I am currently hosting my own email on a server that I rent and I am absolutely sick and tired of email issues, spam, google randomly being assholes and blocking my family’s traffic, just stupid shit. It’s a second fucking job at times. I have DKIM, DMARC, SPF all configured correctly, Google just randomly decides to stop my traffic randomly. Which of these options would you recommend for say up to 20 email accounts or so, using your own domain? I assume all of these options do things like spam filtering on the back end.

To be clear, I am not looking for free, just reasonable.

I first heard that one in the 80s, when I was in high school. I thought about making it more, but that’s how I heard it, so that’s how I’ll tell it. :)

As the joke goes…

Two scientists think they’ve cracked the secret of creating a humanzee. However, in order to test their theory, they need a human to mate with their chimpanzee, so they take out an add in the local newspaper (it’s an old joke. A newspaper is what we used for news in the before times) that reads, “Man wanted for sex with chimpanzee for $1000”

The next day a man walks in and says, “I’ll do it on three conditions. First, my wife can never know. Second, the children must be baptized. Finally, I’ll have to pay in installments.”

I tried the same thing, no luck. It was in 7th grade if I remember correctly - and that was 1984 for me so it’s been a minute. :)

The idea of choosing being served raw should be enough to track it down, and I’ve occasionally searched for it over the years, but…

The short story that sticks with me from junior high, that I have not been able to track down in the last 40 years or so, was if I remember right another lottery style tale. I think it was just the husband and the one chosen was eaten by the rest of the community - the twist was that the eatee got to choose the method of preparation, and in the story, he chose to be served raw. Anyone recall this story? I’d love to track it down.
