Components:
- Mailbox server: stores and provides message access.
- Monitoring server: receives usage stats from transfer servers via UDP.
- Transfer server: forwards messages to appropriate mailbox servers.
- Decentralized Naming Service:
- Manages mailbox server addresses and locations.
- Operates with hierarchically structured nameservers.
- Similar to DNS: top-level domain, subdomains (zones), nameservers.
- Eliminates need for static configuration; transfer servers query nameservers.
- Opportunistic Encryption: Secures DMAP channels for communication privacy and integrity.
- Message Integrity Verification: Mechanisms for verifying message integrity.
Note: This project doesn't have a graphical user interface. Log into your mailbox through TCP tools like Netcat or PuTTY.
