Yes it is. The "server" in "serverless" means no need to low-level manage/provision a server (computer) and its lifecycle. While "server" in "A serverless email server" means actually "service" as in "A serverless email service on AWS using S3 and SES". Which makes much more sense.
The linked repo lets you have an "email server" just like GSuite gives you a "serverless email server".
- throwaway894345 6y agoI don't understand. You insist it's a contradiction but then go on to reiterate my own argument which demonstrates that it is not, in fact, a contradiction but rather using the same term ("server") to refer to two distinct concepts ("computer" vs "service")?
- darkwater 6y agoIt's a contradiction because it's an incorrect overload of the word "server".
- throwaway894345 6y agoWell, Oxford English Dictionary disagrees with you.
