eosis··on Show HN: I wrote an email app that accepts only one sender per inbox
Very cool.

I've used fastmail similarly for ages. An issue I have found is services that are really hung up on your email being your id, with annoying coupling like assuming you can only access a meeting if the email invite is the same "user" as the VC you're using...

eosis··on Sometimes Kill -9 Isn't Enough
You have to be careful using iptables dropping rules on the OUTPUT tables, as this manifests itself ( at least on our systems ) as failed send socket calls (which are often retried by the application), rather than true packetloss. Netem tends to work as expected.
