Digital hygiene: Emails https://lobste.rs/s/tpb5a8 #email #practices
https://herman.bearblog.dev/digital-hygiene-emails/

Happily sending around signed and encrypted emails that use S/MIME certificates that I created myself on my own CA. And as my mail server (that I also run myself) has DKIM, DMARC, SPF set up correctly, that also works. Nice!

Archiving from notifications, warnings about expiring PGP keys, bug fixes, and more! Find out what's in Thunderbird 141.0 (and how you can get it) in our new Monthly Release Recap!

Mailfence is headache.

I wanted to sign up for Mailfence, but kept getting this message (see screenshot).

Ultimately, I reached out to their Support, which sent me an automated email informing about their Sales Department, which I also reached out too.

So I ended up going back and forth between Support and Sales. I repeated 3-4x what I wanted for an e-mail, until that last time, I mistyped it.

Guess which one I ended up with? In frustration, I just told them to delete the account.

#Email aliases: What is an alias & how to create aliases in #Gmail, #Outlook, #Tuta Mail & #iCloud Mail

So now that I have my own s/mime certificate generated and installed, here's the SHA256 fingerprint:

19dae1a388af5c91e3dc53d89e3efdaef3f24878b9d37f809463ee801f3eae25

Should you get an email from me, it will be signed and with this fingerprint you can verify that indeed it was me who sent it.

I know almost no one will ever actually do this verification, but it is reassuring to me that you can :)
