I just set up my first ever email server and I’m proud of myself! 😊
Do you have any advice to avoid common problems? I mean something beginners often do that they shouldn’t.
Thanks!

Hmmm. I wonder what your password is? 😁
1234, of course!
Just kidding 😅 I use long, random passwords for each service, not reusing them ofc!
You’re in for a world of hurt. Email security is a pain in the ass. I used to do this full time and I’m so glad I don’t have to anymore.
Not trying to discourage you, it’s fun, it’s cool, but it can be a real PITA.
