[ Initial List ]
An updated wish list for a so called “security” update (hopefully):.
1. at least an encrypted email account password, rather whole db (especially on desktop version)
2. a note in the connection dialog about the connection methods (see post above)
3. missing connection option authentication method “Encrypted password”
(see maybe thunderbird connect options for other methods)
4. choosable install path (desktop version)
5. give password stars shown a fix length regardless of the real length of password
6. profile name “My name” with hint text: “(if set this is transferred in the headers too)”
7. an “Emtpy”-button to empty DeltaChat folder on the server manually (without any logic,
only and only for an existing DeltaChat folder, if it does not exists nothing happens)
8. padding each message content with hidden random data (posts start with)
9. make-veryfied-contact-more-visible
10. Backup Verification Test Tool (check that an export does not fail on import)
11. durable warning signs on changes (possible MITM) until new verification/approval
Feel free adding points to the list or with other questions/discussion regarding encryption/security/privacy.
