I want to be completely transparent here. Mephisto currently utilizes a few different upstream providers (including Guerrilla Mail and 1secmail) via a custom proxy layer to ensure high availability. The goal of this project isn't to build a new mail protocol from scratch, but to provide a hardened, cookie-free, and zero-persistence 'privacy frontend' that bridges the gap between these APIs and the end-user.

Regarding the AI claim: I've used modern dev tools to speed up the React/TypeScript implementation, but the architecture (RAM-only storage, IndexedDB caching, and PWA focus) is a deliberate design choice I've made to solve specific privacy frustrations I had with existing services. I appreciate the call for better attribution, and I'll be updating the 'About' section to clearly credit all upstream providers.

You got it. This is AI Slop at it's worst. And even the replies from the author reeks of AI. I read some of the source code, and it is slop, which I would never trust without scrutiny. Carefully read just the first words of benmxrt:

You're right that the current beta…

That is a great point

Absolutely agree with both of you

That is an intriguing feature request

That’s a very fair point

You hit the nail on the head

Great question

That is a valid point

Sharp eye
