   Brennan here from the team. Mailpile is just a user agent. The app talks to GnuPG for crytpo. We follow the unix philosophy as much as it makes sense, but for the overall experience of an MUA that is easily searchable + allows sending encry

   Brenann (Mailpile designer) here. Thanks for the note and feedback. Good eye- it is a reworking of Museo (due to their license being non compatible with GPL/Apache). Our font is still being developed, the x-width & kerning are far

    Hey topherwhite I'm the UI/UX designer of Mailpile- totally aware of the poor rendering on mobile at present. Working on fixing that- was swamped with other aspects of the campaign launch. Thanks for your feedback :)

    Thanks for your feedback! We definitely would like to build native (mobile) apps for Mailpile- small (and important) steps, first though :)

    Hi there. I'm the UI/UX designer on the Mailpile team. Making every aspect of MP easy for non-techies is my primary concern. We aim to be easier than Wordpress with our Alpha release in Jan 2014. Please give me any feedback concer

    Those have significant learning curves to people who don't speak web-l337 yet. Remember before you knew how to code? What version control was, and documentation was scary? Angelfire & GeoCities is where I learned to code HTML

    This makes a tremendous amount of sense on many levels. Having to write screen scrappers for the vast array of HTML / Content layouts on the web is an very tiresome task. Think of all the cool services like Instapaper, Evernote, etc... that
