Email client that provides individuals with private communication on the Internet
About Mailpile
Mailpile is an effort to reclaim private communication on the Internet. A project to rescue our personal lives from the proprietary cloud and prevent our conversations from being strip-mined for corporate profit and government surveillance. Mailpile is taking e-mail back. Powerful search & tagging makes your pile of mail managable, whether you have just a few messages, thousands or even millions. Mailpile is designed to be fast and responsive, outperforming "the cloud" even on slow computers. And it works even when the Internet is down. OpenPGP signatures and encryption are part of Mailpile's core design, not an afterthought. Mailpile makes it easy to sign and encrypt your mail. It's ironic that most web-mail solutions filter out spam, only to replace it with their own advertisements. Mailpile has no ads.
