Yeah, I considered E2EE. Even set up PGP keys in Thunderbird and installed https///mailvelope.com . For E2EE to really be viable, your correspondents have to comply, and none of the people I email with have any interest. I even email with someone on proton, and they always reply to me in the clear.

I mean, as far as I'm concerned, if not for all the websites that ask for email to register, I wouldn't be using it. No personal comms go via email.
