Just wondering that building a new mail system which can provide anonymous mail system and protect mail safu from attacking.
We are planing to use Ethereum, public key & private key are mapping to the only mail address.
When you send mail in this system, your mail will be encrypted by your public key, and you need private key to unlock the mail for reading.
This a Peer-to-peer encryption mail system , and it also simple , fast , easy to use!
We will open source at next month.
I am not sure what you want to do, but if it's an e-mail system that can send mails to anybody - including traditional e-mail addresses -, your idea will become the heaven of spammers and could destroy the project and the underlying coin too if it's not powerful enough (when govt. agencies will come after the spammers).
So while truly anonymous and safu sounds great, if you don't have logs to save you in case of anything, you may get into trouble.
Of course, you can disappear like Satoshi, but unlike him, if your invention will be ultimate tool for spammers, you won't be loved.
All the things we are building is to protect anonymous and data safety.
As you know this is a p2p mail system, so if you sent mail to traditional e-mail addresses or received mail from traditional e-mail addresses, that won't be encrypted but you are still keeping 'anonymous'.
We have consider about spammer email. We have some solutions below:
1. We can build a vote page for spam mail address
2. We can find the Spammer by our own black list
3. As you are using Ethereum account, if you want to use our mail system for business, you can set a receive fee, people who sending mail to you without pay will be filtered.
We have considered about lot of bad things , and most of the questions are already have answers.
Thanks for you questions!
Please keep in touch with us!
