If present in LDAP (and maybe activated via account settings first), encrypt all unencrypted incoming email for the receiving user's public key.

Posteo had opensourced their Dovecot plugin for encrypting the mail storage with a user's password, but it's all one upload from 10 years ago:

This would be in addition to encrypting emails, and a provider could just choose, or be forced to, intercept the password to unencrypt the mailboxes, of course. Without a custom client, there's not really any other way.
