Clarification

You do not have to worry about your mastodon.social (m.s) account being defederated.

There is a well meaning, but misleading post currently promoted that suggests you should move your m.s account because:

  1. "Instance admins are considering defederating them"
  2. "Their admin is making spam accounts easier to create."

Very few, if any, instances are considering blocking m.s, and the recent spam attacks are worthy of sober discussion, not hyperbole. [more]

kkarhan,

@mastodonmigration depends...

In the end it's up to every server & instance admin to make a decisin.

Personally I'd recommend people who can to do .

Also based off issues with - , I think we need to avoid creating the :fediverse: - equivalents of :gmail: , :yahoo: & .com where said hosters get away with ignoring ...

Sometimes a precendent must be set and "Fix your spamming or GTFO" is reasonable.

I hate the fact that services like and .com are blocking whole servers because of some spam emails.

Instead of fighting by sharpening their filters they fight the infrastructure by blocking more and more small email servers.

This is killing email .

And now, instance admins are blocking mastodon.social that serves as an important entry point to the , killing Mastodon instead of fighting the spam accounts.

I'm still searching for a good #email app for #android. I'm speaking of #MaterialUI3, #MaterialYou, #OpenSource and secure.
Like.. yeah, K9Mail, EasyEmail exist. But.. those look really dated.

While #gmail (what I use at the moment) just doesn't give me notifications for my #IMAP mail addresses on an custom mail server (netcup) at all...

I've also used #outlook on my old phone, but that just got worse. Also it doesn't want to add my mail addresses..

Here’s a pano view of Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley from my back veranda. Easy to see why I spend a lot of time hanging out there. You should see it at night.

I have been dying to talk about this and finally can.

Remember that 0-click Outlook vulnerability with a custom sound leading to NTLM theft? The one that MSFT themselves stated it originated and was being actively used by Russian actors?

@nachoskrnl found a way to bypass the patch to it. By adding one singular slash.

Ich struggle weiter mit diesem katastrophalen .

Wie kann ich denn standardmäßig bei
→ zusätzlichen Postfächern (also zusätzlich ! zum Haupt-Postfach),
→ erzwingend „nur Text“-Nachrichten
→ bei Antworten (einer HTML-Mail)
einschalten oder überhaupt da innerhalb der Mailantwort switchen? 🤔

Im Haupt-Postfach werden die Einstellungen befolgt, im Zusatz-Postfach nicht (zumindest nicht bei Antworten). Unter Outlook Online läuft's, bei der Desktop-Fassung wird's ignoriert. 🥴

Kennt sich jemand mit diesem scheiß aus (ja, ich weiß). Wenn ich im kack Kalender von zu einem Termin inkl. Teams einlade, gibt es die Option. „Weiterleitung zu[zu]lassen“. Klingt erstmal selbsterklärend, aber was heißt das genau? Erhalten die zum Meeting Eingeladenen einen individuellen Code oder können sie sich nur mit ihrer Mailadresse einklinken? Oder ist das wieder so etwas Pseudosicheres von MS, wo nur die empfangene Mail „nicht“ weitergeleitet werden kann?🧐

Espechally since #Hardware & #OneTimePurchase #Software ain't their core business, but rather the "razer handle" aka. gateway to their #subscription services.

Making almost no #profit on an #Xbox or #Surface device is fine, cuz those will be bought by people who then buy #Games and pay for #subscriptions to #XboxGamePass & #XboxLive or #Office365 & #Outlook + #Exchange on #Azure respectably...

At work, we recently migrated to MS 365 for part of our email management and I discovered a tiny useful piece of software that simplifies for me the OAUTH2 based idiosyncratic system of Outlook and its friends.

A proxy now allows me to still use mutt, fetchmail, msmtp and exim to read and write emails.

Is your primary e-mail account ? As in the e-mail account we would use to communicate, so not necessarily your job related e-mail. Feel free to share widely.

koherecoWatchdog,

@vfrmedia @jwildeboer I not only refuse to patronize #Google & #Microsoft; I also refuse to send #email to #gmail & #outlook recipients. I go as far as an MX lookup in case their vanity address points to the server of a surveillance capitalist. It’s not perfect though b/c sometimes forwarding masks the role of google & ms. I also do not share my email address w/such users. So I rarely #email anymore.

Please tell me this can be turned off somehow? I have, like, twenty-five years of muscle memory of #Outlook’s sections being a horizontal bar at the bottom. Now they’re a vertical bar at the top, which requires more space and doesn’t do anything useful.

(In the Windows version, there’s a hidden registry key… for now. But what about the Mac version?)

Also didn’t ask for that world button. (No, I’m not going to use Outlook for my personal stuff.)

If this happens, this is a major victory for ActivityPub!

The Vergecast - ActivityPub is the next big thing in social https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vdmVyZ2VjYXN0/episode/MmE3N2Y1Y2MtNDlhZS0xMWVkLWE2ZGMtZjczYTRhNWY5MzEy?ep=14
>Flipboard CEO Mike McCue joins David and Nilay Patel to discuss the potential of #ActivityPub, a new standard for #social networking that is more open, more user-centric, and potentially more powerful than #Twitter and #Facebook. Can ActivityPub save the internet?

kkarhan,

@rmdes nodds in agreement

The problem is when some providers become "too big to ban" and act maliciously.

For example, due to #SPF, basically all #Spammers use #GMail, #YahooMail and #Outlook.com.

#Google, #Yahoo & #Microsoft are notorious for ignoring #abuse reports and not giving any shit, yet instantly & silently block mailservers if they don't setup SPF the way they want it.

Me: It's painful watching you deal with such utterly $#!++y software (esp. #Outlook), but I don't want so say anything, because it sounds like I'm just being critical.

Family Member: It's not like there's a choice.

Me: There's always a choice. The choices aren't easy, but you exchange one form of difficulty for another. It's like if you had a really terrible gardener. You'd fire him and do the weeding yourself. Still difficult, but way better.

It's a nightmare, and I've hated it for 25 years.

I've always explained that #Outlook is NOT an email client; it's a groupware client, and the email features are badly tacked on.

Outlook pro tip: when canceling a meeting, if you also are sending information in lieu of delivering it at the meeting (a status update or list of action items), DO NOT include that info in the cancelation message. Send it in a separate email. Outlook deletes meeting invitations, updates, and cancelations after the recipient acts on them.
