A local IMAP/SMTP bridge that talks to Tuta's API and handles the end-to-end encryption transparently, so your favourite desktop client just works. Download · Getting started · Features · Backup · Architecture ## ⚠️ Please read before using TutaBridge goes against Tuta's end-to-end philosophy, and Tuta does not endorse it. Tuta has no official bridge on purpose. Decrypting your mail outside their apps and handing it to a local mail client widens your attack surface: a compromised device, a shady client add-on, or a buggy MCP client now sees your messages in plaintext. Tuta has explained this stance publicly (1, 2). So who is it for? Advanced users who trust their own device but not necessarily the email provider, and who want to keep full control of their data: read it in any client, back it up to plain files, search it locally, automate it. The threat model is \"I trust my machine, I just don't want to be locked into one vendor's apps.\" If that isn't you, stay on Tuta's official apps. The released binaries are also not code-signed , so your OS will warn on first launch (see Download). --- Features --- --- IMAP + SMTP Local TLS servers on 127.0.0.1 , so any standard mail client connects.
