I encounter this mostly with manga. (I’ll not rehash what others have said).

FWIW, and in that use case, I deal with it by renaming x5 to x5.0 so it will sort before x5.5. And then usually put both into an x5 directory and then zip that into a CBZ.

Hosting your own email server is a challenge, as DMARC, SPF and random hand waving by email companies (who should know better) make it needlessly problematic.

There’s also the issue of whether your home ISP allows inbound email ports (25/tcp, etc). A lot don’t.

It’s possible(?) a hosting provider can do decent email, but I tend to think of that like 1990s-era ISPs who provided email: liable to be discontinued at any time with little/no notice and not portable.

But it’s your call. Good luck.

Many email providers have an inbuilt tool that will handle all this for you.

Fastmail, for example. I switched to them 4-5 years ago, and the process of migrating over a decades worth of mail was straightforward and pretty quick.

I have Netdata running in a container, which has a useful all-in-one-pane view, and it does a good job of auto detecting other containers and the host OS. Its essentially zero config.

It also has alerting capability, which is not zeroconf (configuring it properly is a bit of a chore). 😅

They try to push a pro/paid version, but it’s subtle and completely optional (a bit like the way Portainer does it).

TIL that version appears to be on the AUR: MicroEMACS/PK 4.0.15 customized by Linus Torvalds.

Last updated in 2014, it probably has serious cobwebs now. Even the upstream hasn’t been touched in 6 years.

Had no idea about this. Very useful, thanks!

I second this, as it’s my use case.

Providing you lay out each note correctly with appropriate frontmatter, Dataview’s DQL and DataviewJS give you all the SQL-like functionality you could want.

Plus a load of useful functionality beyond a plain DB.
