    That’s not an allowlist though, SimpleLogin was on a denylist, possible because of high rates of spam. An allow list would be if they only allowed @gmail.com for example. If you have your own domain and set it up to use Proton Mail, you shouldn’t have any problems.

      Well… More or less. They specifically told me that I needed a “public domain email” and that it couldn’t be encrypted. I read their ToS and it wasn’t written anywhere. They didn’t sound like they were too tech savvy and I had to insist before I got that answer. They are most likely just a call center with a manual to follow.

      What I bothered the most is that they allowed me to change the mail. The kept sending me (wanted) ads there and I could login into their site. They even kept charging my subscription. Until I tried to pay for extra tickets. That broke their system and got stuck. After that I couldn’t even use the tickets I already had in my account from the subscription.

      I’m not proud to admit that I finally caved and went back to my old mail for the moment. I even had to show them an ID (which at least partially defaced before) so that I could use the tickets I has already paid for
