When configuring the proton mail bridge email account to apple mail, apple mail asks for "Account Description" and "Full Name". What do I type manually there to be able to send and receive emails?

My guess is —
Put in what ever you want ...
Discription : Proton Bridge
Full Name : what ever name you are using

This looks pretty helpful to me...but you have to click the link:

I posted a whole list of 5 articles above from your third party— so you do not have to google too far...
It is hard for me to believe in this short amount of time yo have worked through the list if you are still having issue...
I see they have a video: https://youtu.be/gNp-zp5yEYE

If you are going incognito... how about "Jimmy Incognito" or "Bricks in the Ocean"
or change it later if you don't like it...
For your third party app— If in doubt refer to the developers website; Support/Help/FAQ/known issues/compatibility /updates/uninstall:
Contact a third party vendor
