I'm opening an anonymous email service.

Most people know that I'm an insane Internet person, but they don't know that I also collect domains. Domains are very cheap and it's kind of fun to say you own autism.exposed. The problem is that domains by themselves don't really have much use.

For about 2 years now I've operated a private mail server for donors who own kiwifarms.net email addresses. After playing around with it for that long of a time and having a pretty stable setup going, I've grown confident in my abilities to administrate it. Today I've added a custom built front-end to let people register domains using my addresses. Only specific domains are open, and kiwifarms.net remains for donors only, but some funny ones are available.

I offer this with no guarantee (as-is), so don't tie your banks to it. I wrote some legal docs so if you're interested in privacy and terms of use they're short and to the point.

This is pretty much identical to cock.li, which has some other fun domains to register. We use a very similar setup and I want to give a big shoutout to Vincent Canfield for being a cool guy.
 
I've noticed that the "How can I trust you?" Section mentions PGP, but nothing about SSL configuration. Is SSL available for users?

(It seems almost dumb to ask, but I know of at least one ISP that doesn't allow customers to use SSL for an email service it provides. In 2016.)

HTTPS is enforced. If you're asking about encrypted email transfer, read this from cock.li. He puts it better.

How can I trust you?
You can't. Cock.li doesn't parse your E-mail to provide you with targeted ads, nor do I read E-mail contents unless it's for a legal court order. However, it is 100% possible for me to read E-mail, and IMAP/SMTP doesn't provide user-side/client-side encryption, so you're just going to have to take my word for it. Any encryption implementation would still technically allow me to read E-mail, too. This was true for Lavabit, too -- while your E-mail was stored encrypted (only if you were a paid member, which most people forget), E-mail could still technically be intercepted while being received / sent (SMTP), or while being read by your mail client (IMAP). For privacy, I would recommend encrypting your E-mails using PGP using a mail client add-on like Enigmail.
 
15,134 Active Emails, 31 Users

Is that normal this soon for there to be so many active emails with so few users?

If Null finds out I have hurtcore that I haven't shared with him he'll be really really hurt and wonder just how much our friendship really means.

This has been a riveting episode.
