By now, you've likely heard about the Jeffrey Epstein email document dump that was released last week by the House Oversight Committee. Saturday Night Live, The Daily Show, everyone has been talking about the emails and some of the more interesting revelations. OpenAI even lost a member of its board, Larry Summers, after he resigned following the email release, which revealed he was in constant contact with Epstein.
As released, the Epstein email documents are basically just hundreds of individual text files, scanned PDFs, and images containing the contents of those emails. It was hard to sift through — until now.
On Friday, creator Riley Walz, who Wired describes as a "prankster," and developer Luke Igel released Jmail, a recreation of Jeffery Epstein's email inbox. Jmail is essentially a Gmail clone interface that looks and acts as if you're viewing Epstein's emails via his jeevacation@gmail account through his actual email inbox.

But Jmail isn't just visually stunning in its presentation of these Epstein emails. It actually makes the emails incredibly easy to search through as well. The search box at the top of the page can actually be used to find names, keywords, and other information in specific emails. The Inbox and Sent pages separate the emails that Epstein both sent and received. The Starred page acts as a crowdsourced compilation of what visitors found to be the most interesting missives. A People section in the sidebar presents itself as a contact list of all the most notable individuals who interacted with Epstein in the emails included in this dump.
Jmail is really an ingenious project that combines art and web development to create a journalistic research tool.
