From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't know much about Gmail but I'm quite certain, that you only have to enable IMAP/SMTP in Gmail settings.
Install the Proton Mail Bridge and connect to the IMAP/SMTP server on localhost (ports 1143 and 1025).
I had only minor problems getting the above to work. Anyway., for Protonmail there is ElectronMail. It's available as Flatpak too and it minimizes/starts to tray.
I can get the clients to fetch the e-mail atm, the issue is what I wrote above, is there a simple way to get thunderbird to fetch them from the moment I turn the pc on and give me notifications about it?
Birdtray might be what you’re looking for. I’ve only used it on windows, but for me it gets thunderbird out of the way but able to be checked and used immediately.
