Inky has posted a document entitled "Inky Security White Paper" here: http://inky.com/secure/

Haven't tried the software or given their paper a proper read yet.

Initial thoughts: No forward/future secrecy. Stores user private keys on their server encrypted with user supplied passwords. Their centralized service is trusted for identity. Not sure how users update their secrets if compromised.

Adding proper E2E crypto to legacy email is hard. I don't think they solve it.
