My guess is they won't struggle too much to get the site itself back online (they at least claim it was "bare metal", so charitably just containers), but replacing the email service providers and other authentication / SaaSy bits will be a challenge.
- coolspot 6y agoEmail service providers? What’s that? sudo apt install postfix Configure DMARC and SPF and you’re fine.
- bpodgursky 6y agoYes, it's as easy as those two commands, unless you want people to actually receive your emails.
- manquer 6y agoIt is not that simple yes, however it is not too hard, especially if you are mostly only sending to registered users. It is lot harder to setup a dc and get ISPs to peer with you than setup the app itself.
- jeofken 6y agoDo you have some resource to share on this simple set up?
- manquer 6y agoThere are one or two projects like postal[1] or mailbox[2] that make it much easier than it was before. [1] https://github.com/postalhq/postal https://github.com/postalhq/postal [2] https://github.com/mail-in-a-box/mailinabox https://github.com/mail-in-a-box/mailinabox
- tjpnz 6y agoI'm curious about how they'll handle SMS. I once worked for a place that self hosted a message gateway by co-locating a bunch of cellphones alongside their servers. It worked but probably wouldn't scale for their purposes. Our setup also assumed that customers were in the same country as the servers.
