One thing to keep in mind is that if Google's indexer visits /r/the_donald, it will encounter a quarantine message, and will not see any of the individual posts. So, Google's search engine can't even see the list of recent posts to see the "Merry Christmas" post.
(Google did completely de-list /r/the_donald for a while in the past, though. That was enough for me to start shifting over to using other services, such as hosting my own e-mail.)
It's crap. I'm now searching for a new service that's faster and less annoying. The free version doesn't do nearly as m uch as gmail
One HUGE issue with protonmail.com is that you cannot search the contents of your emails, you can ONLY search the subject line. They have a technical reason that doesn't make sense to me, because I am a programmer and know their reason is not true (not a real technical limitation). So this business decision is stupid and I'm leaving when I find something better
i guess my point is it's good enough for now, if you don't need your contacts app (only stores emails, not phone) or searching email message text
A ProtonMail subscription lets you access your e-mail via a locally installed mail client, such as Outlook or Thunderbird. It involves installing a separate program called ProtonMail Bridge which handles communication between their server and the client software, taking care of all the encrypting and decrypting.

It's not a simple problem as their primary design point is encrypted communications. If a server can read your email to conduct a search then it would be a possible attack vector. I agree half a decade to develop it is a bit of a stretch though.
I'm completely self-hosted for e-mail. It was a nightmare to get up and running, and there's occasional instances where other e-mail series block e-mail from me because my server's a little guy (in other words, same profile as a spammer's e-mail server).

What email service did you switch to? I'm still stuck on google for that.
I like protonmail.com

Protonmail here as well--Encryption is key. Encrypt all
