There's also an on-going effort to implement this feature into the
Tor2web software:
https://github.com/globaleaks/Tor2web-3.0/issues/81

I would say that the features will be the same, but the deployment
scenario would be different.

In the tor2mail postfix approach, this can be integrated into any kind
of existing mailserver, while in the Tor2web approach, this would be a
standalone SMTP listener for exclusive use.
