Are you saying that you got your SMTP working? I've not been able to for about 2 years 😭

We even host our own email service.

@mattly

It was, now its owned by a corporation who will sell your software back to you.

@BeAware @damon

The man has always been a joke, maybe people will see it now. Less than half hour and I'm going to need some major meditation tonight 😂

@BeAware

Actually, I'm seeing a lot of hashtags but so many different ones 😭

@BeAware

It never stopped on the corporate systems, what makes you think it would stop here?

@BeAware

I make sure my bots only post once an hour for the same reasons 😂

@BeAware

Not 💯 sure but I think it stops everything from them. 🤔

@inthehands @joshuaphilll

What county, state, City, please

@BeAware

I made a PHP/MySQL program last month that shows who is following vs who I'm following if you would like to check it out 😜 I've removed most of the accounts from my list that doesn't follow back, some of them are dead or moved accounts. Really makes it easier but not fancy. If you want, you can even install it from GitHub. I've not used it with ngnix or that other database but ...

@BeAware

How many people are on your instance? Part of why we aren't getting slammed is that we have about 20 and very few are active, no one as active as me 😂

@BeAware

With almost 30,000 instances and over 1M active users, it doesn't matter to me except that good people might be getting blocked 😭

@BeAware
Google and Yahoo won't except emails from mpaq.org because someone at some time put our IP on multiple spam lists, as 1 example.

I like the idea of blocking Damian names, not IPs

@BeAware

I'm still trying to get our IP off those lists and we've done nothing to be put on them 😡

@BeAware

Wow!!! That is almost every instance out there.

@BeAware

Yes, Mastodon is ngnix 😭. Some of the other ActivityPub systems use Apache/MySQL but Mastodon is NGINX/PostgreSQL and a pain in the astroids 😂

@BeAware

NGNIX is so complicated, I'd avoid it even more than I, if I could 😂

Our central "name server" is ngnix and our network admin runs it. If/when I have a problem on the Beamship ngnix, I have to get him to look at it.

I've been using Apache for years and find it easy.

@BeAware

Tell me about it. Had a program working yesterday but it broke today 😞

@BeAware
We discussed threads but so far... We only have like 8 active users per month so, we haven't gotten enough attention from the scumbags yet 😂

I watch Beamship like a hawk 😉

@BeAware @jbzfn 😂 although 666 has a different meaning for me, yep

@BeAware @knowprose

I'm a Dessert Storm vet and over 12 years on the streets now. Up until recently, I carried a copy of the US Constitution everywhere and had read it so much that it was decaying.

Everyday I witness local, state and federal government take away the US Constitution that I swore to defend from homeless people. I'm not into politics, only the sickness I see everyday.

I've been in a lot of protests and such but when I see a homeless camp swept and no one is fighting or I see things like what is going on at colleges for a completely different country but not one person will put that kind of effort into protecting a homeless person...
