@homegrown and then I have to recommend purelymail https://purelymail.com/

Very cheap, very good, surprisingly reliable (i have had outages with mailfence, never purelymail).

@silverwizard you get a lot of mail?

@feld @LexPendragon @LJ are you sure? But mailbox wants all that in one big file.... It should be much easier to handle in maildir and then indexed maybe in sqlite? At least that's what i thought...

@LexPendragon @LJ why did maildir never catch on? Mbox seems so... Backwards complex?

Honest question: colleagues 10 years older often had contact with the bare metal. It seemed you needed to know some electronics actually. Systems where local. Then my generation is the sql greybeards and everything is connected and everything is data. Now everything is 10 abstractions away in x-as a service cloud. Simple solutions require 3 specialized people and takes many hundred hours. And maybe because of this, the distance from customer to code, is bigger than ever.

Am I wrong?

@liaizon @cinebox ok. I tried https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22pleorama%22%20%22right%20wing%22&ko=-1&ia=web but didn't really find anything.

@liaizon @cinebox what is the problem with pleorama? Why are people associating software with right wing politics?

@7 Wouldn't you prefer a good game of chess?
