    you still have to trust them that they don’t save the plaintext email somewhere else before they run tbeir encryption.

    and that’s what I do. I trust that they are doing it. what better can I do? the other option is to use a provider that 100% is not doing that, which does not seem to be better. or hosting it for myself, which maybe a small minority of people are capable to do it

      Yeah, thats the issue. At some point you have to trust the provider or host yourself. I know from friends who worked at my email provider that they actually encrypt and not save it but thats a luxury not everyone has.
