+We are pleased to announce the Bitmask 0.9.2 release. You can refer to `the

-Using the latest Bitmask, Linux users will be able to use our encrypted email
-service, now in beta state! An alpha version for OSX is also available.
+The "Beta" in the Email service means that things are getting more stable, but
+unforeseen issues are still expected to be found, so please use it accordingly.
+We need you to test it as hard as you can, and report any bugs that you find,
+but don't trust it yet in situations where data loss, delivery problems or any
+other errors can put you at risk or otherwise cause major trouble.
-Currently we have a test provider for mail @ https://mail.bitmask.net This
-provider is already bundled with Bitmask for easy access on the wizard. Please
-help us test this and file bug reports here:

-[Pixelated integration news]
+In the standalone bundles beginning with 0.9.2, we are shipping the Pixelated
+Webmail interface. Access via Thunderbird or any other mail client of your
+choice is still supported, but we hope that this modern web interface will make
+the delights of our users.
-The standalone bundles for 0.9.2 include statically compiled binaries for
-OpenVPN 2.3.10 (compiled against PolarSSL 1.3.9) and GnuPG 1.4.20.
