mercutio: feels like we should use it more now.
mike-burns: Well, Arp's servers keep just working. Not too much to say.
mercutio: yeh can always talk about other things
kellytk: Does Arp host a Matrix node?
JC_Denton: any of y'all run your own mail (SMTP) through ARP? any experiences w/ the IP space's reputation? i was a Metal customer for awhile and then migrated away when things got a bit too price heavy. i've lurked on the channel, because i'm terrible about clearing my buffers (ha). i've thought about the VPS / non-traditional metal again.
kellytk: JC_Denton No however I'm interested and would follow the progress
Perhaps there could be a set of Arp community config sets that help people get a quality system in place, whether it be web, mail, telnet
If they were in a repo it'd be easy for everyone to contribute
It'd make it easier to get something up and running, and better for Arp and the other customers because for example a well behaving mail neighbor on the internet is important for assignments in proximity
JC_Denton: kellytk: there are a ton of good how-to's out there for it
i'm merely interested if the IP space still has a good reputation in the eyes of Gmail and Co.
kellytk: Fair enough
JC_Denton: my current provider has allowed the IP space adjacent to mine to become a spam pit, so many providers seem to consider the entire /24 tainted
i guess that's to say that i'm tired of battling IP reputation forms, but not tired enough to cave to being a Gmail user again ;-)
kellytk: Something needs to be done about the email cartel
JC_Denton: good luck. they are a functional juggernaut. many people naturally assume when they ask for your email that it ends in @gmail
kellytk: True indeed
And websites end in .com, of course
JC_Denton: less of that nowadays; ironically and perhaps thanks in part to the cute TLDs being adopted by the big tech companies
