       | fixing this. While someone wants to stop you from using encrypted
       | emails, we are committed to not let that happen. Thank you very
       | much for your patience and for weathering this storm with us.

       | had to contact them through reddit... at least i got a refund.

       | Short of hosting your own email, I can't think of other email
       | providers as secure as tutanota. They tick off a lot of boxes:
       | open source, hosted in Germany, encrypted mailboxes, DKIM/DMARC
       | support...
       | 
       | The only feature that might give people pause is that their
       | search functionality isn't great. I have pretty low volume of
       | emails to my personal inbox so it doesn't matter, but it might be
       | frustrating to use as a work inbox.

       | If like me you never heard of them before:

       | Tutanota is an end-to-end encrypted email software and freemium
       | hosted secure email service.

       | One would hope encrypted email providers would know better than
       | to force logging in to facebook to read their posts.

         | Maybe it's an a/b test? It works for me without signing in. You
         | can also check their twitter page

       | Weird fb quirk that I never noticed, if you click on the link it
       | goes to the post. Then if I click 'go back' it doesn't go back
       | here, it opens the fb front page. Then I click 'go back' again
       | and I'm here. They somehow Load the front page and then direct me
       | to the post so quickly I don't notice it when I'm going to the
       | post. I'm on iOS Safari...
