Mail · Chat · Calls · Calendar · PGP E2E — one EU account
Tacitus Mail is an all-in-one private communications hub. Read your Gmail, Outlook,
iCloud and @tacitusmail.com mailboxes
in one unified inbox. Place encrypted audio and video calls, exchange 1:1 chat messages,
keep a calendar, notes and contacts — all in the same app, hosted in the European Union,
with zero ads and zero data mining.
Free to start · No credit card · EU-hosted · No ads · PGP encrypted with ProtonMail
Live UI preview · The sidebar accent, background pattern and density are all customisable.
Add Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Proton Bridge, Zoho, Fastmail, GMX, Yandex or AOL in two clicks. Or plug in any custom IMAP/SMTP host. Everything lands in the same unified inbox.
Or any standards-compliant IMAP/SMTP server. Credentials are encrypted at rest with AES before they touch the database.
One account, one sidebar, one notification stream. Mail from every provider you already use, plus chat, calls, calendar, notes and contacts — all talking to the same address book.
Add Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Proton, Fastmail — any IMAP/SMTP mailbox — next to your @tacitusmail.com address. One combined view across every account, conversation threading, filters and attachment scanning with ClamAV.
Real 1:1 messaging between Tacitus users, encrypted with the Olm double-ratchet. Our server only sees ciphertext — the plaintext is decrypted on your device. Keeps working on iOS with push notifications and an offline cache.
WebRTC peer-to-peer calls straight from the inbox. Media never touches our servers — just signalling — and every stream is protected with DTLS-SRTP. Native CallKit integration on iOS so incoming calls ring the lock screen.
Built-in CalDAV calendar with invite handling, rich-text notes, and an address book that auto-captures people you mail. Import your iPhone contacts in two taps. All cross-referenced with the unified inbox.
Every inbound message is scored by Rspamd against Spamhaus, SURBL, URIBL, SpamCop and Barracuda blocklists, plus Bayesian and neural network filters. Postscreen rejects known botnets at the TCP handshake before they waste a byte.
Your mail, chat, calls and calendar are not used to sell ads, train language models, or build a profile of you. Remote tracking pixels are stripped by default, external images are proxied, and there's no third-party JavaScript on the webmail.
All data — mail, attachments, chat, calendar events, notes, contacts — lives on servers inside the European Union and is covered by GDPR. No secondary storage in US clouds, no CDN replication of private content.
First-class SwiftUI app with CallKit integration, APNs push notifications, CallKit call handling, offline chat cache, contact import from the iPhone address book and a compose sheet that matches the web. The web UI works everywhere else.
No servers to run, no command line, no migration script. Sign up, add the mailboxes you already have, and start using everything at once.
Pick a free [email protected] in 30 seconds. Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Spam and a 2 GB quota are provisioned automatically — no configuration wizard.
One-click presets for Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo, Proton Bridge, Zoho, GMX, Yandex, Fastmail and AOL. Or hand-roll any IMAP/SMTP host. Credentials are encrypted at rest with application-level AES before they touch the database.
Compose with a rich editor, start an encrypted 1:1 chat, tap the phone icon for an audio or video call, book a meeting in the built-in calendar. Same account, same sidebar, same notification stream — and on iOS, the same app.
Email providers love weasel words. Here's the plain version — no "zero-knowledge" marketing, no PGP theater, just the actual product.
@tacitusmail.com with STARTTLS on every hop, DKIM signing and DMARC/SPF alignmentHonest caveat: unlike your chat, mail bodies are stored server-side (standard IMAP semantics) so search, sync and sorting work across devices. For recipients without a published PGP key, mail is delivered in plaintext over TLS — the industry standard. When the recipient has a key, we encrypt automatically and show a lock badge in your inbox.
When you compose a message to any ProtonMail, Tuta, or OpenPGP-compatible address, Tacitus Mail automatically looks up their public key using the Web Key Directory (WKD) standard and encrypts with PGP/MIME (RFC 3156). Zero setup. No plugins. No key management.
Tacitus Mail publishes your @tacitusmail.com public key via WKD at
openpgpkey.tacitusmail.com.
ProtonMail, Tuta and other WKD-aware senders fetch your key automatically and encrypt before sending.
When the encrypted message arrives, Tacitus decrypts it server-side using your key and displays
a green PGP-encrypted message badge in your inbox — exactly like ProtonMail shows to its users.
When you hit Send, Tacitus looks up the recipient's public key from their WKD endpoint, falling back to keys.openpgp.org. This happens in milliseconds and is completely invisible.
If a key is found, your message is wrapped in a PGP/MIME (RFC 3156) envelope before it leaves the server. You compose mail normally — we handle the cryptography.
Your @tacitusmail.com key is published at openpgpkey.tacitusmail.com so ProtonMail, Tuta and any WKD client can encrypt to you automatically — no action required on your part.
Automatic encryption with any provider supporting WKD or keys.openpgp.org
No black boxes. Every piece of the stack is well-understood open source — the same tools that run the mail for Fortune 500s and Linux kernel maintainers.
Plus OpenDKIM for outbound signing, Unbound as a local DNSBL resolver, Coturn for WebRTC NAT traversal, and Let's Encrypt for TLS on every hop.
Three reasons we hear most often from early users.
I wanted out of Gmail without losing 15 years of archived mail. Tacitus let me plug in my Gmail IMAP side-by-side with a fresh @tacitusmail.com and migrate on my own schedule. The unified inbox is exactly what I was missing.
We stopped paying for Slack + Google Workspace + Zoom. One Tacitus account per teammate covers mail, 1:1 chat and video calls, and the calendar invites actually sync both ways. It's half the price and we finally own the data.
The Rspamd + Spamhaus stack is the same kind I run for my own clients, pre-tuned and behind a friendly UI. I get maybe 2 pieces of spam a week and I've never had to set up a filter. For a privacy service, that's ridiculous.
