Hello all together,
I've been using the Donate Edition of the software for a while now.
Unfortunately, I can not find the area where the mail server can be set.
Can someone please show me where I can make the settings.
Thanks
Andreas

You don't set it up at all, you just enter your desired recipient email address. It comes from an externally managed email address

That is a great pity!
I did not intend to send the logos to the Internet.
I have an internal email server that does the forwarding.
I assume that I am not the only one who uses his own small email server.
Is there already a plan when this setting will be implemented?

Your question ("when") implies that this would be on Zenju's ToDo list.
Which it is not (as far as I know).
And even things that are on Zenju's ToDo list do not tend to have a (public) ready-date or -version.
Occasionally Zenju writes that something will be fixed, changed or added in the next to be released version, which will then normally be the case.

OK, thanks.
I had to ask the question as a "newbie".
Do you know of a way to reach Zenju to get him interested in this option?

This forum is a good place for that.
It does also allow others to express their interest or comments, if any.
But there is also an E-mail address listed at the bottom of the FFS About page.

Please don't email me, if you can help it. You're *much* more likely to get an answer via the forum. Generally I don't answer support requests and focus on program bugs and features.But there is also an E-mail address listed at the bottom of the FFS About page. Plerry, 11 Jul 2023, 15:37

I'm maintaining a private ToDo.txt instead of a public tracker (in order to keep my sanity).And even things that are on Zenju's ToDo list do not tend to have a (public) ready-date or -version.

Not sure if this would be a worthwhile feature.Unfortunately, I can not find the area where the mail server can be set. Bootspeedy, 11 Jul 2023, 11:30
Pro: Better privacy by not relying on Amazons email service?
Con: Additional GUI complexity, even for users for which Amazon SES is good enough, which I estimate is the majority.

Is privacy really a notable concern with modern E2E encryption?

Email is not E2E encrypted. Every mail server involved could read the email.Is privacy really a notable concern with modern E2E encryption? xCSxXenon, 11 Jul 2023, 17:11

Amazon SES supports it, Gmail supports it. The only requirement seems to be that the recipient supports TLS encryption. Probably shouldn't use any provider that doesn't have that support anyway. Or are you considering that since the receiving mail server is decrypting it to show it to the user that it is no longer private?

TLS is only the encryption between the servers. Still, each server can read the mail in full. There are variants of email with E2E encryption, but they require asymmetric encryption. For this kind of email it's not enough to only have the recipient email, you also need a public key.
