## What is NEAR Email?

near.email is a blockchain-native email service for the NEAR ecosystem. Every NEAR account automatically has a corresponding email address: if your account is  `alice.near`, your email is  `alice@near.email`.

You can send and receive emails to/from any regular email address (Gmail, Outlook, etc.) while enjoying the security benefits of blockchain-based identity and end-to-end encryption.

near.email is built on  [NEAR Outlayer](https://outlayer.fastnear.com/)  — a platform for verifiable off-chain computation with TEE attestation. This means every operation is cryptographically proven to run correct code inside a hardware-protected environment.

Server runs in a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) — even operators can't access your data
