Mail:
- messages going from one sender to receiver(s)
- works on a message by message basis
- no need for a group state
- no need for anyone to be the owner of the communication channel
- ability to not accept replies (and communicate that!)
- ability to set a price on your inbox
- privacy slightly less important
DMs:
- needs a channel of communication (who owns it?)
- privacy vaugueness
Why not just spin up a Private Group for two instead, and leave the option open to get bot npubs invlved etc... ?
