> I saw a need for a safer, better, decentralized protocol for email, so I drafted one (TMTP) and implemented client & server.

We definitely do, and then we need big, heavy corporate advocates for this new protocol. That second part is the rub. I would argue that every company embraced email early only because proprietary formats that locked customers into a platform weren't yet a thing. Now that they are, it is so much harder to propose that we all "just get along" with shared protocols.

Your work looks very interesting and I applaud you for taking this on. I will take a look. I am not entirely pessimistic. Have you thought about building a company around it?

I have sketched a plan for a venture, for which I'd need co-founders (e.g. mobile app code & UX expertise) -- feel free to reach out via Twitter @mnmnotmail (link above).

Those big corporate advocates necessary for the success of a new email protocol are fortunately not the major email hosting players! See the mnm FAQ #2 for a plausible adoption path.
