Who is "the other provider?"

From the quoted roadmap:
Quote:
Runbox 7 is a research and development project with funding from The Research Council of Norway. This is a Norwegian government agency
An independent email provider taking money from the government?
Conspiracy theorists will undoubtedly have a field day

I played a little with it again. Not ready for primetime. Development takes far too long. This harms Runbox.

We are planning to make Runbox 7 the default webmail for new users on December 7, so you can imagine we are rather busy fixing the remaining issues. :wink:

No subscription at the moment. How is Runbox 7 now doing? Can it already be used as daily driver?

I think so, yes, maybe. But YMMV. It's not GREAT. It's one of those webmail interfaces that may elicit a strong reaction. Yes, they are continually making improvements, and I'm happy they decided to stick with the custom approach instead of using some skinned third-party webmail, but as has been mentioned, development is very very VERY slow. I don't like the design itself, but each time I use it, I find it is growing on me a little. I tend to use Runbox more with external email clients and I still find the company to be very good and reliable, with some really nice people that run it. If you've been on the fence, I'd suggest giving them a trial and see how it feels to you.
