One of the things that tripped me up at first was the postfix settings. smtpd_* options are for receiving mail, and smtp_* (no d) are for sending. So you need smtp_tls_cert_file = /etc/letsencrypt/live/$domain/fullc

If you're comfortable with command-line Linux, and have a basic understanding of DNS, setting this up from scratch is actually not all that hard. After researching the hell out of this a few weekends ago, the best guide I found on the

This is awesome, thanks for sharing. The full build process is documented [1,2], and the sources are very readable and well-commented. Also appears to include a basic install-to-disk script, which from the looks of it you definitely should

Context needed! For me, it'd be a Samsung 960 Pro [1]. Or perhaps an Arduino starter kit [2] or an excellent introductory DIY speaker kit [3]. For a more mainstream audience, I dunno, you can't go wrong with a giftcard to Amazon.

Honestly, your best first step might be a university library. You want to look for retired authors, people that had very successful careers and are no longer incentivized to keep a lid on their accumulated wisdom. Be wary of academic author
