Nostr Web Client

Elements of a #nostrmail client i am planning in Damus Mail:

- encrypted, private, no metadata (giftwraps)

- threaded (nip10)

- titled threads (subject tag)

- to,cc,etc (sent to the npub’s inbox relays)

- replaceable event that refer to the “state” of a given thread: is it archived, labels, etc. archived threads don’t appear in inbox

This should be a solid foundation for a nostr mail client, and it could also provide an interface to nip17 dms as well.

This was something I was planning on doing last year but kids and other commitments.

One thing I also thought about for a nostr mail protocol was:

- Nostr mail “profile” event that has a separate public key

- layers of trust for receiving mail

- proof of work used to prevent spam with a global minimum and potentially higher pow for “strangers”
