Intro Let’s get right into it. This is my ‘ ’ series on hackernoon. draw the company but better hopefully https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohASXGSttJw Today we will be replacing Gmail and adding some stuff. But actually, it’s backward compatible so that you can keep your Gmail; idc. Goals of new mail client literally the same but not Less spam More interesting content why I’m cool 🤯 Goal 1: New Dashboard The goal of eXmail is to create an extended email platform that allows for the separation of concerns, the combination of inboxes, and variability in the number of email addresses available. The reason for using multiple email addresses is in privacy relay technology at a group level rather than individual account level. In short, steal all our favorite features from google and apple, then add a little pizzazz. “Privacy-Relay” by apple🐍 or “ ” by imagine🚀 is a unique randomized email address. x-gate It handles the routing of mail. An example “root” address: x-gate root-as53d1@x.domain.com We will look at this as an inbox to view emails in. The noted goal is: Separation and combination of inboxes on privacy relays. Backward compatible with current email provider(s). Each tab in the drawing above “Root,” “Discover,” Gaming,” etc., is inspired by tabs on Gmail. The problem with Gmail tabs is that they don’t work well. It’s funneling everything through one opening and trying to sort it after, at best. Now, to be honest with you, doesn’t solve much. x-gate However, it lets you sort those emails into the desired tab beforehand. It even enables you to turn that tab off for good if the spam becomes overwhelming. It would also allow an account provider ( ) to give each registration a unique contact email ( 👇). Still, it could provide a list of subject-specific emails like so: online identity side note below ‘marketing-sdfsd44@x.domain.com’, ‘security-sdfsd44@x.domain.com’, ‘etc-sdfsd44@x.domain.com’, This removes the need for anyone (even you, tech workers) to rely on from email campaign efforts as only registered domains could contact the provided ( account) emails. It also allows them to block “ ” marketing without accidentally “report spam” security. unsubscription online identity report spam blocking ed Cool Things Summarized: “root,” “Discover,” “Gaming,” “Security” are unique email addresses or “ .” x-gates Each x-gate is representative of what would typically be an email account. “root” is a catch-all. This means you can view multiple accounts as one inbox. Filters & folders are combined as smart folders. I use star sometimes, but I put Stoneman's face in because I didn’t know what it meant. Search by individual account or all. 👇 side note from before It is cool to use x-gate when registering an account on the internet (online identity) for two reasons. If you want to leave a site and they are eviiil, you can: disallow them to contact the x-gate turn the x-gate off completely. x-gate value prop here is you turned it off without making a new Gmail. If they lose your email in a data breach, then either: it is a unique email and can be regenerated host has a list of senders to be considered valid to receive. 👼👑 Goal 2: Holy Shit, If Spam Didn’t Exist, What Else Would? Discover newsletter and email subscription content. +100% assured to have a “turn off” button that does not fail. The noted goal is: A place to find risk-free email campaigns and newsletters. No Spam. I think this is cool, and I would subscribe to things (like hackernoon) through this. With that said, I got bored when designing the display section with consistent details so fill in the blanks- because I don’t report to shareholders. #broekb0i Goal 3: Start The War On Spam That Favors Users, Not Companies 😈 Alright, if you’re ahead of the curve, then by now, you’re probably thinking: This moron is going to let me ban or unincentivize ( ) whatever sender or words I want. Hope you don’t email me in bad mood! :) two sep things!!! google confused as just unincentivize Darn tootin’. But also made this thing called history for stuff caught in your spam by accident. [/spam]: in drawing mvp it’s decided this folder doesn’t even exist. +Block 💩 Yeah, “ Blocks” means let us crowdsource the filters that stop your content dead in its tracks.
