If you just want to send e-mail from your camera to your ProtonMail account, then you just use mail.protonmail.ch as your SMTP server and ensure your destination address is a ProtonMail hosted e-mail address.
If you want to send e-mail from your camera to a non-ProtonMail hosted address, then you either need to upgrade to a paid plan and do lots of ProtonMail Bridge trickery to route those mails from your camera via a host running the Bridge. Or what is better, is to sign up for some transactional SMTP service (like MailJet, MailGun, Sendgrid, etc) and use that instead.
MailJet
This is the best answer! I had never heard about these services, but it is so convenient to use them for small home projects!
In order to use SMTP you need to have a paid account as it clearly states on Protonmail's website.
As for the rest, I have no idea what you're even talking about. I use Linux, what exactly requires smtp mailers on Linux?
I use Protonmail and Tutanota just fine. Perhaps it's a PEBCAK issue.
Tons of apps you may run. Most anything that wants to make an appointment with someone by email such as Zoom. I am always having a kmail window pop for these that does me no good.
Depends on your setup. If you have a paid account you can run ProtonBridge on the same machine as your clients and pipe your SMTP through it (meaning your SMTP client config would be 127.0.0.1.) I’m not sure how/if that would work on a headless setup, though. I personally have an MXRoute lifetime account from before I started with ProtonMail, and I use it with a second domain for the type of things you’re describing.
If Gmail is the problem, who else provides SMTP? Is another free provider like Yahoo an option?
Well it appears it works with outlook. So that is a solution for free.
