PRO TIP - any time you make changes to authentication settings on a system - ssh, pam, sudoers, and so on - open a second root terminal to that system and leave it open until AFTER you verify your changes worked correctly, so you don't get locked out of your system. Great stuff as always, Luke.

Luke it appears you've got yourself confused between SSH keys and GPG keys. The keypair used to log into your server and copied to your server with ssh-copy-id is an SSH keypair. Your GPG key can be used to encrypt files on your computer or for email (or for many other things). But they aren't used for SSH. The command people should run before ssh-copy-id is ssh-keygen -t ed25519 OR ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 (never use dsa or ecdsa, dsa is insecure and ecdsa is standardised by the NSA and probably insecure)

Luke. Thanks very much man. Thanks to you I was able to set up my website with your clear instructions (I used your referral links so hopefully that's an appropriate thank you). I also checked out your website and your recommendation for language learning particularly German and the course by Michel is great. I listened to the introductory section and was able to string together basic sentences which months of duolingo have been unable to teach me. Also, you were instrumental in getting me into vim and a lot of the stuff in linux. So please keep up the content in linux, as much as you may be getting tired of it.

[@gabryatfendor]

Just an hint (because I encountered this issue): debian could have ufw (firewall) enabled by default. To allow connections for http and https to your server you can run the 2 following commands: ufw allow 80 ufw allow 443 Otherwise you won't be able to connect to your website. Same goes for the mail settings ufw allow 993 ufw allow 587

For anyone, who is also using Vultr's Hosting: I needed to open a support ticket and ask them to open smtp port 25. Great video Luke!

[@roberteats]

Thanks! Kind of silly they make you write a confession letter to unblock it

[@HushedDeath]

Important Note: If you're using Vultr, you may have to contact their support to inquire about the e-mail ports being opened or not, depending on your location. I had to have 'em open them up manually to get outbound mail working.

[@DennisChaves]

I just opened a support ticket with Vultr because it's also not working for me. I'm wondering if you had the same problem as me... Thunderbird won't connect. So I checked systemd on the server to find that dovecot failed to start because UFW blocked it. So I set UFW to allow ports 993 & 587 but still no go. Did that happen to you too?

[@HushedDeath]

@@DennisChaves That didn't happen with my case here, thankfully. The main issue I remember was the block they have administratively in Vultr's infrastructure for outbound mail. They may ask you a few details about what you're planning to do with the server and how much traffic you expect [they asked me], so just be prepared for that. :)

[@lphoogenboom]

New look looks good man. I'd say keep it like this.

[@chunkmeister88]

Comments from following this tutorial on May 22, 2022 (05/22/2022) using a vultr server: Some ufw commands were needed to open up the ports and get everything working. If you're having trouble accessing your website (17:51) or logging in with thunderbird (33:36), try running the following commands: access website: ufw allow 'Nginx Full' - this opens up ports 80 and 443 connect email client: ufw allow SMTP - this opens up port 25 (outgoing mail from server)*** ufw allow IMAPS - this opens up port 993 (retrieve mail from server) ufw allow "Mail submission" - this opens up port 587 (submit mail from client to be sent by server) *** This has been mentioned in other comments, but outgoing emails will not work until vultr unblocks port 25. You'll need to submit a support ticket to get this done.

It's important to know (idk if Luke said it or not). That Vultr and almost every VPS blocking port 25, so you can't send emails, but still can receive it. To open port 25 in Vultr you need to open support ticket, describe for what purposes do you need opened 25 port and then you need to wait at least 30 days, then you will get your 25 port. Please note that!

This is awesome, but what holds me back from making my own mail server is the maintenance. I can follow this tutorial well enough, but when something goes wrong a couple years down the road, I'll be high and dry with no email. I'd really appreciate videos about what maintaining a mail server is like and how to diagnose the problem when something goes wrong. Also, a question: both the Vultr account and the certbot wizard require an email address. I would want to use my personal mail server as my primary (and, if possible, only) email, so can I use it for Vultr, Epik, and certbot? It seems like there might be a problem with using an email account as the credential for the hosting service which is hosting that same email account. If not, it seems like I need a second email account. What would be the best option for this?
