Desktop clients allow us to integrate deeper into the operating system for a much better user experience. We focused on improving Tutanota's desktop clients also because Tutanota doesn't support IMAP, and for good reason.
IMAP support is not an option for Tutanota, as it would undermine our built-in encryption. As an encrypted email service that promises to always keep your data safe, we simply cannot implement a feature that would destroy this promise.
Technically, supporting IMAP would only be possible for us if emails were downloaded to your computer and stored there unencrypted. However, at Tutanota we promise that your data is always end-to-end encrypted, also on your own devices! So instead of supporting an insecure feature, we focused on improving our open source desktop clients.
