Wow...what a great resource! I just downloaded it and will start reading it tonight. Thanks!

I'm all for competition but there is nothing more unappealing than the way the founder is acting about his product. After reading the security article I did a look around as well and the thing is still wide open. The security on it is like a piece of swiss cheese. It's sad that he didn't just acknowledge the issues and let everyone know a security update would be on it's way or hell even hire or work with the guy who pointed out the flaws and clean everything up.

This. Can't agree more.

I'd be open to a new open service, if and only if it really went above and beyond our current expectations of email providers today. I think gmail(what I currently use) is great and I'm satisfied with it but it doesn't mean that I wouldn't switch if something could out-do it in certain arenas. I think the obvious factors of security,privacy and UI/UX would be the things that would really have to shine for me to open my wallet. I'm not sure but I think that the market has some pretty decent offerings and people might not be on the lookout for a new email service but to make an example; I wasn't looking for a new text editor when I came across Sublime. Sometimes thing are so great that they are just worth trying. It would be a large undertaking on your part but who knows how it could turn out? Good luck.
