Microsoft banned Palestinians from its products because they called their families in Gaza on Skype.

I’ve met Palestinians who’ve lost their relatives in Israeli bombardments. People involved in Gaza humanitarian aid.

American corporations can cut them off from essential internet/communication services on a lark.

So I wanted to see if Email could be a good way of me talking to people privately and I can certainly say it is god awful. You barely know what you talked about before and even with the history at the bottom of the email it just get's unreadable after a while.

I really don't know what else to do to help replace Social Media for myself, as only really want to be using Fedi and maybe Email.

Is your inbox stealing your time and focus like your dryer steals socks? Treating your email like you'd ideally treat your laundry (no floor wardrobes here) can help put you in control of your inbox, instead of the other way around.

Today's project: A python module that fetches user profile and before fetching, it decides is a handler is of TheProtocols, email address, website, or ActivityPub. I plan to add feed and interaction support too.

Hey @buttondown I tried to clean up the subscribe page because it has a few problematic accessibility matters on it. For example, when I go to https://buttondown.email/weirdwriter

I plan on submitting a few Pull requests but The submit button appears above the form? Not below? And the subscribe button below the form appears to activate automatically when I tab out of that email edit field and I really would like screen reader users to control that manually. Could you look into this? I'd love to start migrating my mailing list! #Accessibility #Email

What is the best non-invasive and #privacy respecting #email service?

**BSD Mail Project Update!**

Hello everyone! I wanted to share some exciting updates about the development of BSD Mail, our privacy-focused email service designed with robustness, security, and transparency in mind. Here’s a deep dive into the technical choices I've made, focusing on my use of open source solutions and open protocols:

🌍 **Servers & Location**

- We're running on two physical servers:
- One hosted by OVH in France
- Another by Hetzner in Germany
- Both servers operate on FreeBSD with NVMe drives in a ZFS mirror configuration for speed and data integrity.

🔒 **Virtualization & Security**

- We utilize jails on both servers to ensure isolated environments for different services, managed via BastilleBSD. On one server, jails are set up directly on the hardware, whereas the other server employs nested jails.
- Each server hosts a bhyve VM running OpenBSD with OpenSMTPD for handling SMTP duties securely.

🔗 **Networking**

- A Wireguard setup connects the two servers, facilitating routing capabilities so that jails and VMs can communicate seamlessly, supporting both IPv4 and IPv6.

📧 **Email Services**

- **Dovecot** is configured for maildir replication across the servers using Dovecot sync, ensuring email availability and redundancy.
- **Rspamd** instances are tied to local KeyDB jails, set up in master-master replication for consistent and reliable spam detection and greylisting.
- **ClamAV** runs in corresponding jails for virus scanning, maintaining a high level of security.
- **SOGo** provides a web interface for email management, connected to MySQL databases in master-master replication to handle sessions and authentication smoothly.

💾 **Data Management**

- Email data is stored on separate, encrypted ZFS datasets to secure emails at rest.
- MySQL databases are used for storing credentials and managing sessions for SOGo, also in a master-master replication setup. Importantly, all passwords are securely hashed using bcrypt, ensuring they are salted and safe.

🔎 **Monitoring & Reliability**

- Our DNS is managed through BunnyNet, which continuously monitors our server status. Should one server—or a specific service—become unavailable, DNS configurations are dynamically adjusted to avoid directing users to the affected IP until full service is restored.

🌐 **Commitment to Open Source and Open Protocols**

- Every component of BSD Mail is built exclusively using open source software and open protocols. This commitment is crucial for ensuring data freedom and the reliability of the solutions we use.

This setup not only emphasizes our commitment to privacy and security but also our dedication to maintaining an open and transparent platform.
We're excited to bring you a service where your privacy, data integrity, and freedom are prioritized. Stay tuned for more updates!

I've been getting customer emails from Glyn Hopkins KIA (car dealership) from the UK.

I'm in Toronto.

I get personal customer information, appointment schedules, transaction emails, everything.

I've tried to unsubscribe, contact them directly, sending straight to junk mail - nothing seems to stop these emails from reaching my inbox. They come from different addresses, different people, different marketing lists.

So stupid!
