Much of what is commonly said about #email and #openpgp is wrong. It can very well be fast and secure and that's a claim backed by working code and deployments and audits (#chatmail servers and the #deltachat family of apps).

There is however much room for further improvements including deep changes in how we commonly understand email today. Stay tuned :)
