“There are few growth levers that could allow a single person to grow a startup from $0 to $1M ARR in months. There are fewer that could be done with nothing but an internet connection and a laptop—and virtually no budget. Cold outbound is one such lever.” https://t.co/3lag6TDAyk
@MgcLabs Glad you liked it! We found it difficult to get feedback and revenue from enough users to sustain development on it as a stand-alone product. We switched to using it to provide a premium email delivery service for sales teams in other software companies (https://t.co/KDYzHvEceX).

Interview by the EC's NGI about the challenges facing email, and how Lightmeter is helping: "When hosting email is as easy as hosting WordPress, then everyone can keep their private communications in a trustworthy place" #decentralized#dataSovereignty
Lightmeter monitors email servers to help fix message delivery problems, by reading server logs and automatically notifying technicians. 💡

We scanned the world's mailservers and found 92% of them running #OpenSource software - see what else was discovered in preliminary results just published https://t.co/DnIbqFXTqh #SMTP#nmap#postfix

Did you know that email greylisting can be applied at five different stages of delivery & processing? Today's new knowledgebase article explains which produces the fewest false positives #Greylisting#SMTP#AntiSpam https://t.co/VB2I0OaSoO
Behind every email is a trail of Delivery Status Notification (DSN) codes, recording success or failure. But the terms are tormenting: is DSN just a code, a message, an "Enhanced code" (ESC), or all of the above? Our new dictionary reveals all https://t.co/9yKawPEQUO #smtp
Making #OpenSource apps easy to update is really important. Case in point: #GitLab 😬 Only 21% of 60k public #GitLab installs have applied a critical 6 month security update https://t.co/RoNkwYEz58 @Cloud68HQ
Turns out 3m indie servers and 1m admins are good at keeping messages flowing. Ask your nearest email admin (don't ask Facebook) #resilience#facebookdown
When's the last time your mailboxes were down 5 hours? Time to show some love for ~1 million email admins who keep our inboxes flowing 24/7/365 😇 #facebookdown#smtp#linux
If WhatsApp infrastructure were owned by users, not Facebook, then #FacebookDown could only affect one household at a time. Communicating with family and work is too important to be the job of one company. Decentralize now! #EmailFTW
@WajahatAli No company should have this much power - global communications are too important for a single point of failure. Fortunately email has been decentralized and independently run for over 40 years. Check it out (for whatsapp over email try @delta_chat 😎)
