Post by b***@openmailbox.orgCan anyone suggest a reputable webmail provider that is not totally
anti-Tor.
Cock.li and Sigaint and Unseen.is and Mail2Tor are out as the names look
weird to "normal" people.
Unseen.is - is "weird" to people? What's so weird? I've used it almost
since they moved to Iceland (though mostly not a Tor acct).
Never had a soul comment on the domain in the least. Not sure about
Sigiant - how do they pronounce it? Is it See-zjant or see-gant or
see-ji'-unt?
Post by b***@openmailbox.orgProtonMail demands SMS validation.
They do? If they demand SMS, how does it remain anonymous, unless you
buy a burner phone (don't even know how those work, anymore)?
"they will accept bitcoin or even cash payments to allow users to remain
anonymous."

Post by b***@openmailbox.orgRiseUp requires an invitation.
Used to, you could submit request to riseup - stating why you wanted to
use it. It's been suggested, don't get to get too radical / political
in your statements, but I don't know.
The website www.thesimplecomputer.info ran a long list of "alternative"
email providers, but I don't see it on the site.
I did an update on that list, which I posted here, then "Simple
Computer" did some more updating after we spoke.
Post by b***@openmailbox.org"With Riseup, you don’t just whimsically create an account like with
most other email services. You must instead request an account, or
know two people already with Riseup accounts who can send you
invitation codes.
Riseup gives you the choice of SquirrelMail <http://squirrelmail.org/>
or Horde IMP 3 <http://www.horde.org/apps/imp> for a webmail interface
(the screenshot is IMP) and with IMP, you get PGP messaging through
the webmail. You can create up to a 2048 bit PGP keypair or import an
existing one. Riseup also gives you an on-screen keyboard for login,
DKIM <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dkim> signatures and even VPN
access. IP addresses are gone in both webmail and SMTP, as are the
mail client’s user agent and all connections support perfect forward
secrecy <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_forward_secrecy>.
Yes, Riseup has strong political overtones to its website literature
and I’ve read responses from people being denied an account after
describing their political beliefs in the request info. Whether that
was direct cause for their request denial, I don’t know. What you
choose to write is up to you however, I’ll say that when requesting
this account, I made no political references or affiliations
whatsoever. Don’t feel that you must do so. Your mileage may vary."
