  • In that case I can really highly recommend it. Nixos on the server is fantastic anyways, and the only hurdle to recommending simple-nixos-mailserver is that most people are not familiar with nix... 😄

  • It's a bit unconventional maybe, but I vote simple-nixos-mailserver - IF you are curious / willing to learn nix. It's essentially just sanely configured dovecot, postfix, rspamd.

    My config for those three combined is about 15 lines, and I have never had an issue with them. Slap on another 5-10 lines for Roundcube as a webmail client.

    Since it's Nix, everything is declarative, so should SOMETHING happen to the server, you can be up and running again super quickly, with the exact same setup.

  • I'm using Hetzner in Germany. Need to message them to say you want the relevant ports opened (spam protection measures), happens within an hour usually.

    I quite like their service, but of course use full disk encryption etc

  • Fail2ban allows you set different actions for different infringements, as well as multiple ones. So in addition to being put in a "local" jail, the offending IP also gets added to the cloudflare rules (? Is that what its called?) via their API. It's a premade action called "cloudflare-token-multi"

  • A high-quality laptop without any branding.

    I'm currently using a 9-year-old, woefully underpowered laptop made by Xiaomi. Full aluminium unibody, and NO logo. Not printed on, not etched in, not glistening only in the right light. NO LOGO.

    I'm not a billboard. I'm not responsible for your brand recognition. Ironically though, far more people have come up to me and asked "hey, what laptop is that" than ever would have cared if there was a logo on it.

    It also just looks and feels fantastic, all-aluminium-no-logo just looks so sleek.

    So yeah. I will not be upgrading until I find another laptop of the same build quality, with no logo. Tuxedo has that option for most of their laptops, but for some reason not for their only current full-aluminium body -.-

    Oh, and don't come at me with stickers.
