I'm pondering on, instead of self-hosting, buying some #email service.
I need:
- Multiple separate inboxes (NOT aliases!)
- #IMAP / #SMTP, the whole alphabet, I want to use #Thunderbird.
- Not "one of the big guys" like Google/Microsoft/Yahoo/WhatHaveYou
- Protonmail is... Not sure, but their "email addresses" === aliases
- I'm going to have to stick with #SelfHosted am I not?
@protonprivacy We are also looking for a #Senior #Android #engineer: https://grnh.se/2ik1dfd2teu in either #London or #Geneva.
We are ramping up on the development of new #ProtonCalendar apps, written in #Rust using #UniFFI and other goodies... so please share this widely if you know someone who is looking!
We sometimes hire #remote candidates as well, but not often. Everyone is in #Europe, plus/minus 1 timezone. I enjoy this so much: no more late-night meetings with California 馃樃
@protonprivacy We're also #hiring #juniors: https://grnh.se/tfdgi4f2teu, this time in #Skopje, #Barcelona, and #Prague.
This is for the #ProtonMail Inbox team (an umbrella for Mail and #ProtonCalendar where I sit). The Desktop team covers things like #MailBridge, a tool that allows you to setup a local #SMTP and #IMAP server which will transparently decrypt your emails *locally* and let you connect a regular #email client like #Thunderbird or #Outlook. This is #OpenSource: https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-bridge!
Not everyone can or should self-host, but there is a lot of middle ground between self-hosting and putting everything on #AWS.
Federated protocols like #XMPP, #ActivityPub, and #SMTP give you choice.
Question technique.
Je voudrais monter un "petit" service d'emails de type RSS to Newsletter.
En gros pour offrir depuis un service de newsletter sur un site depuis son flux #Rss
Je ne trouve pas de service simple proposant cela et surtout tr猫s RGPD compliant et situ茅 en France/Europe.
Le point qui me bloque c'est de trouver le service de Smtp-relay par lequel passer.
Vous auriez des id茅es/recommandations ?
Ou plus simplement un tel service vous int茅resserait ?

Friends, it finally happened. On August 7th, 2025, the number of spamtraps intended to fool spammers rolled past the number of inhabitants in my home country of Norway. It's time for a retrospective.

In 2013 I wrote up "Maintaining A Publicly Available Blacklist - Mechanisms And Principles" (also https://bsdly.blogspot.com/2013/04/maintaining-publicly-available.html) . TL;DR: blocklisting is a kind of public shaming, be sure your process is verifiable and transparent.

The BIG MAIL operators disappear valid mail. We have all seen it happen.
I am pondering starting a campaign to collect war stories with as much log data and other relevant data as possible in order to write an article which may
evolve to something else.
If you have potentially useful input, I want to hear from you.
