Is it a good idea to setup a mail server for smol mailboxes and to open registration for free with invitation links for example?
The goal would be to reduce volume of emails, as #smolweb reduces the size of websites.
Something smol like:
- one common domain name (something in .casa TLD)
- in a French datacenter
- 128 Mb of storage
- 10 Mb max per email (sent or received)
- 10 recipient addresses per email (can't be used for mailing)
- limited sent per hour (no spam)
- IMAP / POP3 / SMTP (over TLS)
- Webmail (for desktop and mobile)
- autodeleted if full for several months (to free space for newcomers)
Are you interested by such a #mailbox ?
Please share this toot to have a good idea of the interest.

@zordsdavini smolweb (http) is not smolnet (gemini). So standard email protocol matches better. Just try to use lighter email such as plain text
@adele oh, my mistake. Then the idea is good to try. I have my own mailbox but with some receipts and pdf agreements during years it has 90MB. I try to have it clean. Your idea of small mailbox could work in sync to computer and clearing the server. There are to many emails with "small" attachments
@zordsdavini POP3 is here to do the job, get a copy of the mail from server and then delete it
