Does it work after reboot? i've rebooted a few times, no joy. i've looked at ~/.xsession-errors and there's nothing pertinent. (though i did see an error that the dropbox binary is not found, which raises another issue: where might i edit things that autostart? dropbox did, though i've long since deleted it, and protonmail bridge does. might be useful to remove it from autostart and then start it manually -- in fact, i'd prefer to do it that way. any idea how to go over the autostart stuff and prune the stuff i don't want?) at this point i'm not sure whether it is kmail or protonmail bridge that's causing the problem. the error thrown: "The connection to the server DrippingWithIrony was unexpectedly closed or timed out. It will be re-established automatically if possible." I am not certain that it ever gets established. the issue is this: the only linux mail client officially supported by protonmail bridge is thunderbird, which i'd use if it supported maildir, but it doesn't and i see no reason to think it ever will. configuring protonmail bridge is actually fairly straightforward -- both incoming and outgoing use 127.0.0.1. imap is port 1143; smtp is 1025. there is an elaborate password, which i get from protonmail bridge itself. starting the bridge from a terminal throws this: dep@dep-desktop:~$ Desktop-Bridge DEBU[0000] main init goroutine=1 pid=12511 pkg=init INFO[0000] init error: <nil> goroutine=1 pid=12511 pkg=init and it seems then to start. i do not know, though, what normal behavior would be -- could be that it's working just fine. would be nice if there were a privacy-oriented email service that used gpg or the like and didn't read/scan/track email. best i can tell, there isn't, which is why i use protonmail. dep Sent with ProtonMail. Because privacy matters.
