Just joined a couple of days ago so only fair to sum up the things I host myself.

I have 2 locations I host my personal stuff.

  • Datacenter:

    • Websites
    • DNS servers
    • Lemmy
    • Friendica
    • Mail servers

  • Home:

    • Home Assistant
    • Frigate
    • Jellyfin (incl Sonarr, Radarr etc)
    • Immich
    • Fileserver
    • Nextcloud

In the Datacenter I still run a VMware ESXi server that needs to be replaced (this winter) and at home I have a Truenas server and 4 Proxmox nodes cluster.

    I also have a mail filter, I have been hosting my own mail server for the last 25 years.

      Out of interest what are you using? I was postfix/courier for a long time, with a must migrate to dovecot 10 years ago. Finally migrated this year and the performance difference is noticeable

        I recently moved to Mailcow, it’s a one in all solution. My spam filter is Proxmox mail gateway, also very user friendly.

          Have you by any chance documented your PMG set up? I’m also a very happy Mailcow user and spinning up PMG is something I’ve been meaning to tackle for years so I can implement archiving with mailpiler, but I’ve never really wrapped my head around how everything fits together.

            There is not much to document on how to set it up. The gui is very intuitive.

            You need to setup the relay domains, transports and Options>DNSBL under configuration > mail proxy

              Thanks for the response. I really should just dive in, but I’ve got this nagging fear that I’m going to forget about some DNS record that will bork my entire mail service. It good to hear about some working instances that people are happy with.

                After you setup the mail gateway you can telnet to port 25 and do the command line mail test and see if mail is delivered to your mail server. After that is confirmed you change your dns mx records.

                  That’s a great tip. I’d completely forgot you can use telnet for that. Thanks!
