds contradictory to me: E2E encryption means that your email provider has no interference with the encryption process whatsoever. ![]() ![]() > pop3 and IMAP don't allow for true end to end encryption in cases where the provider does not have a copy of your encryption key. Can you remember any incantation for that one? I'm afraid he's gone, 'Access denied' circle of Hell style.
