Lavabit gives users a brief chance to download their lost email

Lavabit CEO Ladar Levison was forced into a difficult decision: give the FBI access to all his customers' email, or shut down his business. He chose to pull the plug — but in so doing, left those same paying customers without access to their stored conversations. Now, Lavabit hopes to give that data back. Starting today at 7PM Central, users have a 72 hour window to change their password in case it was compromised, and get a new SSL key in return. On Friday, October 18th at 7PM Central, users should be able to download an archive of their stored email messages.
