“1. Reliability: When opening any emails they are missing the body in almost everything - fixed 2.

Why this is a gap
Surfaced from a high-intensity complaint with clear willingness to pay and a specific, reachable audience.
The market
Privacy-conscious email users seeking Gmail alternatives who need reliable delivery and service registration support. No search volume data provided, so demand scale is unclear, but the pain signals point to a small, frustrated subset rather than mass-market pull.
Competition & the opening
Proton Mail, Tutanota, and Hey already occupy the privacy email space; the gap is not privacy itself but email reliability (missing bodies, service registration blocks) that these competitors apparently don't solve consistently.
What's hard to build
SMTP/IMAP delivery and ISP reputation are genuinely hard—getting through corporate spam filters and enabling Samsung/social media account registration requires either white-label carrier relationships or solving a chicken-egg problem where you lack sender reputation. Feasibility 5/10 suggests infrastructure and carrier negotiation will be the bottleneck.
Why now
Email clients still struggle with MIME rendering and domain whitelisting despite decades of standards; privacy-first email has growing demand.
