[Trisquel-users] Home email server

[sethcchrn6]

Hi everyone,

This whole Clinton email server has got me thinking. I currently use an email  
service that is part of the U.S. PRISM surveillance program. I'd like to  
change this but I don't trust my mail to other services. How difficult and  
expensive would it be to set up a home email server, register a domain on a  
free/open source DNS, and run it myself. Additionally (and why I post about  
it here) would Trisquel be useful in making this happen? I don't have a  
formal education in computer science but I'm moderately knowledgeable.

Thanks.
