people talking about making self-hosting mail more accessible to set up and run day-to-day.
<dream>
turn this hairball: 😩
- clamd
- dovecot
- fail2ban
- postfix
- rspamd
- apache / nginx
- mysql
- sogo
- solr
into this:
./smallmail-server
implement SMTP & IMAP, secure and encrypted by default, forget "enterprise" & scale-out features, bake in backups.
</dream>
@quirk halfway motivated to start hacking on it, but I feel like it would be hell to get over the hump of being 'works hackishly well most of the time' to 'works with the majority of other mail servers'.
especially trying to enforce sane and secure defaults.
@adasauce Yeah, c'est la vie. 😞
