Hotmail —> Yahoo —> Gmail —> ?????

Gmail has been my main email since like 2008. Clearly it’s time for that to change. Anyone have any email recommendations for this next life stage of the internet, something not poisoned by fascism, data theft, and AI? 🧐

Anbieter von E-Mail-Aliassen im Test – Mail-Aliasse Teil 1

^{www.kuketz-blog.de}

@Tutanota@mastodon.social
Hallo.
Ich habe momentan den Premium-Tarif, den es offiziell nicht mehr gibt, da kann ich insgesamt nur eine einzige Signatur für alle Adressen verwenden und auch nur eine einzige eigene Domain hinzufügen.
Da ich inzwischen mehrere Domains habe, reicht mir dieser Tarif nicht mehr aus. Bevor ich jedoch zu einem anderen Anbieter wechsle, informiere ich mich HIER über einen größeren Tarif von euch, da es auf eurer Website leider viel zu wenige Informationen gibt.
Euer Forum in Reddit einzurichten ist auch eine sehr fragwürdige Entscheidung in Bezug auf Big Tech, Datenschutz und Privatsphäre.

Wenn ich Revolutionary buche, kann ich dann jeder E-Mail-Adresse, Aliase und Domain jeweils eine eigene Signatur hinzufügen?
Wenn ich auf Tarif Upgrade gehe, zeigt es mir lediglich eine jährliche Vertragslaufzeit an. Wenn ich ohne Anmeldung auf die Seite gehe, kann ich auch monatliche Vertragslaufzeit auswählen. Warum nicht als Bestandskunde?

La gente de #DeltaChat vuelven a impresionar 🤯 ahora con llamadas P2P (**en beta**)... Donde los servidores no necesitan hacer NADA especial, ni siquiera actualizarse. Todo sigue funcionando bajo estándares de #email. 😍

Hay algo mágico en una aplicación que consigue ser tan independiente incluso de su propia infraestructura. 🪄

Brillante trabajo, @delta, mis felicitaciones. 🚀

Sending mail from residential ip be like:

It's easily solvable using a "free" SMTP relay. But the privacy benefits of self-hosting are lost.

I'm using smtp2go to deliver to outlook and gmail. I have no idea if smtp2go is good or no. Do you have any recommendation?

@TheDailyBurble, happy to help.

Another cool feature of #XMPP are "gateways" that make it relatively easy to connect with other IMs.
e.g.
#Libervia to #ActivityPub and #email (CC @Goffi )

nlnet.nl/project/Libervia
libervia.org

#Slidge to all sorts of other IM like #Matrix, #Mattermost, #Steam, #Discord, #Whatsapp, FB … (CC @nicoco )

slidge.im

@pedrosanta @bagder @matrix

Not all of our progress is headline worthy! But steady, detail-oriented work, described in our latest development update, is a firm foundation for the next leaps forward.

Wenn man sich in Sachen #imap auf einen #Standard für den Ordner gesendeter Mails einigen könnte, wär' das doch eigentlich ganz schön, oder übersehe ich da etwas:

* Sent
* Sent Items
* Gesendet

Drei verschiedene Ordner über die Jahre, aber meiner Erinnerung nach alle mit @thunderbird@mastodon.online und k9Mail angelegt.

I've officially finished the email<=>XMPP gateway grant 🎉. Lot of stuff done. The gateway is working but there are still things to do, notably finishing the e2ee encryption which is complex.

I'll most probably blog about it (and the previous A/V one) next week.

Evaluating EU based email services, and everyone seems to flaws. @startmail has no calendar, @soverin has no ability to try it without fully committing your domain, @mailbox_org gives an error when I try and register, and has no support contact for non customers, @posteo.de doesn’t allow you to use your own domain, and of course @Tutanota is locked in e2ee service meaning I am forced to use their app (same with Proton).

I sort of thought this would be easier.

@thunderbird bug?
a team of people manages eg. team@domain #email .
they all use #thunderbird (on #linux) .
drafts stored by some team member, and then sent by another team member, doesn't show thread as replied..

sounds like a known bug? or something else to look into?

Can you guess Hanna’s feelings about AI in email? 🤯 What are your thoughts on this?

Great job! 👏

I think that:
🟩 Scheduled sends
🟩 Snoozing emails
🟩 Undo action popup when moving emails

are quite missing, but I can't wait to see them implemented soon! 😇

#Email #Productivity #Tutanota

Geschafft! 😄

Heute habe ich es endlich umgesetzt und den Mail-Verkehr von meiner eigenen Domain in meinem @Tutanota Konto integriert.
Endlich alles geballt in einem Postfach mit einer riesigen, selbst angelegten Ordnerstruktur. 😍

Vielen Dank an das Tuta-Team für die schöne und verständliche Anleitung dabei. Weiter so!

Comparing #XMPP against #email protocols is too limited. What sets #deltachat apart is *vertical integration* and being driven by UI/UX considerations. Cross-platform Apps and Bots use the Rust core library which connects with #chatmail relays and classic email servers based on a higher level API -- abstracting over SMTP, MIME, #OpenPGP etc. See chatmail.at

#webxdc apps in turn use an even higher level stable API abstracting over email/xmpp/... see webxdc.org/docs/

Are any other @thunderbird users seeing the issues that @winterschon wrote about in this post? I've been seeing the high resource usage, just not quite as high (but almost as high). This is one of the reasons that I'm moving back to Emacs for my email or looking for a client that is a bit "lighter" on the resource usage.
