We're here to stop surveillance by corporations like Google. That's why we replaced Google’s FCM with our own notification system. Read on to learn why this is important.
If emails are encrypted at rest, as in the cases of Tutanota or ProtonMail, IMAP cannot be used as it is. In fact ProtonMail offers a bridge app for desktop, which interacts with PM servers, decrypt the emails and offers a local IMAP server so you can use Thunderbird, etc.
ohh well, Thunderbird, KMail and K9 allow encrypting. Some people say that very few people use GPG to encrypt emails, and one can only encrypt to others also using GPG. But guess what, the same is with Proton and Tutanota, if you email to users out their services, it’s exactly the same, :(
But encryption is a different argument than non using google push notifications. It’s sort of a different topic… And unfortunately, I haven’t found a good standard way to get privacy on emails. To me, using any service, as long as not big companies, would do just fine, if you encrypt with those close to you, helping them setup GPG for encryption… But again, that’s a totally different discussion, :)

Why is that? IMAP push works well with K-9 Mail and OpenKeychain on my smartphone.
I don’t need proprietary encryption since it is useless.

I didn’t say I don’t need encryption. Proprietary encryption is even worse for people in war-torn areas of the world since it can get you killed.
Protonmail works with the CIA so definitely wouldn’t trust them unless you’re with a US backed rebel group.
