Hi, Steemers!
I know that "no one" has nothing to hide, but I am very bothered by the principle that the state, agencies, hackers may do what they want with your privacy. And the fact that they make a lot of money on the user's back and we don't benefit one penny, although we are Bombarded with commercials. And if you feel the same, please let's find together the best Block-Chain E-mail or at least an experimental one, preferably that shares revenue with the user. Please share your experience related to this subject.
"State-Sponsored Hackers and Geopolitical Implications
News on data breaches is recurring almost daily, affecting email service providers, as well as businesses, government agencies, and political organizations. The impacts of these incidents are potentially far-reaching.
Take, for example, the recent hacking of the Democratic National Committee. Allegedly, this hacking adversely affected the outcome of the 2016 U.S. Presidential elections. Many contend that state-sponsored actors performed the hacking.
In effect, according to NBC News, “U.S. intelligence officials now believe with ‘a high level of confidence’ that Russian President Vladimir Putin became personally involved in the covert Russian campaign to interfere in the U.S. presidential election, senior U.S. intelligence officials told NBC News.”
Cyberattacks have been the norm for a long time. Now, however, the frequency, magnitude, and implications of email hackings and other malicious acts are increasing dramatically. As a result, it is now urgent to innovate and move toward more secure email technologies, such as those that integrate the security that the Bitcoin’s blockchain technology provides.
What do you think about running email systems on Bitcoin’s blockchain technology? Let us know in the comments below."

I will list the Decentralized E-mails found on the Web:
PROMETHEUS https://proemthe.us/ ( Seems abandoned, I guess never took off... Anyone knows something about that?)
Lemon Mail https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/68tyhn/lemonmail_dapp_a_decentralized_email_service/ (I think it's in the testing phase, I wait for a response for testing...)
MaidSafe on the coin-market already (MAID)$0.785811 USD (7.04%) https://maidsafe.net (I'm gonna check this out!)
FlowingMail http://flowingmail.com (Appears to be also in an infant stage, can't register anywhere)
CryptaMail http://www.cryptamail.com ( the register/send private e-mail doesn't work, probably also in the developing stage or dumped...)
Please do your own research and tell me if you find another, or what you know about those listed above.
Thank you!
To a better, prosperous, private and free Home/World!
Namaste
