    One thing that jumps out at me reading the readme is the fact that it has a built in email server. Email is hard to get right, and I’m surprised a relatively young(?) project is working on getting all the moving pieces together rather than declaring it out of scope.

    It’ll be interesting to see how it develops.

      I’m no expert but as i understood, it’s the sending part that’s tricky to get right. Lots of handshake to handle, all to probably end up in a spam folder or blocked along the way. But receiving from a publicly acknowledged address ? I think it’s fairly simple

      I would never trust a newly written email server and there is absolutely no reason not to use an already existing as a dependency to this project.

      Do You know more about the email server part? I understand +addressing but this seems to be more? Do You hand a domain over and it is actually a full MX or is it just an imap client?
