What security does ePOST provide?
All data stored in the p2p network is encrypted, and all mutable data is signed by the owner. This means that no one can read your mail, and that no one can forge any messages, or alter any of your folders. All of the ePOST proxies (IMAP, SMTP, and POP3) support SSL encryption, meaning that your mail client can securely connect to the proxies without anyone eavesdropping on the conversation. Additionally, the IMAP proxy supports CRAM-MD5 authentication, which allows non-SSL connections to securly authenticate without sending the password over the wire.
