The mnm project is building a legitimate email replacement: a client[1], a server[2], and a simple protocol[3] between them. (Legitimate, i.e. n-identity, decentralized, store-and-forward, open protocol, open source.)
https://mnmnotmail.orghttps://twitter.com/mnmnotmailBoth client and server are written in Go. The client UI runs in a localhost browser tab, rendered by Vue.js. The client has had nine preview releases since Spring 2019.
