What are its features? I did not see that on the webpage. Does it for example offer perfect anonymity even to network attackers, on a similar level BitMessage [0] provides?

Looks like our approach to anonymity is similar.

Eppie’s addressees are pseudo-anonymous. That is a user keeps their anonymity as long as they don’t use same address for different correspondents and don’t allow an address to be associated with other services in a Public Registry.

At this stage of development, we are not planning to build our own anonymous network, but Eppie will allow users to utilize existing technologies, like Tor and I2P, or configure a proxy server to anonymize their Eppie traffic.

Here are the main features:

Creating an account in a decentralized network.

Full support for classic email + Proton Mail.

Decentralized messages.

Migration of the old mailbox to web3.

Built-in identity manager.

Ability to use Ethereum addresses.

We are also preparing a website update.

Interesting! How does this <<feature

Eppie can use conventional email as a name service: so you send a message to Gmail address, but it never lands on the server and goes straight to the decentralized network.

feature work without a central name managing server?

Yes, it does work without central name managing server. Sign up for early access to try it among the first.
