rcbrk@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Email with own domain service but local?English5·6 months ago- For incoming mail, on your server run a mail retrieval agent like fetchmail to fetch mail from the externally hosted mailbox into a maildir on your server.
- To serve that maildir to your clients, on your server run a mail delivery agent like the IMAP server Dovecot.
- To accept outgoing mail from your clients, on your server run something like Postfix with a
relayhost
configured with the details of your externally hosted SMTP server.
There’s nothing unusual or tricky about any of this arrangement.

Sure, but gov ID is permitted as an option if another non-ID option is also available.
Simply choose between submitting your government ID or, say, switch on your front facing camera so we can perform some digital phrenology to determine your eligibility.
rcbrk@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Australia bans social media for under 16sEnglish391·7 months agoThe ban and age verification requirements apply to pretty much all services which allow communication of information between people, unless an exemption is granted by the minister.
There is no legislated exemption for instant messaging, SMS, email, email lists, chat rooms, forums, blogs, voice calls, etc.
It’s a wildly broadly applicable piece of legislation that seems ripe to be abused in the future, just like we’ve seen with anti-terror and anti-hate-symbol legislation.
From 63C (1) of the legislation:
For the purposes of this Act, age-restricted social media platform means:
- a) an electronic service that satisfies the following conditions:
- i) the sole purpose, or a significant purpose, of the service is to enable online social interaction between 2 or more end-users;
- ii) the service allows end-users to link to, or interact with, some or all of the other end-users;
- iii) the service allows end-users to post material on the service;
- iv) such other conditions (if any) as are set out in the legislative rules; or
- b) an electronic service specified in the legislative rules; but does not include a service mentioned in subsection (6).
Here’s all the detail of what the bill is and the concerns raised in parliament.
- a) an electronic service that satisfies the following conditions:
