INTRODUCTION
Phantasma is the next-generation content sharing protocol. Just like Gmail,Yahoo-mail, Yadex mail and so on but this will be built on blockchain technology.
Phantasma claim to be doing what other mails are doing, most especially "Gmail". I am so glad about this because, before and after cryptocurrency have been into existence people have been keeping important messages on their mail, now that cryptocurrency have come into existence more things to keep have come into crypto-lovers mind. People havebeen keeping files, messages and private key, important photos,videos, and so on. Which bump up hacker and scammer mind for looking for ways to get access into people email account. If hacker can get access into peoples emails they believe they can get into people bank account, cryptocurrency wallets, special documents and so much more.
With Phantasma mail, it will be very hard for scammers to get into user email because one will have to sign up with his or her NEO wallet private key and we all know people keep there private key than they keep there bank ATM card. Hahaha. In short, Phantasma mail is very secure.
My Suggestion;
Everything good must have a weaken place, some part are yet to be added to Phantasma mail and there is no traces that team plan to add them to the application soon or sooner.
- Draft:- Like I have say before, people keep important files on e-mail and every file or message type and not sent out will be save under DRAFT. On phantasma mail there is nothing like Draft, no place to save a message except if user send the message out. Which is while I am suggesting to the team to add a Draft to the application.
Usefulness Of Draft:- Email are more than just sending and receiving messages for some users, sometimes user will just type or scan a file and keep them on his mail.
With draft, Users will be able to save messages and files on the phantasma mail even if they don't send them out, just as it is on other electronic mail.
Examples of what Draft look like.
Where Draft Should Be Added To.
- Signing up and Logging in:- When someone just download the Phantasma application, User will need to sign up using NEO wallet private key. After used and close the application one will need to put his private key again to log into the application. There should be a way that users will put a special pin or password which will be use to log into phantasma mail instead of the
private key way.
Reason why I come up with this suggestion is that, normally I understand they want this mail to be more safer for users or third party getting into it, but since private key is not something one can be exposing anyhow, if users will have to be logging into the mail with private key always, users might one day lick his Private Key out unaware and this will be so bad because it will cause a lose in two places (All cryptocurrencies store in wallet will lost and private files get into third party hands).
There should be an addition segment while signing up where users can add pin or password for logging in instead of the using private key always.
Usefulness Of Logging password:- With a password set, User will not be signing up always whenever he want to read, send, or save messages. Also, using private key to log in always can make careless users to lick his private key into third party hand which will be very dangerous.
- Spam Folder:- I believe this will be added soon but just in case Phantasma team don't have it in their plan is the reason while I am adding the suggestion here.
Some unwanted messages can be send to users sometimes, I still don't know how gmail and others email use to know those unwanted mail messages but once they are send to user, those messages automatically store in Spam Folder for some period of time before they will permanently delete. They keep these messages for the main time in case user will like to read them.
I am suggesting they add this feature to the application in case they don't have it in the project plan.
Usefulness Of Spam Folder:- It reduce the stress of users opening unwanted messages like spamming massages, mails with scamming link and so on. And also
save users from getting hack by hacking messages which could contain scamming links.
Example Of What Spam Look Like.
Where Spam Should Be Added To.
CONCLUSIONS:- All these features are very important and those are what users will love to see on any Email they are to use. Phantasma mail is still new and have a few users. With those features they will get more users.
