This is just after a reboot.

It is running #Nextcloud, and so effectively does the cloud storage, calendar & contacts. I've been running this since before Nextcloud (I used to use OwnCloud).

This and SSH is all that is accessible outside of home. Both have MFA and China is currently blocked (I mean to expand this list).

However it also handles DHCP & DNS for the home LAN using #dnsmasq and I use it as an email archive (#dovecot). There is a functional #fetchmail install, but this is currently switched off.

It also has my #Subversion archive. That stays until I get around to having a proper look at #git.

With #USA going downhill I do have plans to get it do do more - but I'm playing with using #docker containers so if anything gets hacked, that will minimise the damage. I currently have too much running on the raw iron.

I'm using #borg for backups onto an external HDD that then occasionally is copied elsewhere (physical media off-site).

#selfHosting

@daveburb @nobodyinperson I do the same thing. I use #dovecot to serve the mail folders. I use #fetchmail to pull all my external mail accounts to my #dovecot server they are all aggrigated into my one mailbox.

With this setup, if my mailserver goes down, people can still send me mail without errror. I'll just get it a bit later when the server comes back up. Setup a local SMTP forwarder to forward your outgoinv mail to a real SMTP.

I've been doing this since 2000.

@nobodyinperson
I've been doing that for over 20 years with #dovecot. For a while I even used #fetchmail to pull down emails to it.

🔧 Optimiere deine E-Mail-Kommunikation mit #UCS! 📧

E-Mails sind das Herzstück für moderne Kommunikation. Die UCS-Mailserver-App ermöglicht den Aufbau eines eigenen Postamts mit Postfix und Dovecot für reibungslosen Versand. ClamAV und SpamAssassin schützen vor Viren und Spam. Die #Fetchmail-App holt E-Mails aus externen Konten.

Autorin @hej zeigt im Blog mehr über die Installation, Konfiguration und Funktionen der #Mailserver- und Fetchmail-App.

"Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
If this question rings a bell, you're probably thinking of this classic sketch:

Well, thanks to a particularly fun fetchmail bug in Mailu, I decided to automate the answer! 🚀

Because sometimes, the best fix is just... off, then on again. 🐳✨

Как я bash писал на Chat GPT, или IMAP to API при помощи Fetchmail

Как получить правильный ответ от Chat GPT — так же как и в реальной жизни — задать правильный вопрос. Какой вопрос правильный? Да кто ж его знает, но найти его с чатом стало проще, чем просто копаться на stackoverflow. Про это и статья... Ну и помимо этого под катом работающий скрипт, который слушает почту по IMAP и пересылает письма с вложениями и русским языком на API endpoint.

Сбор и сортировка вложений писем с помощью Fetchmail + Procmail + uudeview

На работе поступила задача от коллеги о необходимости решения вопроса с сохранением вложений в письма (поступают на определенный почтовый адрес) и сохранением их на файловом сервере. В теме письма указана аббревиатура, которую необходимо указать в имени директории, куда будет сохраняться вложения. В интернете я нашел несколько статей, с использованием данных инструментов, но по большей части они мне не давали сделать то, что было задумано и пришлось дописать небольшой скрипт, который позволил нам сохранять файлы на сетевой шаре.

@ryan #fetchmail can do that. And if you add this line to your fetchmailrc stanza, it can do it over Tor: “plugin "socat STDIO SOCKS4A:127.0.0.1:%h:%p,socksport=9050"”

#Debian #Bullseye is set to release in the next day or two. You will be impacted if you run any of these apps/pkgs: #VBox, #gksudo, #openssl, #fetchmail, #ocrodjvu, #evince, #okular, #xpdf, #neomutt, #electronmail, #wire, #bitlbeeMastodon, #Kitty. More details: https://raddle.me/f/freesoftware/132542/what-you-will-lose-when-upgrading-to-debian-bullseye

As far as I can tell, #Fetchmail v6.4.0 is just a downgrade. People might want to pin an older version.

#Fetchmail has just removed opportunistic SSL/TLS, which affects the #Debian #Bullseye release. And they didn't remove the statement that opportunistic connections are possible from the man page. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fetchmail/+bug/1934155

@plathoar It turns out using #FDM to delete old email from the server is a mess: https://github.com/nicm/fdm/issues/73 & it's impossible with #fetchmail. So #Getmail it is.

Why did #Tor Project remove #Fetchmail & #Getmail from their website? https://web.archive.org/web/20170925012544/https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorifyHOWTO/EMail "Old" info isn't necessarily useless. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorifyHOWTO/EMail?sfp_email=&sfph_mail=&action=diff&version=49&old_version=48&sfp_email=&sfph_mail=

I need to delete #email older than ~45 days or so from the server, while keeping a local copy of all msgs (old & new). To my surprise, #Fetchmail can't handle this, while #Getmail has a "delete_after" option. Must I use Getmail?

Gibt es eine Art #fetchmail für #Mastodon, mit dem man öffentliche Toots aus anderen Instanzen in die eigene Instanz einspeisen kann um die Timeline etwas zu bevölkern?

Note to self: the reason you switched from #fetchmail to #getmail is because the latter doesn't require a local smtp listener.
