@reality2cast @dsearls @katherined @shawnp0wers Re email disasters: I've been afraid too, haven't found how I easy can b/up my multiple IMAPs on Apple Mail client (hoping Time machine may save me if something had happened). However, now when I have migrated to Thunderbird, there is an "Export" of everything in Thunderbird. If less than 2GB directly zip-file. Else I click and the location and I can copy and paste the folder containg all. Hoping it saves me at disaster. support.mozilla.org/sv/kb/thun

About the encryption, I think it should be noted that it is misleading to use the phrase "end-to-end encryption" when a Big Brother such as Apple holds the keys. Because Apple's software is closed and proprietary, a user will not know how keys are handled, whatever Apple do it is not meaningful to call it "end-to-end encryption". That requires open source software. If Apple says E2E, that's a scam from Apple, let us not be fooled.

@eliasr @hehemrin @reality2cast @dsearls @shawnp0wers I think that's fair criticism. It may get close for many Apple users, but you have to place a lot of trust in Apple in exchange for convenience.
