I’m poking around in #infomaniak email service and it is fantastic! I could have a separate user for my #selfhosted services who don’t have access to my personal emails. Nice web interface and very nice mobile app. I think I want to migrate from #Fastmail to have my emails in Europe. Also this is a good opportunity to also move my main email address into my personal domain, so I don’t bound to a specific email provider.

Redesign of Apple Mail: Automatic categories cause confusion
From iOS 18.4 and macOS 15.4, Apple's Mail app automatically sorts all messages into categories. This means that emails can get out of sight.

So, now that I've got the funds to spare, I'm on the hunt for a new email, contacts, calander and cloud storage provider that's Europe-based... Proton is out for various reasons. Suggestions? #AskFedi #EuropeanUnion #Email #Contacts #Calendar #CloudStorage #Privacy #DataSovereignty

[…] Google Claims To Have Invented An Entirely New Type Of Encryption For Gmail Users […]«
This is not an April joke and yes Google offers OpenPGP for Gmail Accounts. This is not difficult to set up but too many people are too lazy in my opinion.
The bird is out of the bag! We're introducing Thunderbird Pro (you already know Appointment!), a set of productivity AND privacy boosting services. And that includes...*drum roll*...an email service we're calling Thundermail. Find all the info in this excellent article:
Redesign von Apple Mail: Automatische Kategorien stiften Verwirrung
Ab iOS 18.4 und macOS 15.4 sortiert Apples Mail-App alle Nachrichten eigenständig in Kategorien. E-Mails können so aus dem Blick geraten.
Finally! Mozilla Thunderbird challenges Gmail with its own email service. And that's just the beginning...

While definitely a big step in the right direction, I have to wonder if this means Google will no longer be able to scan your emails and inbox? #google #e2ee #encryption #cybersecurity #email
Google is updating Gmail to allow enterprise users to send encrypted messages to any inbox in just a few clicks using a new encryption model that doesn’t require senders or recipients to use custom software or exchange encryption certs.

Keine Lust deine E-Mails von Big Tech verwalten zu lassen? Dann schau dir #b1gMail an, gibt es seit 2002 und ermöglicht es dein eigener E-Mail-Anbieter zu sein. Es lässt sich auf jedem Webspace installieren und kann z.B. via POP3-Catchall Postfach die E-Mails abholen lassen. Es kann auch mit einem bestehenden MTA wie Postfix eingesetzt werden. Mit #b1gMailServer wird POP3, IMAP und SMTP bereitgestellt.
Discovered that Spamdyke's "greylisting" is why the 2FA code emails to my hosting provider's email accounts often arrive so late they expire.
It bounces the first arrival of an email with the assumption that a non-spammy email server will retry.
Turns out this really confuses whatever queues are sending out these 2FA code emails. Sometimes it takes an hour for them to arrive (expired). Disabled it & now I can get into several services I've been locked out of.
Ugg.
Now that in iOS 18.4 you can finally set the Mail app to return to the inbox after archiving/deleting messages, I may finally give it a try after all these years.
A polish friend just told me about freeshell.de. I think I should have known about it sooner so I'm slow to this party but it feels very interesting.
