To be fair, designing an open end to end system without spam/scams is
not an eaasy task.
But I think it is well recognised that there is a lot of obvious
limitations in how email works. Not having end-to-end encryption for
private emails as a standard/required feature comes to mind.
I think if Google, Microsoft, Apple, etc, really wanted to we could have
end-to-end encryption on emails. Even if it required new web browser
standards. But so far they haven't shown any interest.
Brian good to hear from you
/start rant
Luv-Main's subject matter is of course Linux relevant subject matter and
the individual's involved are looking
at email problems from the point of view of system administrators and
domain managers. But the vast majority of
users of email out there have no support and when email glitches occur
and don't seem fixable; they move on to other social
media ; which I am not sure is such a desirable outcome !
Perhaps the future will bring regulation and standardisation of the
digital frontier;
which thus far seems more like some Libertarian Anarchist Wet Dream !
/end rant :-)
