Michael W. Lucas: Run Your Own Mail Server (Hardcover, english language, Titled Windmill Press) 5 stars

best email how to i've read

5 stars

Back in 2006 I wanted to self host my mail. After two weeks of feeling with a bunch of howtos from the linux documentation project I gave up. That was also probably due to me getting free email hosting from google. When that offer ended, I thought about self hosting again , this time documentation was way better. This book is huge howtos and covers everything email related. The protocols, the history. It also provides exemples, sequencing : what to do first and then. I've been using email and managing some email related domains for 25ish years. I've learned a lot and would recommend that every sysadmin reads this book.

Prophetic for its time

3 stars

Adapting & building community during social collapse. Prophetic for its time, remains unsettling. God as Change could be a genuinely useful belief system. Only half a book, with ending sudden & too convenient (there is a sequel).
