What's everyone using for email sending?
You can use it headless too. But only with a x86 CPU. For that i followed this guide. If you are using an arm CPU (e.g. Raspberry Pi) then i would suggest this application in order to send mails via your protonmail account.

Protonmail and i2p
If there ever were any plans I never heard about them. I did try and add I2P support to a ProtonMail bridge but it was rejected because the maintainer frankly didn't seem to understand what it was, which confused me. He seemed to think I had added some kind of WebUI(Which I hadn't) and not POP and SMTP over I2P support(Which I had). https://github.com/emersion/hydroxide/pull/199

How to sync my Thunderbird calendar with Proton
Nope, no sync possibilities available. The alternative Proton Mail Bridge, Hydroxide started looking into CalDAV support - but that effort seems to have stranded.

ProtonMail bridge on FreeBSD
Since I posted this, I was able to get the go package working by applying a patch. It is still not clear to me how I can manage my bridge passwords, though. How do I expire one of them ? Can that be done on the ProtonMail website ?

Mail addresses are just aliases?
You can actually send but it is a bit complicated and you need the protonmail bridge, or https://github.com/emersion/hydroxide
-
CalDAV support for calendar?
I know the hydroxide project started looking into this a couple of years ago too - which should be able to do CardDAV, but it seems that the CalDAV effort stranded too.

Mail has saved over a thousand draft emails to the wrong folder
The way I eventually solved it was to create a custom script in Go (using the emersion/go-imap library) that could interact with the IMAP server, retrieve all of the emails and then checking the headers and then moving them to the bin. Took about 60 seconds to process 44,000 emails and remove over 1,000 drafts that were in the wrong place.

Bridge and Thunderbird Trash
They are going to replace go-imap with gluon. That's an effort which has been going on for quite a while.

Proton Bridge: Message UIDs are not stable / possible data loss (deletion of wrong messages)
Yeah, this really need attention now. I'm spotting the go-imap (which seems to be the real culprit) replacement being worked on, which is great! But, u/ProtonMail and u/bartbutler, please push all you can internally.

Our ProtonMail Adventure – A Five Act Drama
they seem to blame go-imap (https://github.com/emersion/go-imap). at a quick glance the library itself doesn't seem to have an open issue describing the problem.
curious if that author's (deprecated) protonmail bridge hydroxide (https://github.com/emersion/hydroxide) has the same problem.
