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.

A good list of tricks to ease the pain with email hosting. I use some of it to deal with the delivery pain.

The sad state of self-hosting emails.

This mistakes are indeed widespread too much for my taste.

Despite all its flaws and the regular claims of its death, email keeps being a central part of our collective infrastructure indeed. Clearly it's still here to stay.

Always wanted to try this particular way of dealing with patches. But none of the projects I contributed to so far work in that mode.
