tilde.team has a mailserver. here are your options:
|
|
|
|
### clients and connection settings
|
|
|
|
- mutt - should work out of the box
|
|
- alpine - should work out of the box
|
|
- [webmail](https://mail.tilde.team)
|
|
- imap/smtp
|
|
- some clients will autoconfigure (tested with thunderbird)
|
|
- email address: username@tilde.team (or any of the aliased [domains](domains))
|
|
- username: username (without the domain)
|
|
- password: your shell password
|
|
|
|
#### connection info
|
|
|
|
| protocol | hostname | port | security |
|
|
|----------|-----------------|------|----------|
|
|
| imap | imap.tilde.team | 143 | starttls |
|
|
| imaps | imap.tilde.team | 993 | tls |
|
|
| pop3s | pop.tilde.team | 995 | tls |
|
|
| smtp | smtp.tilde.team | 587 | starttls |
|
|
| smtps | smtp.tilde.team | 465 | tls |
|
|
|
|
note: these domains all resolve to the same IP of our main server.
|
|
|
|
### alternate domains and addresses
|
|
|
|
because [~ben](https://tilde.team/~ben/) hoards domain names, you can
|
|
use any of the [domains on this list](domains) with your tildemail:
|
|
|
|
mail sent to yourusername@ any of those domains will end up in your
|
|
inbox. most clients will allow you to add additional identities/aliases.
|
|
|
|
additionally, any address with a `+` and arbitrary text behind it
|
|
will be forwarded to your email: ie. `yourusername+somethingcool@tildeteam.org`.
|
|
plus-addresses are very useful for filtering mail.
|
|
|
|
### outlook
|
|
For outlook, there's a specific setup - if you have to use it and prefer to not
|
|
have multiple email clients, you can do this.
|
|
|
|
1. Run `outlook.exe /manageprofiles` and make sure outlook is closed before hand
|
|
2. Now you should have a windows with three options, click `email accounts...`
|
|
3. Click on `New` in the first tab to create a new email account
|
|
4. Select manual setup or additional server types and then select `POP or IMAP`
|
|
5. Fill the servers in using the table. Not it won't work yet as we need to do some things.
|
|
6. After entering the details on the page, select `More Settings`, go to `Outgoing Server`
|
|
and select `Log on using` and fill the username (without domain) and password
|
|
7. Then go into the `Advanced` tab and fill in the ports and connection types as per the table.
|
|
Make sure all the ports are correct and click `ok` and then finally click `next`
|
|
|
|
Everything should now be setup.
|
|
|
|
### forwarding and sieve
|
|
|
|
if you would like your tildemail to be forwarded somewhere else, put that
|
|
email address in a file called `~/.forward`
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
echo myotheraddress@example.com > ~/.forward
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
we also have [sieve](http://sieve.info) and
|
|
[managesieve](https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/pigeonhole_managesieve_server/) support.
|
|
|
|
scripts belong in `~/sieve/`, with the active sieve script
|
|
named `~/.dovecot.sieve` (to conform with managesieve).
|
|
|
|
here are some [example sieve scripts](
|
|
https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/sieve/examples/)
|
|
|
|
managesieve is available on the default port (4190) if you want
|
|
to use an external managesieve client (like the [thunderbird add-on](
|
|
https://github.com/thsmi/sieve)).
|
|
|
|
[our webmail](https://mail.tilde.team/#/settings/filters) is pre-configured
|
|
to manage your sieve scripts.
