<h3>Interesting Email Providers Under Development</h3>

<ul>
  <li><a href="https://www.confidantmail.org/">Confidant Mail</a> - An open-source non-SMTP cryptographic email system optimized for large file attachments. It is a secure and spam-resistant alternative to regular email and online file drop services. It
    uses <a href="https://theprivacyguide.org/tutorials/gpg.html">GNU Privacy Guard (GPG)</a> for content encryption and authentication, and TLS 1.2 with ephemeral keys for transport encryption.</li>
</ul>  <h3>Become Your Own Email Provider with Mail-in-a-Box</h3>
<a href="https://mailinabox.email/"><img src="/assets/img/provider/Mail-in-a-Box.png" width="200" height="70" class="img-fluid float-left" alt="Mail-in-a-Box" style="margin-right:10px;"></a>
<p>Take it a step further and get control of your email with this easy-to-deploy mail server in a box. Mail-in-a-Box lets you become your own mail service provider in a few easy steps. It's sort of like making your own Gmail, but one you control from top
to bottom. Technically, Mail-in-a-Box turns a fresh cloud computer into a working mail server. But you don't need to be a technology expert to set it up. <strong>More: <a href="https://mailinabox.email/">https://mailinabox.email/</a></strong></p>
