Hi Jim et al

Seems like Google has adopted the idea:

though that will work with Chrome only as an extension.

Hi Jim

The setup of ProtonMail should work. However, as can be seen already, a limitation is that they rely on own server capacity.

Security and email are becoming a solid consideration is offices and homes everywhere.

The question is how personal or business security can be acquired. See attached link, to an article, that is a well laid out over view of the issues and solutions.

To have a secure email account it must be protected end-to-end. A new startup has positioned themselves within Switzerland as the country has the toughest privacy rules and they are outside US, UK or any other country's legal jurisdiction, for that matter, so they can not be forced into compliance, now or at some time in the future.
