To compare it with CryptoCat is unfair to MailVelope.  As I understand
things, CryptoCat has an ongoing reliance on server integrity.  On the
other hand, MailVelope is self-contained once securely installed, thus
providing true peer-to-peer confidentiality and authentication
(assuming that the correspondents have confirmed keys out-of-band).

Please correct this if in error.
