Finished migrating my selfhosted email server to a new hosting provider.

Yes, I did on a Friday, which should be read-only.

But it's OK, because this is a personal system, not a corporate one.

Plus, I'm an anarchist, I refuse to be opressed by silly rules ;-)

A quotation from Neil Gaiman

“To be eccentric,” says Miss Webster, dead for fifteen years, in the back of my head, her voice dry, her elocution perfect, “you must first know your circle.” Know the rules before you break them. Learn how to draw, then break the rules of drawing. Learn to craft a story and then show people things they’ve seen before in ways they’ve never seen.

Neil Gaiman (b. 1960) British author, screenwriter, fabulist
Foreword (1993) to Harlan Ellison, The Beast That Shouted Love at the Heart of the World (1969)

We believe the best builds start with "what if" and end with "nobody's done that before." Innovation happens when builders stop following blueprints and start creating their own.
Save this for your next build inspiration. Sometimes breaking convention creates something legendary.

What's the most unusual mod you've seen that actually worked perfectly? Innovation often looks crazy at first glance.

A quotation from Banksy

The greatest crimes in the world are not committed by people breaking the rules but by people following the rules. It’s people who follow orders that drop bombs and massacre villages. As a precaution to never committing major acts of evil it is our solemn duty never to do what we’re told, this is the only way we can be sure.

Banksy (b. 1974) England-based pseudonymous street artist, political activist, film director
Wall and Piece, “Cops” (2005)
