We've been operating for more than six months. Maybe we're taking advantage of sigaint closing to make advertisement, it's a good strategy (right?). And about the interface... It's the interface of the mail manager. Sigaint and secMail uses squirrelMail, that's why they're similar. You can test it in your server if you want. There are anthers, like roundCube, but coding one from scratch would be almost impossible.

Hey secMail service providers,

It's cool that you've been operating that long. A quick question about monetization: how are you funding your service? Is it through ad revenue or does your service have a signup cost or pro version?

Taking advantage of Sigaint's disappearance is a smart tactic for some demographics, but not others. I tend to put myself into the shoes of an attacker.

If I was interested in targeting the users of Sigaint, I would make another service similar to it. I would then advertise lightly. Then I would attack sigaint and take it down, creating demand. Then I would advertise heavily.

Don't get me wrong, I am not accusing you of being a government shill or something, I just think your advertising strategy has the opposite effect with people like me. Plus, and I mean no offense by this, but I don't trust your service yet. We'll see how things play out.

Thanks for your time!

I'm sure that the government is not behind sigaint disappearance. We neither. I think that the admins of sigaint have decided to disappear, otherwise, the would have left a message on reddit with their signature. We are planning to release a premium service & ads revenue soon, our servers are cheap and we don't need too much funding by now. (Like one wise man said one: We don't know what we have yet). I hope you will trust our service soon. Just try it if you want.
