Encryption Masking [image-based steganography]
We need email obfuscation [subject, template body, encryption]

Interesting idea, but IMHO its out of scope for delta.chat, there are third party apps that can do this.

Why do you need steganography when you have encryption? And if your delta chat suddenly starts to send unencrypted images, it is obvious that you are sending hidden messages in them.

Obscure is not secure

Unless you mean insert an encrypted payload into an obscured container. But then you are only hiding from casual observers.

The operator can block messages of the same type with files as suspected spam. Strictly speaking, using delta chat may violate the user agreement.

yes, but I need both sending via mail and encryption and obfuscation and chat format.

Of course, you don’t have to give up encryption, I thought it was obvious.
