heh. my 2011 rantlet "The Problem Isn't Email, It's Microsoft Exchange" https://nxdomain.no/~peter/the_problem_isnt_email_its_microsoft_exchange.html made this week's "Valuable news" by @vermaden https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2025/03/17/valuable-news-2025-03-17/ #smtp #email #exchange #spam #security #timesinks
I thought I had seen it all when it comes to mail delivery and security issues.
But this morning I was introduced to the fact that there are Exchange admins who will implement a rule that all incoming mail from outside their own organization should be flagged as potentially dangerous and presented to the user with the option to block sender and no option to mark the message or the sender as valid.
Yes, that for every single message.

I love my email client because I've set all my emails to Plain text view and haven't looked back since. I also never have to see badly formatted newsletters again! Now, I get emails that say this, which is honestly more than fine by me! I'd rather get this then some badly formatted email.
However, your email software can't display HTML emails. You can view the newsletter by clicking here:

Have you started using the new features in your Tuta Calendar

Vraagje:
Er is veel te doen om de nieuwe 'regels' van Firefox.
Nu gebruik ik Thunderbird, wat ook van Mozzila is, voor mijn mail accounts.
Weet iemand of Thunderbird ook de nieuwe regels , zoals die van Firefox, heeft?
Ik heb het nergens kunnen vinden.
Zo ja: wat is een goed vergelijkbaar alternatief voor een desktop pc?
Voor m'n android tablet heb ik K-9 mail, maar die is er niet voor een 'gewone' pc.
Only write your emails in ALL CAPS or only lowercase with no punctuation?

Okay tech community.
I am looking for a new and free #Email server. My first email was yahoo - 30 years ago. I can’t remember what I used on ThunderBird.
I have been using gmail since it started, and I started trying to publish writing.
So, due to a multitude of illnesses, I am no longer tech savvy.
I need simple, and useable on the #Mac.
I have considered switching to Icloud, but don’t want that.
About six years ago, my writing #Gmail turned into a spam hub, so I had to switch to my junk email to use as my primary business email. I have never been able to get my writing gmail back to no, or even low, spam.
