TL;DR: - I started writing this post a week ago but got interrupted by a baby, Jules - Spent MANY hours on writing OpenSMTPD-related articles - Enabled continuous integration in the OpenSMTPD portable repository - Managed to get rid of all the blocking is…

TL;DR: - NO TL;DR: this time, I spent hours writing, you should spend minutes reading. - OK...

TL;DR: - Mail is not hard: people keep repeating that because they read it, not because they tried it - Big Mailer Corps are quite happy with that myth, it keeps their userbase growing - Big Mailer Corps control a large percentage of the e-mail address sp…

TL;DR: - small inprovements to the fion window manager - plakar is a backup utility I wrote a long time ago that I will share - tons of opensmtpd stuff, mostly filters and issues handling Shout outs to my patrons !

TL;DR: - not much work outside of OpenSMTPD this week - OpenSMTPD portable builds with OpenSSL 1.1.x again - smtp-out reporting is working correctly on my laptop - wrote two filters that I'm actually using as you read this Shout outs to my patrons !

TL;DR: - started working on FION, a static tile window manager - revived BPG, a PGP parser - converted OpenSMTPD to libtls - wrote a library to make writing of native C OpenSMTPD filters easy - started writing a filter-rspamd Thanks to my patrons !

TL;DR: In this post I explain crudely how ca.c works and changes to OpenSMTPD related to ca.c I wrote an ECDSA privsep crypto engine I did some EEG work too This is the first report # I will now switch to a monthly report of my tech activities on this bl…

TL;DR: Way too many things happened in a six months timeframe.

TL;DR: regex table lookups were introduced for builtin filters.

TL;DR: Not this time, pal/gal, I took hours writing this post, you'll take a few minutes reading it all.

TL;DR: I *FINALFUCKINGLY* commited proc filters support allowing full filtering in OpenSMTPD. eric@ implemented fc-rDNS lookups.

TL;DR: The reporting mechanism has been described shortly in my previous article about both reporting and filters.

TL;DR: Filters have been a (the most ?)

TL;DR: Switching to new config is not too hard and can be done in minutes.

TL;DR: OpenBSD #p2k18 hackathon took place at Epitech in Nantes.

TL;DR: I run several "dedibox" servers at online.net, all powered by OpenBSD.

TL;DR: deraadt@ thought it would be nice to have a spf fetch utility in base.

TL;DR: Came very close to a burn out late 2016, had to quit former employer.

TL;DR: We just released OpenSMTPD 6.0.0 and it's quite different from former releases.

TL;DR: OpenSMTPD on github no longer diverges from OpenBSD.

TL;DR: yeeeees, filters are coming. don't believe us ?

EHLO, This is the third post of a series about OpenSMTPD improvements that have taken place since this summer.

Why we killed the MFA (filter) process # For as long as I can remember, a process called MFA was created by OpenSMTPD at start time.

EHLO world !

Good news everyone !

Hey, No OpenSMTPD news since almost a month… time to break the trend !

EHLO readers, This blog post is the first since a few months, I’ve been busy and struggling with some personal health and familial issues.

Yop, This week has been very productive with several tickets closed and more about to be closed.

OHAI, I have not updated this blog since the release of OpenSMTPD 5.3, over a month ago.

OHAI !

OHAI, We had planned to slow down a bit to prepare for release: no more feature, no more invasive changes until we tag something out of which we can publish a release.

OHAI, Lately we have stabilized and decided that we’re okay with the features we have for our first release, this time for good, so we focused on making sure that we didn’t introduce regressions and that we were rock solid.

<p>Hey,</p> I wanted to publish something last Friday but I unfortunately got my hands on a copy of Super Nintendo's Zelda which led to an instant loss of motivation.

YO!

OHAI, I was unable to write a story last week as my desk broke into pieces for no apparent reason but my foot hitting it accidentally.

<p>OHAI,</p> This week has been crazy, my brain melted a little as I worked on filters, it melted a little as I worked on LDAP and it melted a little more as I tried to trick Eric into working on filters with me (yes, that actually worked :-).

OHAI, This week I had intended to work on filters.

OHAI, First of all, on a completely unrelated note, I’d like to emphasize that this blog post is being written from my text editor launched by a little shell and pushed to poolp using the Ocean API.

Almost a month since my last post… I know, I know.

The crypto backend that has been committed a couple days ago started a little discussion and it was decided to switch the default cipher from Blowfish to AES-128 and make it a default.

A few days ago, Charles committed the compress_backend API which allowed transparent deflation/inflation of envelopes and messages as they hit the queue.

Howdie, Eric and I had planned a loooooong time ago to have a hackathon this week-end.

It’s been over a month since my last post but I have an excuse: I was super busy, then I was super on vacation … but I’m back again ;-) I take short consulting engagements — architecture review, technical due diligence, mail infrastructure — through aljun…

Yesterday, I came back from Budapest and was too tired to write anything, but here’s a quick summary of all the features that have been implemented with regard to OpenSMTPD by Eric, Charles and I.

Yesterday, after nearly missing my plane by 5 minutes, I finally managed to make it to Budapest for g2k12, the OpenBSD general hackathon.

It’s been a while since my last post about OpenSMTPD.

This is the first post of a series to illustrate and describe a “proof of concept” code by Charles, Eric and I.

First of all, I’d like to “thank” The Spamhaus project which forced me into hacking this feature in a hurry.

When we first started working on OpenSMTPD, we planned for future features but we did not necessarily start integrating them right away as the goal was to bootstrap the project first with basic features.

Ok, I already posted about the new SQLite map_backend earlier today but it turns out that I’ve been very productive, and it was worth another post ;-) I take short consulting engagements — architecture review, technical due diligence, mail infrastructure —
