Just a quick add: even for my self hosted services, I configure Postfix with Mailgun for SMTP relay for alerts and whatnot just to ensure delivery to my external mail provider.

Edit: a few words for clarity

Just passing along what I’ve read many times: that self hosting email can be difficult. Particularly sending, because the large providers tend to treat email from less known sources with more skepticism (such as by marking as spam), even with properly configured SPF and DKIM.

And if your server is down, you may miss any incoming mail for the duration. I don’t know if other providers would try resending after a period of time if the receiver is unreachable, but I doubt it (just an educated guess).

I love self hosting services but email is something I’ve decided not to touch with a ten foot pole.

I dunno, they’re eyeing you like YOU might be on the menu before long.

+1 for Fastmail.

I’ve been using it for about 3 years. I’m on the Standard plan (middle tier). It’s $4.20/mo. per user when prepaying for 3 years and ranges up to $5.40/mo. for monthly billing.

Not sure if there’s a (practical) limit on domains or aliases, but I have 7 domains and a few aliases plus a wildcard. Includes 30GB of storage per user.

I read “server” as computer server and was really confused…

The “collapse” of the government in a parliamentary system means the government no longer commands the confidence of a majority of the (typically) lower house, in this case the House of Representatives. Nothing immediate happens, although the prime minister may (or may not) resign, a “caretaker” government takes over until a new elections are held.

Here, it sounds like one of the four coalition parties has pulled out due to disagreeemnt over immigration, which the coalition parties had never agreed on.

That feels like my day.

There’s a new /c/oneorangebraincell community that would love to see this guy.

Nothing wrong with a bit of competition

Totally agree

I just joined lemmy.world a few days ago and already subbed to /c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml. This community seems pretty active.

I only mention this because i just came across this post: What are you guys doing when there’s multiple communities for the same thing across instances?

(I’m not sure yet the best or recommened way to link directly to a post.)

This highlights the point in that post. I’m certainly not disuading anyone from joining this new community and hope everyone finds the best one that fits them. I’ll keep my eye on your new community. Good luck!
