# Mail
A bunch of stuff still use mail unfortunately.
Below are the deets on how to point Containers to the SMTP mailbox I set up, and how to send system mail.
## Container mail via SMTP
Use the following credentials:
```yml
host: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
port: 587
username: "pukekoxyz"
password: "pvefngmuhcxunzqs"
sender: pukekoxyz@yahoo.com
```
`takahe@pukeko.xyz` may also work as I've set up a relay - not tested.
`matan@pukeko.xyz` point to my ProtonMail address - similarly untested.
## System mail via `sendmail`
Gentoo mailing is... weird. Postfix works as is (see [here](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Postfix)), but `mailx` appears not to, sticking us with `sendmail`.
To send an acceptable (not pretty - acceptable) mail run:
`echo "Subject: [subject]" | sendmail -F "Takahe" -f "takahe@pukeko.xyz" -t matanhorovitz@protonmail.com <<< $([message-body])`
> Example: Tacocat!
`echo "Subject: tacocat" | sendmail -F "Takahe" -f "takahe@pukeko.xyz" -t matanhorovitz@protonmail.com <<< $(echo tacocat)`
{.is-info}
So long as it works, right?
## Nextcloud mail
Nextcloud requires STARTTLS on port 25 - see this example:
