@alex @delta Is it not the case that the only way to use an "approved" e-mail server for "transit" is to receive messages addressed to/from your mailbox on that server?

    @ben @delta oh, I think I did a bad job explaining what I mean: The idea is that you have 2 mailboxes: one foo@bar.tld in allow-listed provider and second one outside the country, i.e baz@gmail.com or other major email provider. Usually there is no restrictions for email traffic outside the country to this destinations. While you can’t access gmail directly, you emails still cab. So your traffic flows foo@bar.tld → baz@gmail.com → chatmail sever and routed back chatmail → baz@gmail.com → foo@bar.tld So there is no direct exchange between chatmail servers and allowlisted servers inside the country. Mass email scanning is not here yet, but transit level traffic filtering is slowly being rolled out Also it does not expose your bare email address as contact address for DC
