Email Service Recommendation

    Hello,

    I would like everyone’s input regarding who you would use for an email service. It is a lot of work keeping one’s own email service up and running. It takes a lot of time, it is fun, but I think I can use that time keeping it up and running for more productive use of my time.

    I appreciate your input. Thank you!

    @Madchatthew the ones that spring to mine here are the obvious contenders such as Gmail and Office365.

    Do you have a specific budget in mind?

    @Panda said in Cloudflare bot fight mode and Google search: Basic question again, is nginx necessary to use? No, but you’d need something at least to handle the inbound requests, so you could use Apache, NGINX, Caddy… (there are plenty of them, but I tend to prefer NGINX) @Panda said in Cloudflare bot fight mode and Google search: Do these two sites need to be attached to different ports, and the ports put in the DNS record? No. They will both use ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) by default. @Panda said in Cloudflare bot fight mode and Google search: Its not currently working, but how would the domain name know which of the two sites to resolve to without more info? Currently it only says the IP of the whole server. Yes, that’s correct. Domain routing is handled (for example) at the NGINX level, so whatever you have in DNS will be presented as the hostname, and NGINX will expect a match which once received, will then be forwarded onto the relevant destination. As an example, in your NGINX config, you could have (at a basic level used in reverse proxy mode - obviously, the IP addresses here are redacted and replaced with fakes). We assume you have created an A record in your DNS called “proxy” which resolves to 192.206.28.1, so fully qualified, will be proxy.sudonix.org in this case. The web browser requests this site, which is in turn received by NGINX and matches the below config server { server_name proxy.sudonix.org; listen 192.206.28.1; root /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ogproxy; index index.php index.htm index.html; access_log /var/log/virtualmin/proxy.sudonix.org_access_log; error_log /var/log/virtualmin/proxy.sudonix.org_error_log; location / { proxy_set_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_pass http://localhost:2000; proxy_redirect off; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Api-Key $http_x_api_key; } location /images { index index.php index.htm index.html; root /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ogproxy; } fastcgi_split_path_info "^(.+\.php)(/.+)$"; listen 192.206.28.1:443 ssl http2; ssl_certificate /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ssl.combined; ssl_certificate_key /home/sudonix.org/ssl.key; } The important part here is server_name proxy.sudonix.org; as this is used to “map” the request to the actual domain name, which you can see in the root section as root /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ogproxy; As the DNS record you specified matches this hostname, NGINX then knows what to do with the request when it receives it.

    @phenomlab said in Domain name factors: @jac Yes, but don’t forget that Matomo (and most browsers) alike will allow you to “opt out” or not be tracked, so you can’t really rely on these 100%. Absolutely, very true pal.

    @gotwf said in Email issue (virturalmin): @jac Typically you want your domain’s MX records to point to FQDN server name, e.g. foo.example.eg % drill stockportcounty.fans mx ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, rcode: NOERROR, id: 63911 ;; flags: qr rd ra ; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;; stockportcounty.fans. IN MX ;; ANSWER SECTION: stockportcounty.fans. 600 IN MX 10 stockportcounty.fans. Yours do not. Although a bit more drillin’ and reverse lookup indicates thusly; % drill stockportcounty.fans ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, rcode: NOERROR, id: 160 ;; flags: qr rd ra ; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;; stockportcounty.fans. IN A ;; ANSWER SECTION: stockportcounty.fans. 600 IN A 65.108.63.35 ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: ;; ADDITIONAL SECTION: ;; Query time: 127 msec ;; SERVER: 204.8.232.207 ;; WHEN: Sun Oct 10 19:37:02 2021 ;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 54 <kvg@loon:~>% drill -x 65.108.63.35 ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, rcode: NOERROR, id: 57802 ;; flags: qr rd ra ; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;; 35.63.108.65.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR ;; ANSWER SECTION: 35.63.108.65.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN PTR vps.stockportcounty.fans. I think you probably want your mx record to point to vps.stockportcountry.fans. It is important for forward and reverse lookups for MX records jive. Maybe you are looking like a spammer in that they do not? Edit: But at least you have a reverse record, many spammers do not, so that is a big red flag. Thanks for the advice, will look into it all later once back home.

    @cagatay same here. Was previously an IONOS user, but moved to Hetzner to realise both savings and performance increase and have never looked back.
