Dang.
Some good news though:
Automatic forwarding isn't an issue IMO since I can do that at the DNS level for custom domains. However, everyone on my plan at the same domain would need to switch at the same time.
But definitely something to take into account. Hopefully it's just the immaturity of the product and will get resolved with time. Proton also didn't have IMAP when it started, and it has a workable bridge now (so bulk export is an option that way). Proton also supports encrypted email forwarding now (encryption probably only applies to internal to Proton forwards), so hopefully Tuta follows suit.
Maybe I'll switch to Proton instead, IDK. My emails aren't that valuable to me long term, so I'd be fine downloading/forwarding the few I care about manually. My primary goal here is to get off Google, and I'm willing to jump through a few hoops to do so (and Tuta is pretty good and pretty inexpensive). But that may not be true for others.
