A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Managing mail servers is the worst. If you want your own email just go register email on something like Zoho. It's cheap and the couple $$ you spend on it is money well spent to prevent the time and aggravation you'll have running your own server.
Yeah, as someone who hosts a private email server, don't do it. I don't use my mail server for anything remotely important, because I don't have enough monitoring in place to be sure it's working 100% of the time. Silently dropping emails is a huge deal, especially if your monitoring is email-based... It's 100% worth it paying for email hosting if you want to set up custom domains and mailboxes.
