    @girish That issue appears to have happened again two days ago... So originally on May 19th, but most recently I see occurrences of Temporary translation failure on May 20, 2022 around 11:50 PM Pacific Time. So it's definitely an infrequent issue, but appears to be recurring periodically.

    Someone has written a script too - https://blog.alan.lt/2020/01/fix-emails-date-time-after-migration-to.html

    Ah yes, that's the script I used. šŸ˜‰

    @girish said in Email / Dovecot, possible data corruption:

    I will investigate more tomorrow. Maybe we can fix up mail data timestamps post restoring.

    Thanks Girish! Definitely seems like this is a low priority issue given that nobody else using Cloudron has run into this yet, but its also likely something that will come up again as Cloudron grows with more users, and would be great to see that handled in Cloudron automatically, making things easier for the admin users. šŸ™‚

    @3246 said in Backup mail service and primary MX:

    I added made sure the record includes "v=spf1 mx..." but it's still showing as erroring in Cloudron

    Sometimes it takes a while to propagate the change in DNS, so you may need to check it a few hours later.

    @JLX89 said in Cloudflare + PTR (rDNS) Settings Compatibly:

    Does anyone know if there is a way around this and enable proxying on example.tld with the mail server at the same location?

    AFAIK, this is not possible since Cloudflare does not support proxying mail.

    We are using Vultr for the VPS, so rDNS needs to be setup to reflect the server host (EX: example.tld), if pushing the mail server to mail.example.tld, the rDNS would need to be updated to that.

    Correct. You have to set the rDNS to the name of the mail server in Vultr.

    @girish said in Mailing list feature: basic moderation:

    I also feel this workflow is very specific to your request. Usually, people want real lists and moderators don't want to manually forward emails. Just my 2c.

    Perhaps it is specific to my workflow and I'm sure people would prefer real lists šŸ˜Š...but I would imagine people would still prefer a basic / manual kind of moderation rather than none at all. Currently we have the option of either a list in which anyone can send to (including spammers), or a fully private list unreachable from external people. So I was looking for a technically simple way to achieve an in-between, even if basic and unperfect, for lack of a better solution likely to be available on Cloudron anytime soon (in a similar way when I proposed to implement private list, which it turned out was simple enough and so you - as always brilliantly - implemented the idea). But I get that in this case it's not so simple šŸ™‚

    Thank you for looking into it anyway and for providing feedback.

    @atridad said in Interesting read on self-hosting email, with perhaps some tidbits that'd be helpful for Cloudron in the future (i.e. monitoring):

    the main difference is where the emails are stored when not in transit

    This was the case up until a few years ago. Nowadays a large part is deliverability.

    Every system on the internet can theoretically sent mails to any other system and this means that there are a lot of people actually using this to send spam. This has caused large providers to block out entire ip ranges and datacenters. So if you don't want to silently end up in the junk folders of gmail and office 365, your best bet is to send through them as well. Its not impossible to host your own mail, and there are still mail relays you could use to improve your chances, but it is definitely something to consider when self hosting mails.

    @girish The MX record resolves to an ISPs server (Strato): smtpin.rzone.de But I don't know if this is particular timeout is domain specific or applies to all of strato. I'm worried it might be the former, at least protocol wise at the point of the delay the recipient domain is known and the server could apply domain specific settings for the backoff/delay.

    that files were created past Jan-06.

    On that day we had an account hijacked that started sending out spam. I deactivated the account and it was working fine until past feb-16th, when email service started to crash.

    @girish Sure that's completely understandable, thanks for the reply.

    Given that neither mailman or SYMPA seems straightforward to implement in Cloudron I might revive this thread to add a basic moderation function to Cloudron mailing list. I believe for security purpose this is the main missing feature and the proposed approached may not be too hard to implement with the current backend(?).

    What users still won't get is the ability for members to subscribe and unsubscribe by themselves, but an admin can do that manually so at least it is doable.

    Another thing that would be nice is to be able to create a list from a Cloudron Group (i.e. mailing list that contains emails of everyone in a group and that gets updated each time you add or remove a user from a group). I don't know how your database works and how easy that might be to implement. What do you reckon?
    (Again this can be done manually so not as important as moderation, but just something that would be nice and possibly doable if the info are easily retrievable from the user database in the backend.)

    @girish Yes there are definitely more than 20 events, and the Next page still works to load more, it's just that dropdown to change how many records are shown at once which has an issue. I just updated to 7.0.3 so will try soon, unfortunately it seems the email logs were cleared after update, so there's no records in there at all now.
