Postfix does SMTP.

I’ve been hosting my own email server having 4 domains (one is business-related) for 6 years. I don’t have any problems, because I know what I do.

In case it’s a help. The stack is: Postfix (SPF-support), Dovecot (Sieve), OpenDKIM, OpenDMARC and rspamd. I also recommend fail2ban, because an open infrastructure is hammered on very often.

Of course TLS is needed, so nginx with acme.sh as combo does the job fine.

Backups are also essential. I like restic. CLI tools are automated very easy.

I don’t think, it’s much. My setup is very generic, but maybe it’s already too overwhelming for some people.

Here is also Et Cetera: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Et_Cetera_(manga)

So, how do I access it from my gaming room?

I’ve been using Sieve on Dovecot (Pidgeonhole) for years and it’s great. Earlier I had Procmail, which is fine, too. The only disadvantage is that I’d need to login on my server to edit the rules, while Sieve is directly editable in email clients.

Yes. I selfhost it. It’s pretty easy. All you need to know is that you occasionally need to merge your config with the original that is getting updated.

If you know how to use nvim diff mode, it’s trivial.

On FreeBSD it’s also -a or -A for shorter output.

I’m also missing the smart tabular output here, because it’s easier to read and allows to inspect the source of the errors. Maybe it’s because it’s SAS?

It’s also not uncommon in enterprises that things break needlessly.

Next time, when you make major changes like ZFS upgrade, create a checkpoint and keep it for a while. You can roll back everything, even the pool version.

I personally like to run ZFS on a bare metal server, just the plain OS, no further “NAS” or virtualization software.

I don’t really know what your use cases are, so I cannot tell if it’s adequate for you.

Just one thing, never enter your personal passwords on someone elses computer.

A domain with DNS access costs around 2€ a year. Just buy your own and generate certificates with Acme.

I only get crap results when using the public SearXNG instances. It’s far better when I use my own container.

I didn’t notice google results are gone. But I also don’t care. If they rely on your metadata to give you results, it’s obvious they are violating privacy.

I honestly have no idea if the iOS app works properly.

I’ve got Wireguard running. As soon I am on wifi, my phone uploads the new pictures.

I tried Photoprism, Ente and Immich.

Immich is by far the best. It has got an app that really does what it should do, has an AI that actually works and is easy to host and to update.

First layer is done by Postscreen (by Postfix). It watches bots misbehaving, check blackhole DNS and disconnects them. Fail2ban takes care of bots who cause errors and warnings in logs and bans them. Third layer is SPF and DKIM. If it does not match, it’s getting flagged.

If someone conforms to protocols and passes the tests, there is still rspamd on the fourth layer. It does zillions of checks on the metadata and additionally learns via bayes. Dovecot moves all the crap to Junk and inserts the valid mails into their proper folders.

The fifth layer is me. If some junk mail arrives in the inbox, I move it to Junk manually and Dovecot tells rspamd to learn it as spam.

I use Rustdesk to access PCs and embedded devices from other PCs and embedded devices. Mostly doing remote support to avoid driving.

It’s easy to set up with a container-based server.

I don’t have to care about licenses and crap like that. It just works.

Ich glaube sie haben gegen eine Prüfung der AfD gestimmt. Jetzt haben sie die Faschisten gedeckt und sind Mittäter.

Wäre ich langsam gegangen, wäre der Film vorbei.
