Tips and considerations

  1. Security: Be cautious when setting up email forwarding, as it can compromise the security of your ProtonMail account. Only forward emails to trusted email addresses.
  2. Spam filtering: ProtonMail's spam filtering may not work as effectively when forwarding emails to another account. Be prepared to deal with spam emails in your primary account.
  3. Email size limits: ProtonMail has email size limits. If you forward large emails, they may not be delivered to your primary account.
  4. Delivery issues: Forwarded emails may not be delivered to your primary account if the recipient's email server has issues or blocks the forwarded email.

By setting up Proton Email Forwarding, you can streamline your email management and keep your ProtonMail account organized while still being able to access important emails in your primary account.
