Same here, the search was horrible and eventually caused me to move away. Using mailbox.org is a much more pleasant experience.

Thanks for your feedback. We're planning to re-do the search implementation completely as it needs a major overhaul to quickly search larger mailboxes.

You are conveniently ignoring the comment mentioning your bad E2E implementation and commenting on other comments. Why?

Anyone could have registered an account with the name "Tutanota". It does not make sense to converse.

The account is 8 years old and did a 'Show HN' of the service.

Right. I didn't research the account too well, my bad. However the account also has little karma and this triggered my suspicions (shrugs).

Trust in accounts like Tutanota seems to be rather informal. Perhaps it works anyway.

Do you have a rough timeline rolling out a better search? It's the biggest issue I have.

There's no exact ETA as we haven't decided whether to do import or improvement of search first. Regardless, it is one of the next to-dos on our list. You can track our roadmap here (we're going to update it soon): https://tuta.com/roadmap

Just so you know the original team behind that site moved to https://www.privacyguides.org/en/email/

We don't list StartMail because it's not really zero knowledge (if you look at their "vault" system it's basically a LUKS container which is "opened" when you login server side). The author of PTIO puts no effort into reviewing/reading or understanding how any of the recommendations work.

Disclosure: I am one of them, the old privacytools website now is mostly an affiliate marketing portal. More info about that can be found here: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/about/privacytools/

Interesting, thanks for the heads up, this has somehow passed me by. I loved privacytools.io in its prime, I think reputable sources for this kind of information must exist. I'll look into privacyguides.org as a replacement for it.
