A bitcoin user has created a way in which to use a bitcoin address to securely read email. The project, named B1txr, allows users to provide their bitcoin address, followed by @b1txr.com, to anyone as a way of avoiding giving out their real email address.

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Hmm, this is neat, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how I would use it. I guess I could send a secret love letter to a public address owned by Satoshi, knowing only Satoshi would be able to read it? Lol
