Yea, I've been helping out on Scramble. We certainly don't have the well-oiled publicity machine that Darkmail has.

What I don't like about the Darkmail thing is that it is still proprietary. Proprietary code is not secure code. 

Right now Scramble has software that encrypts all mail with PGP, without the cumbersome key exchange ritual that PGP requires. Scramble servers also participate in a "notary" network that resolves plain old email addresses to PGP public keys, sort of like the web's DNS system. An attacker would have to control every Scramble server on the network.

This is a grass-roots, open source effort. Let us know if you can help.

Anthony: I was going by the blurb you gave, and the blurb on the front page: "Silent Circle and Lavabit are developing a new way to do email with end-to-end encryption. We welcome like-minded organizations to join our alliance." Not sure about details.

Just want to remind everybody that there's already a Sudo Room based project for email: https://hashed.im/
The scramble.io project is end-to-end. http://dcposch.github.io/scramble/

This seems good to support:

"Along with preserving existing functionality, the team will build
in support for the Dark Mail protocol. Dark Mail, a newly developed
messaging protocol, is designed to provide end-to-end encryption of
both the message itself and the email in transit. Because encryption
will be integrated into the protocol itself, it will be invisible to
the user. Dark Mail users will get the security of PGP without the
cognitive burden; _if someone can use email today they will be able
to use Dark Mail tomorrow_." ← FINALLY THIS


"The project will also include building, and releasing as F/OSS, the
first Dark Mail compatible clients. We are planning to launch with
clients for the desktop (Win, Mac, Lin), smartphones and tablets
(iOS, Android)."
