Hello, and thank you for your comment and for explaining how you feel.
What you have said is true but I'm not sure you fully understand how DarwinMail works.
I hope to alleviate your concerns somewhat by explaining.
DarwinMail does request and use your individual access tokens from Googles API servers in order to retrieve your emails.
All the displaying is done on your browser. Any action you take for your emails is done on your browser. Any email you type and send it handled in your browser.
Sure, DarwinMail is hosted on a server (Linode) but that's just to store the DarwinMail website on the internet so you can visit it.
Even without open sourcing the code, you can still see all of the code that does the above managing of your emails in your own browser! Just right click -> Inspect -> Open up the sources tab and you can see it all! It's not hidden!
In fact, search for Sarge's posts on this thread... that gentleman was looking through the code, reporting bugs to me and telling me how to fix them!
Furthermore, Linode does not take security lightly and are trusted by many many companies and individuals. See for yourself:
