Release notes for version 0.1.0 :

    o this release has known deficiencies that make it unsuitable for
      people requiring strong anonymity.
    o all control messages described in the specifications[1] are
      supported with the exception of ERROR, POLICY and CREATE2 which
      are silently dropped. The lack of support of the POLICY control
      message imply in particular that synopsis may stay unencrypted
      on the server for an unbounded period of time.
    o the server does not implement filtering policies.
    o the server does not decide to send synopsis or emails from
      itself, the user must make an explicit request. The same goes
      for email deletion.
    o stale user accounts may live forever on the server.
