Protonmail and Tutanota email services are free and open source and they use end to end encryption for email services. I am not too sure what is going on but when I am trying to register an account over at a different website that uses discourse, when I have used both Tutanota and Protonmail for registration, discourse claims that it has sent an email to the specified email but I end up not receiving anything in my inbox. I have checked the spam folders as well but nothing turned up. I have even resent the verification code but I still get nothing, which is getting rediculas. I have never had this issue when registering with a Google account. Why does discourse which is also a free and open source platform, forces users to use corproate owned email addresses rather than allowing users to use whatever email address they please to use?
We don’t — if the email is being sent but silently rejected (as spam or unwanted) by the email service, you would need to contact proton mail to figure out why.
Outlook / Hotmail is notorious for silent rejection of email they don’t like, by the way. This is not unheard of.
But that is werid how both Tutanota and Protonmail does the same thing, even with disposible email addresses that I have used in the past the same issue occurs.
Which service did you use to register here?
I was registering to ARchLabs that uses Discourse, and I had that issue as mentioned above.
Sure, but which service did you use to register here on meta?
I used a Gmail account.
So have you had problems registering using Protonmail to more than one Discourse site? Did you try to register here on meta with Protonmail before posting this?
You really can’t say that unless you can establish some pattern which suggests Discourse sites have a problem routing email to Protonmail. One occurrence doesn’t make for a pattern.
你好，
我在 ProtonMail 上也遇到了类似的问题。
我们 Discourse 实例的管理员账户是一个 ProtonMail 账户。大部分邮件都能正常接收，但我尝试更改管理员时，确认邮件（以及测试邮件）均未收到。
已检查垃圾邮件文件夹，但里面也没有相关邮件。
+1 同感。
遇到同样的问题。
我用其他邮箱账户测试过，可以正常工作。
一般来说，我可以收到 Discourse 的通知邮件（如新主题、主题回复、邀请等），但无法收到“管理员已授予”确认邮件或测试邮件。
我尝试向不同地址发送测试邮件，但 Protonmail 中既没有收到邮件，垃圾邮件箱里也没有。
如果问题仅出现在 Proton Mail，那么这是 Proton Mail 或其邮件投递服务的问题。
