More and more I am looking through @Delta Chat apps and resources I believe this should become number one messenger of choice for screen reader users.
The developers are constantly improving its #a11y. It's secure from the start of using.
Additionally the desktop chat has under gone an #accessibility audit and accessibility issues are clearly documented in public.
I am not sure other messenger style app on the planet has such dedicated commitment to accessibility ever.

it's correct that the current chatmail relays require port 25 to be reachable. There are some discussions around other server-to-server transports, reflected in github.com/chatmail/relay/issu… even if mostly talks about Tor. The email system is traditionally pretty flexible about transports, especially server-to-server ones. There are also some deployments that use uucp for long range radio based transporting between MTAs.

@clv0 Yes, it works great for chatting between Delta users. I was hoping, however, that I might be able to chat with my regular e-mail contacts, using Delta as a more convenient interface to achieve that while they use whatever they usually do to access their emails. I believe the default server requires authentication on both sides so Delta needs to be used on both ends.

@Paweł Masarczyk While testing I have used gmail or my own classic email account. It worked but I have understood using #chatmail servers is what makes it most attractive. I think I have read a blogpost from someone a few months ago explaining this very well that inspired me, however I can't find that article in my browser history right now. CC @Cleverson @Delta Chat

@Paweł Masarczyk @Cleverson I know you are looking for a way to stay in contact with people you are already connected to using traditional email. Still I would recommend creating a #chatmail account on your relay of choice just for testing so you can start with an empty profile and you'll get to experience the @Delta Chat the way it has been meant to. Then as an exercise continue with other more advanced scenarios such as classic email login.
The #chatmail based onboarding is really very simple, there is nothing to do wrong.
