We've been using Honeycomb at Nylas for 6+ months at this point and love it - the product keeps getting better and better, it's fast and reliable, and it's given us new debugging capabilities that make investigating outages a

For now, the encryption plugin is only available on the older version, Nylas Pro. No reason for that other than time to port and QA the plugin to the new free version, which has a completely written mail sync engine that runs locally rather

No new funding model, just better tech! In the new version, we don't sync and store all of your email on our servers, which dramatically drops the cost of running the service.

It didn't make it into this release because we wanted to focus on making the base mail experience solid first, but it should be back soon!

N1 supports connecting to all the major email providers, as well as pretty much every obscure IMAP server run by your ISP! What's pointed out in the FAQ is just that it uses a cloud service component (also open source! http:/&#x2

Super sad to hear about this, as the Debian project has been hugely influential on my life. (It's the reason I went to MIT and became a software engineer.) Rest in peace, Ian.

I don't expect that we'll have time to put this together officially very soon. If you'd like to help though, the best way would be to figure out how to get N1 building on arch from the open source repo!

You can, but remember the sync engine doesn't provide any authentication layer by default, since people use it in so many different ways. You'll want to run it proxied behind some sort of authentication service. (With AWS, you can

Bundling the sync engine with the client works if you're willing to download your entire mail archive onto every device that connects to your mail. An implementation of the sync engine that allowed only syncing partial mailboxes woul

I used mutt until I started this company, so I couldn't agree more. :) Reading HTML emails piped to w3m gets kind of old after a while though!

We'll consider JMAP support if it reaches widespread adoption. For now, it wouldn't add much value, and we have a lot to build!

The main codebase is in `inbox/`, with launcher scripts and tools in `bin/`. (Might not be totally obvious, because the package namespace is called `inbox/` for legacy reasons.) If a beginner wants to see real production code

Hi @pikzen, thanks for the comment. One of the advantages of our platform is that you're actually paying for us to run it---so we don't have to sell user data to get by. We don't specifically support end-to-end encryption in
