If you didn't know about quoted printable encoding. This is a way to understand it.

A good reminder that Git doesn't force you to use a web application to collaborate on code.

Interesting points. Forums are clearly not good replacements for mailing lists. They might be a good complementary to mailing lists but both have very different affordances.

Email encryption is indeed still an open issue. There's no fix in sight for it. It's mostly a lack of political will though, so none of the big players are going to change anything.

This looms like a handy help to check your email client is doing the right thing and is not leaking information.

Yes, same here I way prefer email (even though messaging can have its uses of course).

A tiny piece of history which was instrumental in the way the web and email developed back then.

This is a funny but interesting productivity tip.

This is a good way to deal with email. My approach is fairly similar and I confirm it works nicely for me.

Some of this is not new, but it looks like a dying practice. It doesn't need to be. This medium is more efficient than chat for some cases.

Worth trying indeed. I'd love to see at least some of that widely adopted.

You don't need to self-host the mail itself, but you definitely should control the domain.

Definitely a nice trick for testing if an email is really sent by a system under test.

Fascinating bug... the fine details of mundane protocols like SMTP can sometimes be surprising.

Good exploration of the many ways contact forms fail us regularly. Also shows a few cases where you might still want to us them... in most cases you shouldn't.

Looks like a nice tool to backup and restore emails. Probably to check out next time you migrate your emails to another server.

Looks like Microsoft is really catching up fast for its surveillance apparatus to be on par with Google and Meta.

New technique for SMTP smuggling... vulnerable servers then allow to spoof while still passing DMARC checks properly. Check your providers and server configuration.

Good list of techniques. Some of them aren't fully evaluated yet. Definitely worth considering.

This is very very centralized. No good surprise here unfortunately... and still email is really tough to fully self-host.
