I'm a FastMail customer. Your response is troubling to me in that it didn't answer most of tptacek's questions. It's troubling enough for me to start looking at other email providers. :-(

I would like FM to provide something akin to Google's advanced protection program. Those of us who are careful not to lose our login credentials should not have to suffer a weak recovery process for the convenience of those who do. I personally would rather opt my account into a stronger recovery process even if I can't access my account for several days or a week or more.

I have now responded in more detail - at the time I was busy trying to spread the love around, and also support my team as they dealt with the support requests and digesting the response on here.
