This looks kind of interesting £52.10 inc P&P, they are just over  
halfway to crowd funding target, they need another 800 people to back  
them to get it made.

I'm tempted to take a punt, what do people think?

"Own-Mailbox is a personal email server you can run in your own home,  
with strong privacy protection measures integrated at its core. It  
provides self-hosted email addresses, or connects with your existing  
email address. In both cases, you can seamlessly send and receive  
encrypted emails from anywhere in the world, through the Own-Mailbox  
webmail interface, through a smartphone app, or using external email  
software (such as Thunderbird or Outlook).

Own-Mailbox, is very easy to set-up and use - as easy as a GMail account.

Own-Mailbox automatically encrypts your emails using Gnu Privacy  
Guard, a strong encryption software. This is the same software that  
has been used by Edward Snowden (as shown in the movie citizenfour).

Own-Mailbox allows you to send and receive 100% confidential messages  
even with people who don't use email encryption yet. For this purpose  
we introduce PLM, a new technique that allows you to send a filtered  
and temporary HTTPS link to your contacts. This link points to your  
private message hosted on your Own-Mailbox."
