"Legitimate" because it is open protocol (TMTP), decentralized, store-and-forward, n-identity, and open source. Email is a network, not a product or service. TMTP is the basis for a new network.

Both hey.com[1] (from the Basecamp folks) and TMTP from the mnm project[2] (proposed successor to SMTP) disallow background downloading of remote URLs. TMTP also specifies Markdown formatting (not HTML), fwiw. [1] https://hey.com

This idea assumes that email is an irreplaceable source of personal or organizational identity. I believe that assumption is a misapplication of email. Universal identity is a complex issue, and is not addressed well by email addresses. Por

Cybercrime vs cybersecurity is an arms race, and arms race scenarios are not necessarily resolvable.

I can read the WaPo article in a private/incognito browser window. The IETF in particular has had a huge role in facilitating phishing via SMTP.

This overlooks the cybercrime crisis, which in 2020 did ~4x more financial damage than weather & climate disasters. And it's expected to get much worse this year. https://twitter.com/mnmnotmail/status/1372

Well it's not a drop-in replacement for email. The demo[1] illustrates how a collection of TMTP services enable replacement of email, and the FAQ[2] describes the process by which TMTP would grow to supplant SMTP. [1] https:/&#x2

Or commonly, tho perhaps confusingly: for i := 0; i < 10 i++ { i := i // new variable i for every iteration go func() { f(i) }() }

I think there's a bug, tho it might not make a difference to the results: for i := 0; i < 10; i++ { go func() { f(i) // sees whatever value i has when f() is called, usually 10 }() }

References? I'm not aware of any alternative email protocol that's implemented, except TMTP. I don't believe closed-source, walled-garden services, which don't allow third-party clients or servers, really count as legiti

Consider the huge variety of messaging and discussion apps; it's relatively easy to embrace new communication tools. EDIT: you might never silence SMTP altogether, but a suitable protocol could supplant it for the great majority of its

Yet another superb reason not to run your internal company comms on a publicly accessible email server. Or to replace email for internal use altogether. TMTP is a new protocol with that goal: https://mnmnotmail.org/ https:

You have to be a member of an organization that provides you with a TMTP account. Email is the same. I'm working on a live demo that runs from the website. Follow me on twitter to hear when it's available. https://twitt

I built a localhost web app, where the app runs locally and displays its UI in one or more browser tabs. [1] It uses websockets & JSON to connect the SPA UI (in Vue.js) to the app (in Go). That works well, and I can't imagine any a

This is a pure puff piece for a new webmail app. I'd love to know how the BBC (of all outlets) came to publish this article. If I may say so, the mnm project also deserves coverage like this. It prevents spy-pixels, and phishing, and p

Yes, it's clearly a puff piece. Can I bribe a BBC editor to get them to write about mnm & TMTP? :-) It also prevents spy-pixels, and phishing, and provides unsubscribe (from threads, or senders, or whole sites). mnm, an open sour
