-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 Thanks, SMTP-AUTH was the solution to this. It was a PITA to set up, but I eventually got it working with Dovecot SASL over TLS on port 587. Thanks for the hint! -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux)

If you do find a solution to the SMTP-hijacking problem, please let me know. Currently, I have mine set to refuse connections from outside my local subnet, but that's not great for when I'm using my Android mobile on the go, and want to reply to an email. Is there something we can do

Well, most users run precompiled software packaged by the distributor and they aren't capable of compiling the whole system by themselves. So actually, this quite a similiar problem. The question is: who deserves our trust more? Definitely the distributor; But one does not know.

I heard of the flaws in the rp after buying it; I can affirm that you're able to run debian on the raspberry without non-free parts, but I can only verify this for text-only. Probably, non-free stuff would be necessary for launching the x server.

DuckDuckGo is partly proprietary, and has released most of their source code via github. However, due to the parts that they haven't released, it is still impossible to know whether they do or not track you. Even if all the code was released, you have no way of knowing if that is really

If you use the email service of a company, you have to trust those guys. I switched recently from gmail to lavabit and I think this is a step up, but it's not the perfect solution. Of course it's better to use an email provider which claims to respect your privacy than just a service like

At the moment I use duckduckgo and startpage as a search engine. You mentioned concerns about last one. What are these concerns? While Starpage/Ixquick has not knowingly been tracking its users, there is still much suspicion to have over it, just as there is with duckduckgo. Here are my main
