Hi all,

The subject says it all, I guess.

I'm sure some of us would like to properly *send* from our
@sourcemage.org email address, not only receive to it. I suppose it's
not a big deal to set up a simple SMTP-auth with correct SPF and DKIM?
Some of our devs asked me about it recently.

Additionally, this would level down our "spam" status a lot. Because
we're like in 2000 in what is related to email.

I also plan to write the small service which would generate a picture
with an email address accepting, let's say, base64 value of it for
input for GET request.

Then we can use it on our developers[0] page to not publish raw
addresses for happy spam-bots.

Too bad those addresses were published long ago and already receive a
ton of spam. Several solutions to avoid that would be:

1. Change email domain to something else like @sourcemage.guru or
register a new one -- @smgl-email.org, @sourcemage-mail.org,
@sourcemage.email, @sourcemage.mx, etc. -- depends on your fantasy :-)

2. Change email parts. The hard way. Maybe using full real names might
work here, i.e. vlad.glagolev at official-smgl-domain dot org, but parts
like grimoire@, sorcery@, iso@ and so on have already been blacklisted
:-(

And make sure posting commit-data/emails will not publish them in raw
format on the Web.
