I really don’t like the “but otherwise we’d need a warrant” approach.
Yes, of course you should need a warrant. That’s the bit that’s the safeguard and actually is the checks and balance against abuse. It’s not a problem to be optimized away.

Traditional lox is just brined in salt, no smoking.
Gravadlax is brined in salt and sugar with spices.
Smoked salmon is just smoked salmon, like nova, in the US.
Due to customer preference and lack of knowledge, most want smoked salmon when they ask for lox, so are sold lox.
Sounds like you need bevel gears.

I’m with Gordon though. It’s easier to move the fitting than rig up gearing.
I’ve done this for years, but also:
- anything automated goes straight to specific folders for those categories. Very quickly identify stuff that’s noise and put in rules to move it out of your inbox. Sure some stuff you might need, but anything that’s corporate spam needs automating away.
- use (and create if necessary) the right mail groups so your whole team, project partners, whoever see the right emails and ask people to use them.
- add a VIP rule to highlight emails from the boss, VP, anyone you know you want to read right away
- be clear with people on how to reach you. If you prefer Slack for immediate stuff, tell people. It’s fine to be clear that email is for less immediate consumption, or non-conversational stuff. Slack is far better for collab.
Most towers will fit 4 drives.
If you’re out of SATA ports or M2s you can buy PCI adapters.
If you’re buying SSDs they’re small and don’t care about orientation, can but plugged into the cables and stuffed anywhere in the case that doesn’t impede airflow.
Where do you want your drives? What sort of drives? I’ve also found it more performant to stuff them in the case and 4 drives isn’t a stretch unless you’re also running a ton in the target server.
Fastmail.
But, it’s not the cheapest. $5 a month gets what you need though.
Really quick WebUI, great features, including hosting your own domains and smtp rewriting.
Very smart helpful support team.
Great for degoogling.
The major email providers will only handle email from know good and trusted IPs. If you’ve been hosting on the same IP for 15 years you’re trusted. If you started it last night your IP is still untrusted. It takes a long time to gain trust.
SendGrid has a good explanation here: https://sendgrid.com/resource/email-guide-ip-warm-up/
That’s cool. I’ve used crafty for years, but mainly because I outgrew my scripts to manage each server instance and my kids need instance responses to restarting servers. So I went looking for something Minecraft specific to give them restart and reset commands.
Moving to Caseta for lighting from the random mix of bulbs which never quite work was amazing. It's also much cheaper to put in one controllable switch than replace the 6 bulbs in the light fittings connected to the wall switch. Those bulbs always fail in weird and non-debuggable ways.
I use Crafty Controller (https://craftycontrol.com/) to manage the minecraft servers. It runs in a docker instance and gives you a nice web UI to manage each minecraft server. I use it to delegate control to my kids to create and manage servers as necessary.
Finally, if you're not using a config mgmt tool, I'd start looking, so you can make everything easily re-doable. Personally I'm using Ansible, but puppet, chef, salt, etc all work too. Ansible is easiest given it does need it's own infra. I like it so if something dies I can redeploy everything onto a different server.
I've had a lot of success with a QOTOM box from aliexpress.
They're little fanless boxes running basic intel Core chips, in a variety of configs.
I've run OPNSense and PFSense as routers (also doing wireguard, torrents, etc), as well as just standard Ubuntu server.
Very small and low power, and pretty cheap. They come in a variety of configs.
I run ddclient on a local machine and it updates my Cloudflare DNS records if my IP changes.
OPNSense has it built in too, if you use it. So does PFSense, I think. Been a while, might be misremembering.
If you want a reliable provider try Fastmail. Used them for years, very rare outages. I have my local postfix set to relay to them for locally sent mail. Great web UI.
