  1. Periodic update on me checking on projects for #SelfHosting #anonymous #email forwarding services
    - #SimpleLogin github.com/simple-login/app/ - python, docker, can plug it into OIDC, project owned by ProtonMail
    - #Addy github.com/anonaddy/anonaddy/ - PHP, docker optional, webserver can pass user in headers, integrating with SSO that way. Less active than above
    - #MailX github.com/ivpn/mailx - golang, docker, currently no support for external users

  2. Argh! I'm trying to do a few things in Linux and every single hit suggests something that I know won't work, and Google keeps offering me the same pointless but incorrect advice.

    Lots of subtle differences between the command line options of the various emailers...

  3. Dear GNU/Linux users. If you are using SSMTP and want to forward local users mails to an external email address do yourself a favor and install bsd-mailx and configure /etc/mail.rc accordingly.

    Why you ask? Because it took me like FOREVER to figure shit out. The /etc/ssmtp/revaliases don't do what I expected from it since days.

    After installing bsd-mailx and configuring /etc/mail.cf it finally worked (again).

  4. @djmoch I'm having the same thought, as I'm thinking to switch from #mutt to #mailx for mail management.

  5. I manage files with #vifm, listen music with #ncmpcpp and watch movies with #mpv; I manage my mail with #mutt (but thinking switching to #mailx) and read documents and books with #zathura; my editor is #vim (and yes, I tried #ed the standard editor, but I felt too hardcore) and my image viewer and wallpaper setter it's #feh. I subdivide my workspace with #tmux inside multiple #xterms that sit on multiple pages of multiple desktops of my #FVWM.
