Is protonmail anonymous?

2018-10-07

We sent ourself an email from a protonmail email address and we looked into the header. We sent it from the proton webmail. First of all, we were really impressed by the webmail which is faster than gmail, yahoo and hotmail. As you can see below we didn’t find the IP address of the client (my computer). The client IP is replaced by the server IP of protonmail. Protonmail is located in Switzerland. Consequently, it falls under the Swiss legal framework. This means that in order to get an IP address, someone needs to start legal proceedings and it has to go through Interpol if this person is located outside of Switzerland. If the law does not exist in Switzerland, the legal proceeding will stop.
