best email how to i've read

Back in 2006 I wanted to self host my mail. After two weeks of feeling with a bunch of howtos from the linux documentation project I gave up. That was also probably due to me getting free email hosting from google. When that offer ended, I thought about self hosting again , this time documentation was way better. This book is huge howtos and covers everything email related. The protocols, the history. It also provides exemples, sequencing : what to do first and then. I've been using email and managing some email related domains for 25ish years. I've learned a lot and would recommend that every sysadmin reads this book.

Otto Penzler: Golden Age Locked Room Mysteries (2022, Penzler Publishers)

Very good collection of mysteries

An interesting set of locked door mysteries from the Golden Age of detective fiction (roughly the 1920s and 1930s). Fourteen interesting and ingenious tales with unexpected twists and turns along the way. I particularly enjoyed the Ellery Queen's The House of Haunts and C. Daly King’s The Episode of the Nail and the Requiem.

Warning that some of the stories do have dated attitudes, especially towards women (thus dropping the rating to four stars). #Bookstodon

5 out of 5 stars Two bots slowly work their way to independence, friendship and then love while searching for the mythical Root. #Bookstodon

E. W. Doc Parris: Aurora's Pale Light (2024, Magic Genius, LLC)

5 out of 5 stars An excellent continuation of the Walrus tech series. The characters and story are very engaging. I'm looking forward to reading the next book when it is released. I really appreciate the plot recap from the first book that the author provided. #Bookstodon

5 / 5 stars

A wonderful second book in the series. Abdullah's story slowly builds and reveals his character and wit. When characters from the first Bill finally started appearing I was fully invested in Abdullah's story. It was good to have them but they were incidental to me. #Bookstodon

a publié une critique de Morphotropic par Greg Egan

Greg Egan: Morphotropic (EBook, 2024)

Another engaging exploration of a different reality from Greg Egan

Engaging exploration of a world where cells are more generic and called cytes. The cytes can survive on their own as unicellular organisms, group together in multicultural organisms and even be exchanged between different people or animals. #Bookstodon

a publié une critique de Bone Silence par Alastair Reynolds (Revenger series)

Alastair Reynolds: Bone Silence (2020, Orion Publishing Group, Limited)

Sequel to Shadow Captain.

Sweeping continuation of the Ness sisters' story

Alistair Reynolds delivers a sweeping continuation of the Ness sisters' story in Bone Silence. Old foes reappear, new allies are made and lots of stunning revelations.

In the acknowledgements Alistair writes that he is setting the Ness sisters aside "for a while". I look forward to reading more about them and/or the Congregation. #Bookstodon

Hello world, time for a new !
I’m a microbiologist ➡️ health wonk in .

Besides work, I enjoy (mostly fiction), language(s), traveling, Star Trek, the occasional Nintendo game, and activism.

In the fediverse I can’t wait to see your cat photos (dogs are ok too), improve my French, and dismantle the patriarchy.
