### Properly configuring a mailserver
|
|
[These docs](https://nixos-mailserver.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup-guide.html)
|
|
explains (in depth) how to configure [simple-nixos-mailserver](https://gitlab.com/simple-nixos-mailserver/nixos-mailserver)
|
|
and achieve a 10/10 [mail-tester](https://mail-tester.com) score.
|
|
|
|
Due to a lot of internet politics self-hosting a mail server isn't always
|
|
super easy. TLDR a lot of VPS subnets get abused and get registered on blacklists.
|
|
You should test your IPv4 address (or domain) on [MxToolbox](https://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx)
|
|
first. If you're not blacklisted you you'll only need to worry about writing
|
|
out DNS records (very specific ones that avoid your emails going straight to spam).
