Right now, it's just a dirty hippie in his office/bedroom with a
mailing list and some computing resources, but I'm hoping someone who
knows what they're doing will step in.

Yes, that's a great guide, and it was my intro to OpenSMTPD as well.

I second that.

Not quite the topic of the ML, but it's awesome that you founded the
BLVUUG!

I have also been lurking for two or three years, I will introduce myself
too. I originally started using OpenSMTPD with the great guide on
poolp.org from 2019, which was also pretty much the start of my server
journey, starting with Debian, continuing to OpenBSD and finally
settling on Alpine Linux. What has stayed the same is that I am using
OpenSMTPD with Dovecot and Rspamd, and it has been a wonderfully stable
and reliable setup with a tiny footprint.
Thanks to Gilles for his fantastic guide and thanks to everybody else
here for this great piece of software! :)

Best,
Edin

PS - I also started a little blog to hopefully create similarly good
guides for others who are starting out:

I suppose I should give my own introduction.  I've been lurking here
for about two years now.  In 2020, I replaced my postfix+spamassassin
setup with opensmtpd+rspamd.  I got tired of feeling dread every time I
went to make changes to postfix config, which while not as inscrutable
as sendmail, is still pretty complicated.  I've been a lot happier with
the new setup.

Hello Souji,

always happy to read introductions, and since nobody else replied, I
will! Welcome to the list, and a good day/evening/night to you too! :)

Best,

Hello everybody

Hey everybody,

I just joined this mailing list, and want to use this opportunity to 
introduce myself, as noted on the website :).


I started to use OpenSMTPD (and with that OpenBSD) as mail server just 
recently, and hope for some good discussions on this mailing list.


Have a great day, evening or night, whatever time it is at your side of 
the world now ;).
