Description

Private chat-style messaging can be built on top of ordinary email accounts in a desktop application. It is useful for users who want Delta Chat conversations without requiring a separate centralized chat service.

This Git build handles email credentials, contacts, message content, and encryption-related behavior. Privacy depends on account setup, providers, recipient support, and how backups are handled.

How to run

deltachat

Commands: deltachat
