Real usage metrics from 1M+ real-world emails. The Email Markup Database is a major step toward a more transparent and collaborative ecosystem. With this level of data, we can identify gaps and have constructive discussion on how email clients and ESPs can evolve.
In 2022, we began our Data Collection project with a clear vision for how this data could benefit the ecosystem starting with our annual accessibility reports. Today, we’re excited to announce the next major step in that vision:

This kind of openness and collaboration benefits everyone in the email ecosystem. We’d love to see more email clients follow Proton Mail’s lead in sharing accurate, transparent data with the community.

Proton Mail rise up the accessibility rankings | Email Markup Consortium
We’ve updated our 2025 Accessibility Report after Proton Mail updated its data on “Can I Email?”. It’s a reminder of how transparency and collaboration can push the email industry forward.

Proton Mail (@proton.me) noticed that some of their data on "Can I Email?" was outdated, and took the initiative to update it themselves. As a result, our 2025 Accessibility Report now reflects a much more accurate picture of Proton Mail’s strong accessibility support.

This is grotesque. I lost any love for Vercel & Next years ago, but seeing him cozy up with genocide in Gaza — is beyond words. I feel for the employees.
The horrifying truth: businesses that worked with the Nazis didn’t fall to capitalism. It’s down to us, we have to take our business elsewhere.

Email preview text has never had a proper spec, but it could.
Google's Gmail and Yahoo Mail already support Schema structured data. Adding support for a standardized metadata-based preview text isn't a technical leap; it's the natural next step.
