This is a question about SMTP.

People at work keep emailing my personal address. I forward those emails to work so I can reply from the right address, and they get stuck in some kind of weird Microsoft quarantine nobody knows about. This almost prevented me from getting hired at this place, because they didn't know about the quarantine, and thought I was ignoring them.

This is probably happening elsewhere.

I asked around and they said it's probably happening because I don't have DMARC set up. I never set that up because it looks like I need to set up DKIM first. I never set up DKIM, because my vanity domain is just going through Gmail, and it looks like DKIM requires me paying far out the rear end for Google Workspace.

It's felt for a while like running email to my own domain was a hobby I would get squeezed out of due to anti-spam measures ramping up the maintenance costs beyond my ability to manage in my spare time. Maybe this is that point. Or maybe I'm missing something obvious! Any opinions?

e: good grief, I've been running this domain for 25 years now.

As you point out the anti-spam keeps ramping up. Some places apply a huge negative value to anything that looks like a Cloud IP or a consumer ISP IP. Even if you jump through every hoop you still could be quarantined because they think you're faking it. But that shouldn't happen if you're coming from Gmail. I'm surprised you aren't considered grandfathered into the old Workspaces? Or did you just never use it for that?

More I think about it the odder this sounds. If it's all through gmail it 'should just work' I've never heard of a problem with that with my half dozen or so vanity domains that I use. Can you explain a bit more about your workflow? How are you forwarding the email to work then not seeing a quarantine?

Is this what's happening:
A Mails Home
You forward to Work
Work mails A
Email get's quarnateed at A?

Okay, sure. Let's pretend my domain is "example.org".

  • I have gmail set up so that I can send email out as cruft@example.org
  • I've got a TXT record on example.org saying "v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all"
  • I have a TXT record on _DMARC.example.org saying "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:cruft@example.org; ruf=mailto:cruft@example.org; fo=s; aspf=s"
  • Mail goes out with "From: Cruft McCruftykins <cruft@example.org>"
  • But the SMTP envelope says "MAIL FROM: unprofessional@gmail.com"

According to the postmaster at work, the big problems are that the SMTP envelope doesn't match the From header, and that DMARC does not provide DKIM.

Also Google is on a couple blacklists. I'm sure they have an entire team who pretty much tries to stay off blacklists all day :(

e: oh, hey, to answer your actual question:


ee: I found some more information. It looks like changing the SPF failure policy to hard fail (-all), and the DMARC policy to p=reject might help. I'll try that and report back in 6 hours when my TXT record expires :sigh:

Got it. Now I need to see what mine does for that same case...

So for a source without DMARC set up at all:

quote:

So google is giving it a DKIM signing even though dmarc says 'unknown header'

Now what's concerning to me is the domain I *THOUGHT* I had DKIM set up for says:

quote:

Spf says where the email is coming from, and you've got that set. Dmarc is a way for reports to get back to you for analysis of deliverability of your email and yes, you can set quarantine/drop, but really... Dkim is stamping of the email contents as being from the correct source (not source ip though).

Where you are failing is your dkim - its being stamped using the source domain of Gmail.com and not your example.org domain. If you go to workspace (or anywhere else), they'll stamp the emails with your own example.org certificates. Unfortunately, they won't do Gmail.com.

Unfortunately the answer is that you'll need to use a real hosting account for your personal domain. And yes, I know your pain - I've got my own similarly old domain and had to suck it up.

Edit: if you really want to use Dmarc, there's plenty of sites that will do free hosting of the analysis reports like cloudflare, demarcian and such, (highly recommended to do btw), and set your policy to none unless you have everything else setup correctly.

I did this. Now I have another question.

ProtoMail really wants me to change my MX record to go directly to them. But then I lose the ability to have one address forward to both myself and ms cruft.

Other than an extra Received header, what problem am I going to experience if I continue to have my mx record point at Gandi, and keep forwarding everything in to ProtonMail? Seems to be working just fine so far, but I don't know enough about whatever magic gubbins they're using internally.

Just setup a mail rule (assuming you can do that) in protomail that forwards a copy of mail thats originally destined to your special dualuser account name.

(at least that's what I do at pobox/fastmail)

Edit: reason to do that is mail that travels through gandi will actually fail antispam checks by default. From the perspective of protomail, a message from a Gmail account is actually coming from gandi's servers - not Gmail's server. (Gmail is a bad example since their mail will pass dkim checks, but a domain that doesn't do dkim will now fail both dkim and spf checks).

