Oddbean new post about login | logout Pro tip: if you use Proton Mail with anonymous email proxies, disable the External GPG settings. I just realized that I’ve been leaking my real email address because Proton Mail attaches my public key to all outgoing emails. It’s disappointing that Proton doesn’t do this by default, given that I use SimpleLogin and it’s part of Proton. https://i.nostr.build/jYY69.png
It doesn’t use the PGP key it creates for you???
I believe it uses your Proton PGP key when you email directly to another Proton user. It will use your SimpleLogin PGP key if you email through the SimpleLogin proxy. The feature that I’m suggesting people disable is the one that attaches your Proton PGP key when emailing non-Proton users, which apparently also includes your own SimpleLogin proxy, and that’s the feature that leaks your email address.
WTF @Proton Mail?
Um, @Proton Mail ^^
