Wow it is easier than i remember to get opensmtpd to
relay through a typical smtpd server (like your email
providers) !

yay :P

#openbsd #opensmtpd



I put my #mailserver setup with #opensmtpd on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/davd/docker-opensmtpd-mailserver in case anyone wants to set up something similar and wants to reference configs, etc. #selfhosted
docker-opensmtpd-mailserver

Single-container OpenSMTPD-based mail server

Codeberg.org
Is there any mailing list manager that integrates well with #OpenSMTPD?

Eilen oli kaukolämpöhäiriö. Salilla tein rintaa ja selkää, ja lopuksi poljin intervalleja. Paistoin porkkanapapukalan. Laastaroin talvitakin kainalon.

Nice side effect: My config is now down to just a single file with 36 lines, 19 of which are folder name configs probably very specific to my users.

Conclusion: For as long as there's no #openimapd, #dovecot is still the preferred (read simplest) #imap server for little self-hosted setups like mine.

#opensmtpd

Martedì 25 novembre 2025 alle 21:00 saremo ospiti degli amici del #GOLEM per raccontare della resurrezione del nostro server.

Ci sarà un excursus sulla posta elettronica, ma anche una divagazione pratica, dalle umili origini del server alla sua manutenzione. L'incontro è in primis motivazionale: se ce l'abbiamo fatta noi, chiunque può farsi la posta in casa.

Ci vediamo all'Officina Informatica, in via di Magolo 32, a #Empoli

I remember that a few months ago, there was a bit of a brouhaha around #dovecot removing a few features in the next release of the free open source version of the server (as is their right, I'm stating a fact and not complaining about it).

As my #selfhosted dovecot instance apparently had been up for long enough to have the TLS cert expire (oops), that had me thinking - is there a fairly simple #IMAP server available, kind of in the vein of #OpenBSD's #opensmtpd or httpd that supports imaps and reading emails from Maildir, but with otherwise fairly low count of bells and whistles?

OpenSMTPD 7.8.0p0 released

Happy Halloween!

I submitted a few Pull Requests as follows:

libressl 4.2.1 for MacPorts here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/29892

opensmtpd 7.8.0p0 for MacPorts here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/29893

libressl-devel 4.2.1 for MacPorts here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/29894

(the distinction between libressl and libressl-devel comes from a time before I became a MacPorts maintainer when the -stable and -development branches were tracked separately. While LibreSSL did also announce a 4.1.2 release? For now, it seems saner to just have libressl and libressl-devel within MacPorts be the same, if upstream tags their branches as -stable and -development again, we'll follow their lead)

Note: the OpenSMTPD 7.8.0p0 release also addresses a CVE as mentioned in the release notes.

GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed for all of them, it's up to someone else with commit access to merge them.

I also submitted announcements to undeadly.org, but I will let some of the other editors sanity check my submissions and publish them.

It's currently 22:18 more or less Pacific time, and I bought a ticket to a party that supposedly starts at 22:00 and goes until 05:00 tomorrow morning, so while maybe I am being "fashionably late"? I am happy to actually tend to some libre/free open source software maintenance before attempting to have much fun, because even though it's a Friday and "no pushes on Friday" I am not currently employed in those realms and for me? Coding is fun already! Not to mention, I rented a car and driving with all the folks in costumes crossing where ever seems to be posing additional hazards and I am in no rush.

I've got a lot going on tomorrow and Sunday too, before I fly to BCN for Mira Festival. So much going on, but mostly interesting things I think?
