Mailpile – email client software

Mailpile is an open source fast email client with user-friendly encryption and privacy features.

It runs on your desktop or laptop computer and you interact with it by using your web browser. The goal of Mailpile is to allow people to send e-mail in a more secure and private manner than before.

While Mailpile is similar to Gmail, it runs on your computer. This gives the user control over their data and privacy.
