for real: if you build a secure email server which does as good in allday-live as gmail does and has also a bitcoin wallet - this would be a real great thing ...

This more of a secure line of communication then your everyday e-mail. The sending and receiving of secure large file securely would be a nice feature, going to look into that.

Bitcoin wallet probably not going to happen since that more of a headache and I hate web bitcoin wallets.

Hi

I was half-joking Smiley Forget the news about the stars and sport ... but, for real, is it possible to make a allday-email-service which is secure, so, that I could write my normal mails to everybody and its secure? Or is it just possible inside the network / if I gave someone the key?

Sad to here that the wallet would make you headache. Would be nice to combine Email with wallet. -- )

Yes this is exactly what it will be a secure line of communication to anyone.

Bitcoin isn't meant to be in a web wallet, plus if you really need to send bitcoins to an email just use http://coinapult.com/ in connection with my soon to be service.

Private, secure, anonymous ... client-side only key handling ... (pay-for-service using btc?)

So the obvious LMAO, I have most of those of course. It is kinda hard for email since it is unencrypted until it hits my custom server, then I encrypt it, before putting into the database.

Just do the obvious well was my message between the lines here ... was going to suggest bitmessage network as a transport protocol option (but didn't want to distract you).

Bitmessage, is something for hardcore privacy people. My solution would allow anyone to easy sign up and can communicate with anyone else in a secure bubble. That is how I look at this.

Pretty sure there are options to only accept TLS connections on a number of smtpd servers these days.   Would be interesting to see how many senders would refuse to change the link to TLS still.

Are you or the servers going to be in privacy unfriendly jurisdictions though?

I am building my own mail server so TLS is included and would be the only option.

Well I am in the USA and exploring with my legal team the best way to go about this. Worst case I built the mail server and a decent frontend. Then I give the project to someone in a better jurisdiction, while also open sourcing so anyone can run it and I can still have a control direction of the project.

I would use if it came out, but only for free. Who knows? Snowden may use it someday.  Roll Eyes

PGP encryption built in would be nice.

Make it open source, it's easier to make it secure that way afaik.

I am building a Secure email server (SMTP, POP3, Frontend) what features would you guys like to see in it? I have yet to decide if I am going to open source it or built a business of it.

It is very close to being done, so I am not going to say what features it currently has.
