E-mail

Disroot provides secure email accounts for your desktop client or via a web interface. The communication between you and the mail server is encrypted with SSL, providing as much privacy as possible. Furthermore, all the emails being sent out from our server are encrypted as well (TLS) if the recipients email server supports it. This means that emails are no longer sent as traditional "postcard", but are actually put in an "envelope".

Nevertheless, we encourage you to always be cautious when using email communication, and to make use of GPG end-to-end encryption to ensure your correspondence is as private as can be.

Delimiters: You can use delimiters (plus sign, "+") in your email address to create sub-addresses, like username+whatever@disroot.org, for example for filtering and tracking spam. Example: david@disroot.org can set up mail addresses like 'david+bank@disroot.org' that he could give to his bank. It can be used only to receive emails, not to send ones. Your emails will always be sent as david@disroot.org.

What is encryption

Encryption is when you change data with a special encoding process so that the data becomes unrecognizable (it's encrypted). You can then apply a special decoding process and you will get the original data back. By keeping the decoding process a secret, nobody else can recover the original data from the encrypted data.
