Thank you. That's useful.

In my case, it's not a), it could be b) which is CM, it could be c).
Protonmail is browser based, but they provide a Protonmail bridge
program to deal with the end-to-end encryption. Thus messages go from
Claws-Mail to bridge (on the local machine) to Protonmail's servers.
But that doesn't apply to Little Girl who is sending via Gmail.

So it could be any of the above. Oh well, it's not a showstopper.
