The most daunting thing for me about joining Mastodon/Fediverse was picking an instance.
Having joined one, a RL metaphor emerges for me: "it's like picking an apartment building."
You need to evaluate the management. Do they respect tenant rights? Is the desk clerk skeevy?
Do you want to live in a big impersonal complex? Or a little boarding house, where people share a lot and have house parties? You can even be a "home owner" and run your own instance (pay the bills, fix the plumbing).
Oh and some tracking for what is left in Imap can be found at https://github.com/MTRNord/erooster/projects/1 :)
An SMTP overview is going to follow.

All in all this will take quite some time to implement especially as I do this between university and work in my free time.
However I would love if people could take a look, ask questions, maybe give it a star or even engage with me further on this.
You can find the repository over at https://github.com/MTRNord/erooster and Chat with me at https://matrix.to/#/#erooster:nordgedanken.dev on matrix.
Any boosts would be highly appreciated! 💙

I recently started to work on a single binary mail server (#SMTP and #imap) it intentionaly doesn't do all the organisations stuff like ldap as it focuses on personal setups. I am currently working on implementing Imap4rev2 (rfc9051) and got most of the folder options up and running. The next goal is to display the received messages aka implementing the fetch command and some of the commands that are not yet covered.
After that I am aiming to also implement the SMTP part.

Warum ich noch nicht mit Mastodon warm werde:
1. Clients. Man ist zwar beim iOS-Client von Twitter wilkürlichen Änderungen ausgesetzt, aber die UX ist einfach ungeschlagen gut. Das Interface ist flüssig und so snappy. Unglaublich gut leider.
Über Toot möchte ich nicht reden. Das ist absoluter mentaler Overload. Als hätte man eine Agentur, die vor 3 Tagen Microinteractionen gelernt hat, mit einer Tüte Koks übers Wochenende eingesperrt. Nein, niemals. 1/x

Comparison of Matrix events before and after “Extensible Events”
Wow, after 25 years of Unix experience, I learned that you can filter output in #less.
Press ampersand (&) and enter a regex to show only lines matching the regex.
Press ampersand (&) and then exclamation mark (!) to apply an inverse filter.
Guess what? It's still @fosdem@twitter.com! And today we run a conference in the conference 🤯
