As the saying goes if it seems to be good to be true it is. But I wanted to be hopeful maybe just once more that maybe something could be great. Encrypted email with an unlimited sized inbox ?!!? Yes please !!!

Welp sadly it seems it’s once again to good to be true.

I made an account just to see how it was. I was immediately greeted with link to buy their premium for a year, using my initial email I selected. When I finally figured out how to say no I was able to use my “backup option” for free. I found this all too off putting. But no matter I wanted to keep going, maybe it’s just bad UI.

Moved onto my tracker test using a standard browser. And sadly it failed immediately. On the main info site atomic mail tries to use 6 trackers. Within the login / inbox they try to throw on another 3, one of their own scripts (maybe innocuous) and two from cloud flare. Those trackers are Google related !

For the privacy email they claim had no tracking I found this sinister.

I immediately deleted my account.

Unless someone can speak up to what those trackers are and why I shouldn’t worry I’ll recommend everyone avoid it.
