# email

your tilde.cafe account comes with a @tilde.cafe email address

## checking mail

- `neomutt` (and `mutt`) are pre installed and should work out of the box
- there is also a webmail client at [mail.tilde.cafe](https://mail.tilde.cafe).
  sign in with your username and shell password

you could also use your own client and connect with imap/smtp or pop3:

- email address: username@tilde.cafe
- username: username (without domain)
- password: your shell password
- imap: imap.tilde.cafe
	- tls: port 993
	- starttls: port 143
- pop3: pop.tilde.cafe port 995
- smtp: smtp.tilde.cafe
	- tls: port 465
	- starttls: 587

## forwarding

if you would like to forward all your mail to a different email address, put
the destination email inside `~/.forward`

    echo myemail@example.com > ~/.forward

## sieve

we support per-user sieves. (this is like filtering a specific email address,
subject containing something, etc to a particular folder, and more).

here are some example sieves: https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples

put your scripts in `~/sieve/`, and have a symlink `~/.dovecot.sieve` linking
to your active script in `~/sieve/`.

you can also manage and create your filters/sieves through our
[webmail](https://mail.tilde.cafe) with a graphical user interface if you like.
