I'm not an expert on this (it's a career), but I know it's not that simple.

If I get an unforwarded email, I definitely want both DKIM and SPF to pass. I want only email from an authorized server, and I want an email that is not modified and is properly signed. No exceptions. Both must pass.

If I get email from a mailing list that is sending email to me on behalf of a different domain, I want SPF to pass in that I want to know that the mailing list provider's server is authorized to send email on behalf of the original domain. But, in this case, the original DKIM will fail because the mailing list provider will have changed the email. But, I expect the new DKIM to be correct, or I won't accept it. So, here, a failure on the original DKIM can be acceptable.

If someone forwards an email to me, the original DKIM will fail. I will accept it. But, I want the SPF of the forwarding server to pass, and the new DKIM for the changed email to pass.

There's also email redirection and forwards that happen at the server vs. the client and there can be separate rules for this.

The records can get complicated if you truly want to control different scenarios.

But, you don't always want to accept an email if only 1 check passes.

At least, this is my understading of it all.

@[email protected] I set up my own email server on DigitalOcean and instantly got blacklisted by Spamhaus because it was a new domain, and then by another company because the IP address belonged to DigitalOcean.

Most mail servers also flagged it as spam because the domain was less than 60 days old and because it was a .online TLD. For a long time, some of my emails were immediately bounced back or went to spam folders because of all these reasons.

I also believe that every home IP address is automatically blacklisted, which makes it worse for your roommate.

You can eventually overcome it by letting the domain reputation slowly develop and then doing a direct appeal to the blacklist companies. But, it takes a long time.

It's amazing any spam gets delivered.

Mine only has an 80% option? It's working as claimed on my Pixel 9 Pro.

@snafu @jonas
I found it in Settings->Battery->Charging Optimization. One of the radio buttons is "Limit to 80%"

@snafu
Did you get the latest security update (December 2024)? I don't know what QPR1 is.

I have a Pixel 9 Pro. I was updated 2 days ago, which is when it appeared.

I've been reading articles about it, but none mention the particular devices. I hope you see it soon.

The terms are equivalent to "Mastodon" in that they are just the names of the applications that provide the ability to create and manage communities.

I'm here if you have questions.

@hitstun @rimu @Andromxda
Wow. You're right. The display is beautiful! I never saw any communities that showed this feature so well!

I'm glad you joined the server! Welcome.

And a GB is but a drop. Don't worry about resource usage.

A perfect example of why down votes are useful in PieFed and why reputation and attitude scores are a nice PieFed feature.

Wish Mastodon had these.

@[email protected] I don't block threads on my instance. I limit them because I think as they build out more integration, spammers will begin posting from there, given that it will take longer to remove them on Threads than on a Mastodon server. I have no plans to ever block Threads.

But, I have unlimited many Threads accounts individually, as exceptions, that I know are real and safe, and will do so on request.

Interesting because I too announced that my kbin instance, feddit.online, is shutting down on November 4th for a different set of goat rodeo reasons.

No, it's just not maintainable at this time.

I'm now expecting Elon Jr. (Spaz) to do the same on Reddit because Elon is his idol and mentor.

I wish there was an option on #DuckDuckGo to exclude search results that point to Twitter since I can no longer read them. It's now just clutter in the search results.
