Decade of the Linux Desktop. It’s here guys!

Not to mention that most VPS IP ranges are on blocklists nowadays due to past abuse, and getting them whitelisted with every major provider you want to send emails to is an exercise in futility. Getting an address that’s not already blacklisted somewhere is quite rare.

To send mail reliably you’ll have to use a third-party service like SendGrid or MailChimp and configure your mail server to forward emails through them. They likely aren’t that expensive (completely free for the basic tier I think) for personal use cases (e.g you’re not sending newsletters to thousands or something) but it defeats the purpose anyway if your goal is to make your emails purely private.

Writing tests too. My recommendation to everyone interested in vibe coding who asks me is to instruct the AI to write the tests before the implementation.

It’s a vibe.
