Versions:
ElectronMail 5.3.6, developed by Vladimir Yakovlev, is an unofficial desktop client that wraps ProtonMail’s web interface into a standalone application, giving users a native-like way to manage encrypted email without opening a browser. Built on the Electron framework, the program preserves ProtonMail’s end-to-end encryption and zero-access architecture while adding convenience features such as multi-account support, offline message storage, persistent logins, system-tray integration, custom notification settings, and keyboard shortcuts. Released as the twenty-first public iteration since the project began, version 5.3.6 refines automatic updates, streamlines the account-switching workflow, and tightens sandboxing to keep decryption keys within a protected renderer process. Typical use cases include privacy-focused individuals who want ProtonMail always at hand, remote workers who juggle several encrypted addresses, journalists needing offline access to sensitive correspondence, and anyone who prefers a dedicated window that respects dark-mode preferences and OS-level spell-check. The software falls under the “E-mail” category of communication tools and runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, requiring only a ProtonMail account for authentication. Because it embeds the official web client, every security patch or feature ProtonMail rolls out is immediately reflected inside ElectronMail without user intervention. Although unofficial, the open-source codebase is publicly audited, allows optional proxy routing, and stores data locally in encrypted form so that no plaintext messages touch the disk. ElectronMail is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
