There is currently a 1:1 relationship between a client and a provider. I think this should greatly be decoupled. I'd replace clients with "first match wins" mail routes.
I haven’t had a chance to play with this yet, but my curiosity is piqued.
Why PostgreSQL instead of SQLite?
There is an opportunity to BCC all messages on the way through to create an Archive of mail that has left the system.
Can this match outbound mails FROM and/or local SMTP-AUTH to a specific Mail Provider Account? ie - Can I have 5 Office 365 accounts as separate mail providers that each handle different mail based on the mail’s origin parameters?
Would you consider an ordered full matrix conditional map of which outbound account should be used: Local-SMTP-User, From Regex, To Regex? I’ve got a need to send specific Mail “RCPT TO” via Google Workspace for deliverability reasons, while I’d like all other Mail to go out my main provider.
I guess what I’m sharing is… if you have interest in making this a feature rich tool, I have a complex Smart Host configuration I’d be willing to move here as a test.
Does PD include a specification that allows a client device to share its current battery level? How does Apriv know which device “needs” a high output level?
> Using dual-port modules, the system recognizes that, say, one smartphone battery in the vehicle is at 5 percent of capacity and a second phone is at 75 percent. The programming module gives the former device 100W and the latter 25W.
The market is FULL of hosted providers. Every single one has its ups and downs.
I’d like to take a moment to acknowledge the technical knobs that Google Workspace and MS Office 360 provide over mail routing. Clearly they have enough large customers with in-house IT staff that demand this level of control and “the rest of us” get the benefit. Once you leave their platforms it’s easy to be disappointed. I can’t say that their platforms are good just technically feature rich; Google’s insistence on silently discarding “duplicate” messages is infuriating but other platforms will have a different set of problems.
If you don’t need enterprise control… Lately, I’ve been on MXroute.com, mostly because the team seems dedicated to trying to make something good. It’s not polished yet. They are opinionated. It’s designed for you to point your MX at them and check your mail via IMAP and send via Authenticated SMTP, that’s it, nothing more. Sure, they have extra features that will work but clearly that’s not their focus.
iCloud+ is also worth looking at and is often underrated. Many folks already have a paid iCloud+ account. Here, you can just turn on “Custom Email” as a set it and forget it option.
While I’m writing non-sense, I’ll ask what others are doing for inbound mail control and spam filtering. Prior to moving to MXroute, I was using SpamStopsHere that offered incredible flexibility and control. It was acquired by Zix and then dismantled.
