I'm not sure you are doing anything wrong, I personally experienced same problem with keys at lavaboom, even importing original keys form them still gives me a error message. I just assume there are some issues they will fix soon. |

DarkMail
Speaking of interoperability, what are your thoughts on DarkMail? If DarkMail ever gets off the ground, would you build support in SCRYPTmail for it?
https://www.darkmail.info/ Or, is it far simpler to add public keys to your contacts for exchanging encrypted mail with third parties? |

To make it easy for the masses to adopt more secure email, then at least PGP interoperability should be a key feature. I think would open it up, since there are already plugins and apps to implement PGP with traditional email services such as Yahoo, Outlook and Gmail. As a matter of fact, having at least emails signed with a PGP signature would be a great initial cut. It's just way to easy to spoof traditional email. Make this user friendly and you will win customers.
I believe competition in this space should not be driven to win the most users of proprietary secure email services, but to compete on features, UI, usability and interoperability of secure email services. |

What happens to unencrypted messages that are received and their metadata? Are they encrypted?
To me this is even more important than sending encrypted e-mail. I know I'm never going to be able to convince the people I know to talk to me exclusively through encrypted e-mail. I would like for there to be no possibility to snoop in my e-mail account or request the data and see who I talk to, and which newsletters and sites I am subscribed to. Also if there are limitations in keeping/displaying many encrypted messages with such a service with limited ressources, then it would be good to have a function to download or export e-mails somehow so that they don't remain captive on the server. |

Done. Actually, for now, if we can have more space or messages then it wouldn't matter as much to me. I understand there are limits and you're doing this out of goodwill at least for the beginnings, but we receive so many promotional e-mails these days that a limit of 1000 messages would last a few months tops before we'd have to delete everything.
I must join the others and congratulate you for this incredible service. You're adding a lot of worthwhile features and you go to great lengths to listen to your users. Thank you very much Sergei. I look forward to making this my main e-mail account. And I must say I believe you when you say the metadata is encrypted. I know that on Protonmail there is a small delay in loading the message body, because the body of unencrypted messages is unencrypted. With Scryptmail there is a small lag when you load the list of e-mails itself. To my knowledge no other private e-mail service offers this yet. |

I would think promotional emails would have an ephemeral inbox lifespan.

Another small suggestion I can think of which I reckon might be very easy to implement: an indicator of the amount of unread messages appearing on the browser tab. This way we can see while browsing when we have received a new e-mail.
I currently use Yandex, and one feature that I like is that it has an optional chime sound effect that plays in the browser when you receive a new e-mail. |
