> I'm probably the last person on earth to do so, but I write my posts in raw HTML. Although I don't use Blogger/Blogspot anymore and I render my blog using a static site generator [1], I too write my posts in raw HTML [2]. In the past, the differences in how various tools interpret and render some of the corner case scenarios like nested lists, code blocks or blockquotes nested within lists, etc. caused issues in porting my Markdown files from one system to another. Granted, there is CommonMark now and I think it is a pretty good specification but it is not a standard like HTML5 is. I prefer standards, so that I know with a reasonable degree of confidence that what I write now would look the same 10 years from now.

I follow the usual best practices and set up DNS TXT records for Sender Policy Framework (SPF), DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), and Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance (DMARC). Only DKIM requires configuring the MTA for it because the MTA needs to know where the DKIM private key is to sign emails and what the DKIM selector, domain, etc. should be in the DKIM-Signature header. From my Makefile[1]: # -------------------------------------------------------------- # Enabling DKIM ... # -------------------------------------------------------------- echo DKIM_CANON = relaxed >> /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros echo DKIM_SELECTOR = s1 >> /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros echo DKIM_DOMAIN = $(FQDN) >> /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.localmacros echo DKIM_PRIVATE_KEY = /etc/exim4/exim.key >> /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.l

ocalmacros openssl pkey -in /etc/exim4/exim.key -pubout -outform DER | base64 -w 0 > /tmp/publickey After that, it is just a matter of adding the necessary TXT records for SPF, DKIM, and DMARC to the DNS zone. The relevant section in the Makefile[2]: # -------------------------------------------------------------- # Generating DNS records ... # -------------------------------------------------------------- @echo "Add the following TXT records to DNS:" @echo @echo "@ TXT v=spf1 mx -all" @echo "s1._domainkey TXT p=$$(cat /tmp/publickey)" @echo "_dmarc TXT v=DMARC1; p=reject; adkim=s; aspf=s" Having said that, I have also found in the past that major email providers would accept emails sent by my MTA just fine even without these measures. For a long time, I did not have SPF, DKIM, or DMARC enabled and I did not observe any issues. However, it is a good practice to use these measures to make it harder for a bad actor to spoof and send spam that appears to originate from your domain.

I posted this two days ago. I believe a moderator must have rescued this post today to bring it to the front page. By the way, I posted this link because I've been running my own mail transfer agent (MTA) for my personal vanity domain to send/receive emails for about 10 years now and I often forget why I need to edit /etc/mailname while setting up the MTA, so I posted this link to HN as a bookmark for myself. (Who else uses HN submissions as bookmarks?) I use Exim 4 as my MTA on Debian GNU/Linux. During its setup, among many other things, I need to configure /etc/mailname with the domain name I want to see in the "From:" field of outgoing security notification emails, e.g., email notifications for failed sudo attempts. If you want to take a look at my MTA setup, see this Makefile: https://github.com/susam/susam.in/blob/master/mta/Makefile
