Even without all the capabilities of protonmail(yet) it's interesting the fact that they've managed to allow encryption communication without having you to create a new account...

I had a look at this earlier and it mentions they operate a CA, to provide S/MIME certs.

How are these certs handled by other mail clients/systems? Do they have a chain to a widely accepted Root CA?

So this is, what, a worse version of PGP? I'm not sure I understand.

How's it a worse version of PGP? It's similar in that it uses asymmetric encryption, but it has the benefit of having the private key stored on an HSM.
