@gmc you don't have to, but it would be super cool if you do 😌
I tend to want to host my own stuff :)
I do run my own mailserver already, but I don't think I'd want to use that for it.
Anyway, I'm putting it on the list to check out! It's a rather cool concept, I've been thinking about something just like it a lot over the past years.
@gmc @adbenitez if you just configure a dedicated chat-address on your existing e-mail server you should be fine. Your mail server needs proper DKIM signing, SPF or DMARC is not neccessary.
It's true that you don't get push notifications then but you might have a phone that doesn't require it maybe? On android delta typically works also without push notifications.
