I hope I’ll be able to finalise tests on https://message.casa/ this evening/night : main services are ok (postfix, dovecot, rspamd, snappy&nocc webmails, prosody) but anonymous registration method with invite codes needs to be overtested to avoid malicious accounts

I don't manage to get time to end writing the account management process of https://message.casa

It is not complicated, just registration with an invite code, and password change, but they must be secured processes.

I'd like to keep accounts anonymous, just a login and a password, without requiring an alternative email address. But this implies that it is not possible to get a link to reset the password.
Isn't it too dangerous to not have this possibility? If you lose your password, you definitively lose your account!

It's not a good idea to send the reset link to the message.casa address. If you want to reset your password, it could be because someone has stollen your device or your session.

Is there a good design pattern to reset a password without a "backup" alternative email address?

I don't want to react to the AWS breakdown (even if this toot looks like that).
Telling that you should use a different service, your own server, or whatever to avoid a breakdown is stupid. All solutions are subject to breakdown and AWS isn't the worst.

Yesterday's problem just shows the hegemony of AWS (and other Big Tech actors), even for non-American structures. It should just make us aware that a unilateral decision by the United States could harm any country without military intervention.

It's time to dig up a post from the beginning of the year:

https://adele.pages.casa/md/blog/what-if-us-cut-off-big-tech-from-europe.md

For the incoming message.casa mailbox hosting (see https://social.pollux.casa/@adele/statuses/01K7J5JX8JHSPNE8RMPQT9J8RT ), I plan to use a different character for the "plus addressing".

pseudo+amazon@message.casa is too easy to break by email address scrappers. They remove the + and the following before selling your address.

I would like to use a different character, but this one could not be present in the main pseudo to avoid naming conflict.

first.lastname-amazon@message.casa if I set the dash as separator (but no dash in the pseudo).

first-lastname.amazon@message.casa if I set the dot as separator (but no dot in the pseudo)

I don't know which is the best option 🤔

Oh Noooo! 😱​
Who wants such an app??

"PicSee is the simplest way in the world, to get all your unseen pics from your friends devices!

It's the World’s First #AI enabled Mutual Photo Sharing app.

Your friends get their photos from you only when they give you yours. Using AI facial recognition, PicSee finds unseen photos of you on friends’ devices and delivers them after a simple one-time, mutual approval."

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.
