Look at https://protonmail.ch. They claim will use a site-to-site web 
encryption.
The MTA is Postfix which will receive the content already encrypted by the 
browser, unlike lavabit.
I have concerns since they posted on their forum that body text search will be 
possible with some intelligent solutions.
Is not clear to me how is possible to search a string (encrypted or not) in an 
encrypted content.

Hi nice people, easy question for this nice Sunday :D

Are you aware of any solution that would replicate (or even improve) the 
technology that was developed by lavabit to encrypt their users mailboxes ?

There is an architecture description here: 
http://highscalability.com/blog/2013/8/13/in-memoriam-lavabit-architecture-creating-a-scalable-email-s.html

...

encrypting and decrypting the users mailbox with their password (or a dedicated 
password), on the fly, would be fairly easy

but what happens when an incoming email needs to be saved to the user's inbox, 
but the inbox is encrypted ?

Mmm scratching our heads ... :)

 

Do you think we can work on an open source solution together ?

Or you just suggest to use PGP/GPG ?

 

Thanks for your attention and contribution!
