Proposal for Mozilla Email Domain

[Teknevra]

Dear Mozilla Team,

I am reaching out with a compelling proposal to establish a dedicated Mozilla Email Domain, providing users with addresses like JohnDoe@Mozilla.com, or equivalent.

This initiative aims to go beyond the capabilities of Thunderbird, creating a full-fledged email Domain service comparable to mainstream providers such as Gmail and Outlook.

This endeavor aligns with Mozilla's commitment to user privacy and security, offering a trustworthy alternative in the competitive email service landscape.

The Mozilla Email Domain would not only strengthen the brand but also unify the user experience within the Mozilla ecosystem, reinforcing the values of openness and user-centric design.

By introducing a Mozilla Email Domain, you have the opportunity to offer users a seamless, secure, and privacy-focused email solution.

This service would stand as a testament to Mozilla's dedication to empowering users with alternatives that prioritize their digital well-being.

With features such as integrated security measures, cross-device compatibility, and a commitment to minimal ads, the Mozilla Email Domain could become a cornerstone of trust for users seeking a reliable and privacy-respecting email experience.

Expand relay to create full mozmail E-mail 

[Schñarf]

Yes!! +1 for sure, and very well-written. Thank you for submitting!

[LeMajstor]

Yes, please. but i dont think Mozilla would use the mozila.com domain for emails but the mozmail.com instead. Just like google with gmail.com

[MattAuSupport]

Got to wonder how this grand plan would be funded? What would a reasonably cost me email address be each year, given Mozilla will not use your personal information as the medium of exchange as Yahoo, Google, Outlook etc do.  Who is going to pay, and how much is reasonable.

It could offer a opportunity to greatly overhaul Thunderbird and boost it's popularity so people aware of it as a email client they would actually want to use.

[FlameStoat]

Interesting idea. I reckon the main obstacle would be competing with ProtonMail

[LeMajstor]

@MattAuSupportgood point. I think it would be reasonably only for donaters at first?

[Schñarf]

I would pay for this.

[renasbako]

Thanks for this idea, its really useful and necessary

[wutongtaiwan]

I agree

[wutongtaiwan]

If Mozilla has an email service, I hope it can be used by Chinese

[JaimeZ]

Voting FOR this proposal.  I think I've been Google searching for Firefox and Mozilla email service for 10+ years!  I want it to exist.

Mozilla mail as in Gmail.

With all the things going on in BigTech, is it not time for Mozilla to think about building further on Thunderbird by providing email services?