Is this the de facto Home Assistant thread?

I have an Aranet4 I’d like to integrate into my smart home bullshit. I’m running home assistant in a docker container on a Debian box.

The Aranet uses Bluetooth to connect. I assume this means I need either:

Something near the Aranet connected to it by Bluetooth and feeding that data to my HA container, or

A really long Bluetooth antenna reaching from the server to the room where the Aranet is, then the HA instance should pick it up.

Has anyone succeeded in getting a Bluetooth device to work on home assistant like that or any other way? An aranet4 would be cool but I don’t imagine anyone else here is a mask-wearing pervert who cares about co2 levels like i do.

So I've been researching setting up a Jellyfish server both for the media but also just as a little home project to learn docker and Linux tech.

I've built my own PC, so I "get" the basics of the hardware required there. What I don't really understand is what, if anything, is the difference with a NAS (ie synology) versus building a small form factor PC?

At first I just understood a NAS to basically be a HD accessible over a LAN, but I understand now that they actually have CPU and other hardware that can support things like streaming media.

So, what exactly is the difference between the two? Is the hardware in a NAS specialized in some way for streaming media or is there really no difference. Is it only form factor (accessible HD bays etc)?

A NAS is just a machine that can provide network access to storage. The term “NAS” is just a word that describes the purpose or main responsibility of a machine.

A pi could be a NAS. Your desktop could be a NAS. A Steam Deck could be a NAS. A NAS is just a machine that can access a network, access some storage, and process requests to that storage from the network.

Sorry I probably should be more specific. I guess what I mean is what is the difference between a prebuilt NAS like synology and just any other small form factor PC?

Is it just ease (no assembly, plug N play) and form factor on the big HD bay style NAS?

I'm leaning towards just buying some cheap used small form PC so I'm trying to figure out of there is any other factor I should consider than form factor and it being prebuilt?

Yes. Modern Synology-type NAS products are literally just small PCs running Intel/AMD processors and a Linux-based OS called Diskstation Manager.

Compared to a regular cheap PC, their main advantage is the design and volume efficiency. Despite having a lightweight CPU and RAM, they have plenty of storage and often extra Ethernet ports, and a custom case with small size and easily accessibly disk bays. Very few SFF PC cases have 4+ 3.5" bays, and retail ITX motherboards are oddly expensive.

If you have room in your house and you're just stuffing the NAS in a closet or something, a normal-sized PC will do the same job for cheaper. Consider the cost of electricity where you live and do some napkin maths to figure out how much it is worth to you to save ~1W in power draw.

I grabbed a Synology last year when I was getting into this as a hobby. I don’t really use it for much - it backs up photos and is where my Paperless instance stores its files, and I back up the Proxmox VMs to it. What’s nice is since the OS is really built to do one job, it functions very well for it and tends to get support within its sphere. Backing up the stuff I wanted to Backblaze was easy and there was documentation to do it.

I’m sure if you wanted to roll your own and got TrueNAS or UnRaid it’d be the same experience.

I think the next time I do a big storage project, I’m gonna use an HBA card and roll my own on some more powerful hardware that I’ve turned into a Plex machine already.

I like the synology stuff. Its online services are surprisingly reliable.

I swallow the markup because I have a little thin client for messing with and the synology is so reliable that once I figured out how to use it, it’s never been the issue when I break something. Anything essential (that doesn’t need too much power) runs on the Synology

Nah, I want them to wait 5 minutes to ensure a consistent power supply and no brown outs. I can do that with a 300 second wait on the wol script on the Pi. So the straightforward "turn back on as soon as you have power" is not the solution.

NAS stands for Network Attached Storage. To be a NAS, a box needs to be attached to the network, and provide storage.

Some folks use the spare CPU cycles for other services.

Synology is more like a Consumer Off-The-Shelf homelab. But for historical reasons, it's still called a NAS. Like how I'm typing this on a pocket computer that, for historical reasons, everyone still calls a telephone.

Does anyone have any recommended super cheap video cards for a server who's cpu doesn't have an integrated GPU? The super old gpu I had dropped in there to let me access the bios/uefi if needed kicked the bucket and now I need a new one.

ARC A310.
