Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

ssmtp is unmaintained.
msmtp is the recommended successor. The Arch wiki recommends also considering OpenSMTPD, which I haven't looked at yet.

Looks like to setup OpenSMTP as a relay, you are recommended to use
procmail
, which is itself unmaintained.https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/OpenSMTPD
Still msmtp lacks one feature that I had to workaround: It wasn't properly handling cron mail that was generated to a bare address like
root
ortest
. I solved that by writing an sendmail wrapper which rewrites the input just before it's handled to msmtp.https://github.com/marlam/msmtp/issues/98

Ah, thanks
I just started using OpenSMTPD as a backup relay and it seems to work for that. Very lightweight and easy to set up.
