If the Bridge always has to exist, it would be great if Proton gave it more love. We don't have any WebDAV support right now, which means I can't see my calendars in GNOME Calendar or my contacts in GNOME Contacts. JMAP would be a great addition. Adding support for various IMAP RFCs would be great too. As it is right now, the IMAP is pretty much unusable in my email client of choice. I'm pretty much forced to use Thunderbird due to the RFCs that just aren't supported by the Bridge (gluon). Even going to the gluon repo, the last commit was 2 months ago :(. I don't understand how I as a power user who sends plain text emails is supposed to survive on Proton Mail. I can't use it for mailing list development, at all.

Fastmail just seems to be blowing Proton Mail out of the water in terms of IMAP/SMTP/JMAP. They are actively working on the protocols. Proton doesn't seem to be.

What is your email client of choice? What specific IMAP features are missing from Proton Bridge that you need in order to use it?
