Proton Mail has enhanced its service to facilitate user migration away from Gmail, offering improved privacy controls. The updated features allow users to send emails from their Gmail address within Proton Mail and manage their Gmail inbox, including attachments and contacts. Proton aims to encourage users to eventually switch to Proton Mail addresses for logins and delete their Google accounts, emphasizing that this move prevents Google from profiling users based on email activity and enables end-to-end encryption for messages between connected accounts.
