basemion Show HN: Posthorn, self-hosted mail gateway

We've chosen Apprise just for the big number of services supported, actually at the moment we only use email and telegram as notification output channels.

Apprise does not accept SMTP protocol as input, so you're bound exclusively to API, binary exec or third party integrations.

I think Posthorn could fill a gap if it will integrate the possibility to send a webhook (alongside/instead of email).

basemion Show HN: Posthorn, self-hosted mail without the mail server

Nice project, nice initial subset of options.

At work I'm using Apprise (https://appriseit.com/) to deliver notifications.

Are you planning to add more services or to limit Posthorn to emails?

basemion Upgrades from Debian 12 [to 13]

I posted this to highlight how many steps you need to release upgrade Debian while on Ubuntu is often just one command (`do-release-upgrade`).

As profit on Debian you learn how the package manager works and you become confident using its low level tools when things break.

basemion Solanine

At school they used to teach us that if you cook a potato, the solanine will break down, but according to the article it seems not true at all :(

basemion Cat without cat on the commandline (2020)

The main purpose of `cat` is not to print a single file to stdout but to conCATenate files to stdout [0]. Of course if I have a single file it's printed alone. Just here to say that `cat` is not a synonym of `print`, but nowadays it's "cat FILE" everywhere. Even in APIs... [1] (Compact and aligned text? XD)
