I have three domain names, and have them all set to forward incoming email to my spam Gmail account. Then I use rules on the <strong>to:<\/strong> field to label them as they come in. It works quite well for pretty much every thing I need, with the exception of sending emails. And sending isn&#8217;t really a need, but it would make a lot of things easier. Anything from critical alerts to posting on this very WordPress site could be automated if I could send out email, and actually have it delivered. That is much more difficult than receiving.  MS and google have pretty much made it so you can&#8217;t use your own email server and get it delivered to the inbox, maybe spam if you do everything right.  I started this post a month or two ago.  I&#8217;m not sure when exactly, but the last time I created the VM qcow was March 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m now writing the actual posts, which should be two, possibly three posts, so that I can refer to them later with ease.  Postfix and OpenDKIM.  Possibly one to tie them all together.  Might be simpler to have it in one, but this is where I&#8217;m starting from my pages of notes and poorly labeled screenshots.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the saga of how gmail reluctantly accepted zabbix alerts from my self hosted postfix server Currently my email setup is quite simple.
