We had a great talk with Dutch hosting company https://cloudcat.nl/ and are happy to see Lightmeter supporting them in enabling high-deliverability hosted email for non-profit and other organisations in the Netherlands 🐱❤️

Fresh interview by the EC about the challenges facing email, and how Lightmeter is helping: "When hosting email is as easy as hosting WordPress, then everyone can keep their private communications in a trustworthy place" https://www.ngi.eu/whos-ngi-sam-tuke-with-lightmeter/ #decentralized #dataSovereignty

Did you know that email greylisting can be applied at five different stages of delivery & processing? Today's new knowledgebase article explains which produces the fewest false positives #Greylisting #SMTP #AntiSpam https://lightmeter.io/knowledgebase/email-greylisting-what-why-and-how/

Behind every email is a trail of Delivery Status Notification (DSN) codes, recording success or failure. But the terms are tormenting: is DSN just a code, a message, an "Enhanced code" (ESC), or all of the above? Our new dictionary reveals all https://lightmeter.io/knowledgebase/dsn-dictionary-clarifying-codes-messages-and-bounces/ #smtp

@arthurlutz@social.logilab.org Should now be fixed :)

@arthurlutz@social.logilab.org Oops, thanks! Well spotted - we'll get those fixed tomorrow 👍

Turns out 3m indie servers and 1m admins are good at keeping messages flowing. Ask your nearest email admin (don't ask Facebook) #resilience #facebookdown

@teslanaut Let us know if it's still yours in 24hrs. If it is: play it safe with the trademarks 😉

Behold. The new owner of Facebook.com

If WhatsApp infrastructure were owned by users, not Facebook, then #FacebookDown could only affect one household at a time. Communicating with family and work is too important to be the job of one company. Decentralize now! #EmailFTW

When's the last time your mailboxes were down 5 hours? Time to show some love for ~1 million email admins who keep our inboxes flowing 24/7/365 😇 #facebookdown #smtp #linux

Lightmeter 1.9 released, introducing a new peer network for large-scale collaboration. How much better would email be if the servers that hosted them worked together instead of against each other? Let's find out 🤝 https://lightmeter.io/lightmeter-1-9-seeding-the-network/

Coming soon to Lightmeter: crowdsourced #mailserver automation - announcing the introduction of a new automated peer network, for improving mailserver security and performance. #Postfix #SMTP https://lightmeter.io/coming-soon-crowdsourced-mailops-automation/

@kartoffelcheetah Exactly! Maybe include the demand for monies within the spam to save time having to shake them down separately. Heck; make it self service: "please estimate how many messages from us you have blocked, and use self checkout to pay the appropriate fines" 😈🤑

Spam filtering is apparently now illegal in Texas.
