#nncp — Public Fediverse posts

@orsinium I know, they stole email from us claiming to combat spam and somehow there is still spam

==Email==

Maybe I only need to receive email over SMTP.

Otherwise email transfer using NNCP with known-trusted-hosts of friends and family?

Perhaps #FOAF even?

Perhaps as part of NNCPNET?

Maybe (text-only) #USENET also via NNCP?

Edit: bc I just found #NNCP and #NNCPNET and think this could be a solution

==Webdev==

I can use #RubyOnRails as needed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@karen With #NNCP, we break the tyranny of online with delay-tolerant networking. https://www.complete.org/nncp/ The new #NNCPNET is an email network running atop it -- with bridges to the public Internet. https://salsa.debian.org/jgoerzen/docker-nncpnet-mailnode/-/wikis/home

This is a great article by #LWN @lwn about #NNCPNET, which uses #NNCP to form an email network that lets you run real mail servers (even with an Internet bridge) as easily as it used to be! https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/1031208/2335d9c8b8eb28c5/

My new blog post, Memoirs of the Early #Internet, unearths a few relics of the early Internet and #UUCP days from some obscure sites.

Researching cool things a person can do with #asynchronous #email over #NNCP (#NNCPNET) led me down that path. So while you're there, you can also check out the post about the NNCPNET Internet email gateway. https://changelog.complete.org/archives/10783-nncpnet-can-optionally-exchange-internet-email

My blog post on #NNCPNET, the #email network atop #NNCP : https://changelog.complete.org/archives/10768-announcing-the-nncpnet-email-network

@jeremiah_ @elb #NNCPNET, the new #NNCP-based email network, now has a bidirectional, opt-in, Internet #email bridge! https://salsa.debian.org/jgoerzen/docker-nncpnet-mailnode/-/wikis/bridge/intro

This gates Internet email to/from NNCP. The bridge is off by default. It is a full participant in #SPF, #DKIM, #DMARC, and #TLS in both directions.

Yes, now you can get Internet email straight to your #RaspberryPi ! (And even without this, your Pis can email each other!)

@elb I'm now ready to announce #NNCPNET, the #NNCP-based email network. https://salsa.debian.org/jgoerzen/docker-nncpnet-mailnode/-/wikis/home

It is open to all. It can route email across the Internet or USB stick. You can run a full, real mail server without a public IP, port forwarding, or even Internet access. It's a friend-of-a-friend network; mail delivery is automatic, but adding people is done by humans.

It uses all the tools that you're used to with Internet email, but is the opposite of it. Enjoy!

Let's look at the tech. For data link and networking, of course there are #LoRA, and #XBee. #meshtastic is atop #LoRA. #Briar can form a #Bluetooth mesh. #NNCP is a powerful delay-tolerant network. #cjdns and #Hyperboria form mesh networks, optionally using the existing Internet as a backhaul; their goal is nothing less than replacing the Internet. #Tor of course provides some of this too, at a different layer.
