The entire video is simply a terminal session, not even doing any curses-like. Why not just paste the terminal session output in a <pre> block? Would have saved me 1:15.
Also, bug report: If you seek to very close to the end, the timer shows 1:21 and keeps counting with nothing happening on the screen... I was wondering why he didn't hit enter after typing "ls matte" and let the timer run to 2 minutes...
It says secure, but I see no mention of encryption or legal protections that would make it so. If you're going to use the word 'secure', it has to mean more than "hosted in a country that is known to bow to the USA."
Hey, Chris & Matt here. We are the guys behind developermail.io and we really appreciate all your comments and feedback! We are in a private beta phase at the moment and will be sending invitation keys to more people very soon.
There were a lot of questions regarding security and privacy, so we preponed the release of the updated website. Please check it out and let us know what you think: developermail.io
You can reach out to us at support@developermail.io also.
Have a great week and thanks for your support!

This isn't a recent term at all? Back in the 90's people were selling dedicated, unmanaged hardware as "bare metal" servers. Bare metal simply refers to the fact that they're handing you an assembled server only -- you need to install an OS and configure it.
I'm not German, but I understand Germany is very strong in the personal rights department and have a serious separation between government and state, which minimizes the influence of the gov-of-the-day on business matters -- maybe I'm wrong here (again: not German), but I understood Merkel's government freaking out about the possibility of Snowden asking asylum in Germany because, despite the governmental dislike, it was a State affair and they couldn't do nothing to prevent it if he reached German territory.
Anyway, I feel Germany is a wonderful country and this kind of marketing is somewhat of a international recognition for that.
Is it a selling point with much substance, though? Genuinely curious. Seems to me that if the American government wanted your data for some reason, obtaining it from Germany wouldn't be so hard.
I am not an expert on these matters, but I would imagine that the process for legally obtaining data from foreign countries is both more difficult and more public (a National Security Letter would have no teeth in Germany). Additionally, Germany has a better reputation (perhaps unearned?) for privacy rights, especially as the greatest pillar of the liberal EU, and because when the NSA bugged Merkel's cell phone they soured the intelligence relationship considerably.
I live in Germany. It appears to me that the outrage from the government was largely theatre for the public, than serious. There is an election coming up.
Postfix when installed has pretty good defaults and works safely pretty much out of the box. Are people actually looking for third-parties like developermail when it's really not that hard?
