I am building a Secure email server (SMTP, POP3, Frontend) what features would you guys like to see in it? I have yet to decide if I am going to open source it or built a business of it.
It is very close to being done, so I am not going to say what features it currently has.

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Make it open source, it's easier to make it secure that way afaik.

News about Stars and Sport, directories, a Bitcoin-Wallet, cc & bcc function, strong capacity to send large files, a calender ...
for real: if you build a secure email server which does as good in allday-live as gmail does and has also a bitcoin wallet - this would be a real great thing ...

So the obvious LMAO, I have most of those of course. It is kinda hard for email since it is unencrypted until it hits my custom server, then I encrypt it, before putting into the database. Just do the obvious well was my message between the lines here ... was going to suggest bitmessage network as a transport protocol option (but didn't want to distract you).

I would use if it came out, but only for free. Who knows? Snowden may use it someday. PGP encryption built in would be nice.

This more of a secure line of communication then your everyday e-mail. The sending and receiving of secure large file securely would be a nice feature, going to look into that. Bitcoin wallet probably not going to happen since that more of a headache and I hate web bitcoin wallets. Hi I was half-joking Forget the news about the stars and sport ... but, for real, is it possible to make a allday-email-service which is secure, so, that I could write my normal mails to everybody and its secure? Or is it just possible inside the network / if I gave someone the key? Sad to here that the wallet would make you headache. Would be nice to combine Email with wallet. -- )

Pretty sure there are options to only accept TLS connections on a number of smtpd servers these days. Would be interesting to see how many senders would refuse to change the link to TLS still. Are you or the servers going to be in privacy unfriendly jurisdictions though?

Are you or the servers going to be in privacy unfriendly jurisdictions though? I am building my own mail server so TLS is included and would be the only option. Well I am in the USA and exploring with my legal team the best way to go about this. Worst case I built the mail server and a decent frontend. Then I give the project to someone in a better jurisdiction, while also open sourcing so anyone can run it and I can still have a control direction of the project.
