Their about page: "Inspired in the ways of the medieval Knights Templar, this service was created to provide an anonymous and end-to-end encrypted email to anyone who needs their communications shielded from prying eyes. We at CTemplar recognize the value in cryptography and cryptocurrency, hence the name “CTemplar” or “Crypto Templar”.

Our mission is to provide an anonymous E2EE (End to End Encrypted) email. No one except you and your recipient can read the contents of your emails, not even us.

      I know this is a fairly old post but… How does one do that? I know that hosting your own is probably the best thing you can do, but how? And would it even be nearly as effective?

    They recently lost access to all users’ accounts, including mines, you had to talk to them to create one again but still it was a shitshow. They look okay except for that, though.

    Would never support anything called “Templar” lol. Like, “Oh hey, let’s promote an infamous medieval terrorist organization.”
