Protects against the following threat(s):
The email clients we recommend support both OpenPGP and strong authentication such as Open Authorization (OAuth). OAuth allows you to use Multi-Factor Authentication to prevent account theft.
L'e-mail n'assure pas la confidentialité persistante
When using end-to-end encryption (E2EE) technology like OpenPGP, email will still have some metadata that is not encrypted in the header of the email.
OpenPGP ne prend pas non plus en charge la confidentialité persistante, ce qui signifie que si votre clé privée ou celle du destinataire est volée, tous les messages précédents chiffrés avec cette clé seront exposés : comment protéger mes clés privées ? Envisagez d'utiliser un support qui assure la confidentialité persistante :
Multi-plateformes¶
Thunderbird¶
Thunderbird est un client d'e-mail, de groupes de discussion, de flux d'informations et de chat (XMPP, IRC, Matrix) gratuit, open-source et multiplateforme, développé par la communauté Thunderbird, et précédemment par la Fondation Mozilla.
Configuration recommandée¶
We recommend changing some of these settings to make Thunderbird a little more private.
These options can be found in → Settings → Privacy & Security.
Web Content¶
- Uncheck Remember websites and links I've visited
- Uncheck Accept cookies from sites (1)
- You may need to keep this setting checked when you're logging in to some providers such as Gmail, or via an institution’s SSO. You should uncheck it once you log in successfully.
Telemetry¶
- Uncheck Allow Thunderbird to send technical and interaction data to Mozilla
Thunderbird-user.js (avancé)¶
thunderbird-user.js is a set of configuration options that aims to disable as many of the web-browsing features within Thunderbird as possible in order to reduce attack surface and maintain privacy. Some of the changes are backported from the Arkenfox project.
Spécifique à une plateforme¶
Apple Mail (macOS)¶
Apple Mail is included in macOS and can be extended to have OpenPGP support with GPG Suite, which adds the ability to send PGP-encrypted email.
For those using macOS Sonoma
Currently, GPG Suite does not yet have a stable release for macOS Sonoma.
Apple Mail has the ability to load remote content in the background or block it entirely and hide your IP address from senders on macOS and iOS.
Canary Mail (iOS)¶
Canary Mail is a paid email client designed to make end-to-end encryption seamless with security features such as a biometric app lock.
Downloads
Avertissement
Canary Mail only recently released a Windows and Android client, though we don't believe they are as stable as their iOS and Mac counterparts.
Canary Mail is closed-source. We recommend it due to the few choices there are for email clients on iOS that support PGP E2EE.
FairEmail (Android)¶
FairEmail is a minimal, open-source email app which uses open standards (IMAP, SMTP, OpenPGP) and minimizes data and battery usage.

GNOME Evolution (GNOME)¶
Evolution is a personal information management application that provides integrated mail, calendaring and address book functionality. Evolution has extensive documentation to help you get started.
