I'm pretty sure magma is basically the original Lavabit code.

Still will lead to lots of development in the area. I didn't even think of working with something like this due to the learning curve, but this might help kickstart that.

Where's the original Lavabit?

I would imagine a stipulation of the original subpoena would involve not sharing the source of Lavabit. It sounds as though what Ladar has done is re-engineer Lavabit in the form of Dark Mail to bypass any gag orders.

I don't it. LE should love a fundamentally insecure design like Lavabit to get picked up.

When I looked at the Dark Mail draft it was incompatible with regular email. And the trust models it has were basically the same as you'd get with Gmail today. End to end remained difficult (of course).

Plus it has weird stuff. Like a field for political party on all contacts or something.
