No, for a lot of reasons. (ethical and legals ones) If you want something to translate the page, you can always use a browser extension. (DeepL, Google Translate, etc...) PS : Your DMARC policy wants a valid DKIM, however i don't see DKIM signatures in your emails. - Jarod Le 11/03/2024 à 19:32, Peter Thurner | Blunix GmbH a écrit : Can you add a google translation button?

Thats excatly what my post (https://www.blunix.com/blog/secure-smtp-email-relay-on-debian-and-ubuntu-with-opensmtpd-instead-of-postfix.html) was written for - it focuses on servers running webapps that send out booking confirmations, password resets, and so on. works for your local raspberry pi too. > 2.

*like* Both look helpful. Maybe update the code blocks a bit - in my experience thats what people are most looking out for - copy pastable content. I use https://prismjs.com/ for my blog and am pretty happy with it.

I use OpenSMTPDD for peer to peer email, because it is small and relatively simple. I've been able to keep up with old friends thanks to p2p email, which doesn't depend on DNS, clearnet IPs, etc. I need to update this article (opensmtpd config has changed since it was posted), but the p2p setup is another well fitted use of opensmtpd. https://fedoramagazine.org/decentralize-common-fedora-apps-cjdns/

Ubuntu and Debian appear to be on version 6.8. The Arch package search indicates they seem to be on the latest versions, including 7.5 RC1 being available. Most critically needed for OpenSMTPD is a PPA with most current version. I maintained a very simple PPA long ago and I am well aware it is no small task.
