Ciao, As a member of this mailing list, I have a little (OT) question for you: which is the best free email service around to receive mailing lists? I mean, somethihng that has a good Imap server, good enough to be accessed by a MUA like Thunderbird without issues, and good spam filter which won't bother me with false-positives?. Now, i'm using a free account on yahoo, as you can see, but I get some of email bounces and moreover spam filters are really awful: they mark as spam a lot of non-spam, genuine mails coming from i.e. the Gnome/Evolution mailing list. Some months ago I was subscribed on my primary account which is a Gmail one, but then I wanted to separate mailing lists from the rest (so I moved those to yahoo). What do you think about GMX?? Is it a good solution for that purpose? I've already one signed up so i'd would be trivial to set this apart and move to the @gmx.com one. Thank you! -- fp

I cannot personally recommend any free, proprietary email service providers. Instead I'd say that running your own mail server would be best for this, assuming you have some kind of always-on connection with a static IP you can utilise. Although incoming spam is a potential problem the real difficulties with running your own mail server in my opinion are (a) maintaining deliverability of outgoing mail and (b) making sure you're not relaying spam. Keeping software and configuration up to date is important. However, in the sort of scenario you describe, you might not need to use your mail server for outgoing mail which could simplify things. Ideally you could use your ISP's or domain provider's mail server for outgoing mail whilst directing incoming mail for your domain to your own server. (I should add that using your own domain is always wise, rather than relying on service providers' email addresses). Learning how to do all this could involve a learning curve but it's entirely feasible. -- Mark Rousell

In that case, I recommend against all such services. The cost of running a mail server that anyone can join for no fee, practically requires that the operators must make lots of money exploiting the email users. So your options are: * Pay for the valuable service of running an email system, with you as the customer, and with a direct interest in not screwing you over. * Find someone you trust to never screw you over (maybe this is yourself), and get that person to put in lots of time and expertise operating a mail system indefinitely for you. * Use a zero-fee email service that is practically guaranteed to exploit its users in many ways. I strongly recommend against the third option. -- \ “I got an answering machine for my phone.

I would suggest looking for somebody who runs Sympa. Open source, well supported, more "industrial strength" than Mailman (designed for universities, supporting lots of lists). I've been running it on our servers, for at least a decade (who's counting) - it's rock solid, well supported by both a core team (at Renater - the French Research & Education Network), and a larger community. (For example, a patch for DMARC came out almost immediately. It took a lot longer for a mailman patch to show up, and even longer for it to make into the standard release). Also, Sympa is built around a database, mailman isn't - makes a difference for folks running multiple lists. Lots more things that can be customized. There's a list of hosting providers at https://www.sympa.org/users/custom - but they're mostly in France. You might have to do a little hunting - or post on the sympa users list. There's also Groupserver (http://groupserver.org) - a rather interesting package that does a good job of melding traditional lists, with a web-based forum interface. It's open source, with hosting available - from a small group in New Zealand. It has a bit of traction in the "electronic democracy" community.

If I understand correctly, I think that Francesco was asking for a good (free) email service provider at which he could receive emails from mail lists, rather than a mail list provider. Nevertheless, thanks for your mail list software suggestions. I've heard of Sympa but never seen them described in the manner you did here. And I am sorry to say that I had never heard of GroupServer before. Thanks for the useful information. -- Mark Rousell

Hi Francesco, I'm on gmx.net since long and they frequently give me false positives even with addresses which I've been receiving for years or seemingly random messages from this or other mailing lists. Everytime I see those in the daily spam report I have to log in via their website interface to free them out of the spam folder to be able to download them with my precious email client. I've recently started to think this provider *wants* me to have to log in and use the website with all the horrible ads and articles... and so have been considering, as recommended by John Hasler, to switch to a paid email service provider, which I'm gonna do soon. My two cents... Kind regards, Stefan

Yes, it is, and being done automatically when you move mails out of the spam folder, I think, it's just always another sender which gets sorted out as spam. I never saw this happening until about a year ago or so. They probably changed their configuration or policy of treating free mail accounts, I think. Cheers!

While I'm sure they would love you to log in and see the 'adds' they provide, they never _require_ me to do so.

As many others have pointed out in this thread, "free" (I think you mean "no money" aka "cheap") and "best" somehow are in conflict. If you're not paying money, they are monetizing you in some other way. This is the sad reality of today's society (not that there aren't people fighting to change that, mind you). My recommendation over here in Germany (which should be as accessible to you as an Italian, but perhaps there are equivalent Italian offers, which I'd tend to support, were I you) - posteo.de - mailbox.org Each of them cost you 1 EUR/month, which is less than 1 Espresso/month. Worth every cent, IMHO. We get what we pay for. Short term (obvious) and long term (less obvious): those small companies would cease to exist if everyone took the "cheap way out".

Disable javascript in your browser: most cookie notifications (and other obnoxious things) *poof!* disappear as if by magic. (Ah, and I disable cookies for most purposes anyway). Some websites disappear in a black (sometimes white) hole. But sometimes, it's better to not see some things, anyway. We're entering an era of attention economy. May those sites go broke, as far as I'm concerned.

If you use Firefox, install "I don't care about cookies", which disables
those warnings on most sites. If the warning /isn't/ disabled, there's
an option to submit a report, so that the website can be checked and an
existing rule can be improved or a new rule added to cover it.
