Oh, by the way, if I'm one of your subscribers on Substack and you see me unsubscribe, it's not you... it's not me either... It's mostly Substack and the fact that I'd like to regain control of my mailbox (and stop missing the actual emails I need to reply to and that get drowned into all the Substack posts)
If I read you, don't worry, I still follow you and read you in my RSS feed (actually it's more likely that I'll read you there than in my inbox)
🚀 Excited to share my expanded consulting services! From Debian systems, Asterisk VoIP, and LDAP integration to mastering email server setups for unbeatable deliverability. I've run email for a hosting company, ensuring top-notch SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records. Ready to elevate your IT infrastructure? Let's chat!
Well I have done it. I have finished my move to Proton. The final bit was moving my iCloud email over and I just did that. All my emails are now going to my proton account, even my domain email.
So, that makes email and passwords/passkeys that I’ve divorced Apple of. That will probably be it though for the foreseeable future as my family is quite engulfed in the Apple ecosystem for our workflow.
I wonder if it would be possible to configure my #postfix mail server to reject emails from #GMail and #Microsoft (replying they are not accepted because of spying users) 🤔
Is it a good idea? Is there anybody doing that?
I know it will cut me out of many contacts but I really don't want to be targeted by their algorithms.
I have a question about spam. I have been de-Goolefing my life as much as possible. I've shifted my email from gmail to my personal domain email hosted at HostGator. My domain registrar is Hover. I'm using Thunderbird, in plain text mode, on a Linux box. An email, containing no links, sent to a Yahoo address ended up marked as spam. Any thoughts on why? I've never used my domain to send emails, therefore, I assume, it can't be listed in any spam filters as a spamming domain, right? #email
Grosse envie de (re)faire un filtre #sieve pour répondre automatiquement aux gens qui m'envoient des courriels depuis #Gmail que, s'ils s'en tapent de leur propre vie privée, ben c'est pas mon cas.
Et qu'en conséquence, s'ils veulent que je les lise et que je leur réponde, il va falloir qu'ils se servent d'un autre service d'#email.
Conventional Email security tools are far from enough these days, You need to attach some sort of AI/ML processing. I know I personally am targeted with very specific and curated phishing attempts as a content creator several times a month. Avanan so far has caught the majority of these to the tune of 95+% accuracy.
Lots of companies tell me to add their #email address to my safe/trusted senders list. I have never done this. Do I have such a list? How do I add to it? No idea.
If someone is CCed in an email you receive, and you respond to that email, it’s common knowledge that you’re supposed to reply all to include the CCed person, right? This is a known thing.
I'd second this. If you're the sort of person who likes mail written to you, rather than the often tangential involvement in receiving a carbon copy of mail to someone else, then you may try to spare others from receiving such carbon copies themselves. Or you might have no strong feelings, and as was already mentioned, your email client's reply button default is just repy-to-sender-only.
