That's my problem with proton as their marketing would lead you to believe their email is completely encrypted. Their marketing really needs a asterisk that tells you exactly what is encrypted and when.

Exactly.

It's true, your emails are end to end encrypted...if they are sent to another proton mail address. But your emails from friends, family, your doctor, etc...are all very much not encrypted.
