   I have found that is difficult to educate people/friends on the value of   
   private email.  Everyone seems to be happy offering their communications   
   content for free to gmail or facebook to gather and exploit.   
      
   On a brief mission to explore options, I discovered Protonmail a couple   
   years ago.  I gave it a very quick initial run:   
      
   Login success 	                Apr 23, 2018 5:28:34 PM   
   Login failure (password) 	Apr 24, 2018 1:04:15 AM   
      
     ..until I screwed up remembering the password the next day! :)   
   Obviously, my easy-to-remember-password wasn't so easy to remember the   
   following day!   
      
   I was determined to remember it, at some point:   
      
   Login failure (password) 	Apr 24, 2018 1:05:44 AM   
   Login failure (password) 	Apr 24, 2018 11:11:14 AM   
   Login failure (password) 	Apr 25, 2018 12:51:11 AM   
   Login failure (password) 	Apr 25, 2018 12:51:31 AM   
      
     ..and gave up, for a couple of years.

   Login success 	                Jan 22, 2020 8:56:25 PM   
   Logout 	                        Jan 22, 2020 9:23:31 PM   
      
     ..but I cheated this time with a pw reset.   
      
   I'm glad I'm back and didn't have to change my initial email address.   
      
   However, a pw reset does NOT allow access to previously store emails.   
   That, is actually a very smart decision. Should anyone commandeer your   
   pw recovery email address, they could request a pw reset. But once they   
   do that, your previous email content will be unavailable.   
      
   After my pw reset, I could see old emails listed, but the contents   
   remained encrypted and looked like this:   
      
    - - -BEGIN PGP MESSAGE- - -   
   Version: ProtonMail   
      
   wcBMA1wsrvPuXdKzAQf/c4LqdtGNID0Y94iWbKZItljM5d5gwSPIV0OGWIpl   
   4ymH9P/iWBskKyFp6aKZ11n/qhflHMJBD14kpIgisXNFdwBNowN8no5jybxx   
      
   etc..   
      
   I encourage people to check out Protonmail.  It is OpenPGP-based. Their   
   service is accessible via Android or iOS apps, or a web-interface. It   
   automatically encrypts email, end-to-end, between protonmail users. But   
   it also offers to provide sending encrypted email to non-protonmail   
   users via web-access with a passphrase/clue that you communicate to your   
   recipient ahead of time.  Then, the recipient can compose a reply that   
   will maintain its encrypted quality - automatically. There is no   
   requirement for non-protonmail users to learn anything about gpg/pgp or   
   have gpg/pgp installed.   
      
   Outbound emails to non-protonmail users automatically expire within a month.   
      
   They offer 3 plan levels, but the FREE plan is a great place to start   
   for your friends to get a smooth introduction to private/encrypted email.
