title: "About ~vern's Email service"
---
---
All ~vern users get an email address along with their account.
## Webmail
We host several email web clients you can use, We have our [Roundcube server](https://wm.vern.cc/) and the [Modoboa webclient](https://mail.vern.cc)
The username field is where you put your full email address (e.g. `<YOUR-USERNAME>@vern.cc`).
### Message Filters
There is no limit on the number of folders and filters you can create. To create filters you can go to [this settings page](https://mail.vern.cc/sfilters/#test/) (Go to Modoboa webclient, click on your email on the top right corner, then click Message Filters)
You can create filters to categorize incoming emails automatically.
## Identities
An identity is simply a fancy word for changing the From field of an email. To create identities, you can go to [this settings page](https://wm.vern.cc/?_task=settings&_action=identities) (Go to Roundcube, click on Settings and then Identities.)
From here you can create a new identity. You can create an unlimited number of identities.
## SMTP/IMAP
You can also use SMTP and IMAP-compatible clients like Thunderbird.
To use these clients, use the below options:
* SMTP: STARTTLS on mail.vern.cc:587
* IMAP: SSL/TLS on mail.vern.cc:993
If it asks you for a password type, then just use "Normal password" otherwise it won't work!
## POP3
You can use POP3-compatible clients with ~vern mail.
To use them, use the below options:
* STARTTLS on mail.vern.cc:110
Port 995 does not work, any connections there will time-out!
Some email clients such as gmail's web client do not support STARTTLS on POP3, you should use a different client, ideally one that is [free software](https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html) for your own privacy's sake! (You created a ~vern email to get away from privacy-invasive services, no?)

title: "About ~vern's Mastodon Instance"
---
---
Mastodon is a social-networking app that uses ActivityPub to communicate. In short, you can talk to people on other websites as if they are on your own! Because it is all one, federated universe! The Fediverse!
~vern hosts Mastodon which is available at [fedi.vern.cc](https://fedi.vern.cc), ~vern also hosts [Akkoma]() which is available at [ak.vern.cc](https://ak.vern.cc)
## Frontends
The default Mastodon frontend is very heavy on JavaScript, CSS and HTML. It's better to use the BloatFE frontend which works nicely. The BloatFE frontend is available over at [bloat.vern.cc](https://bloat.vern.cc)
*Note: You will be asked to login with your Mastodon account and to give BloatFE access to everything. This is completely normal and is what is supposed to happen. Click Allow.*
## Rules
As with any Fediverse instance, the fedi.vern.cc instance has rules that all users must follow.
* Don't harass any person
* Don't share pirated content
* Don't try to disrupt the services of ~vern
* Make sure all of your NSFW or lewd or political content has a content warning!
* Don't upload pornographic material.
* Don't promote racism, violence or bigotry of any kind.
* Don't do anything that is illegal under US or Canadian law.
## Blocked instances
Not all instances on the Fediverse are great, some are particularly awful. Lots of free-speech havens eventually become cesspools with illegal content that we have to block. We block instances that go against our rules.
A list of blocked servers can be found [here](https://fedi.vern.cc/about/more#unavailable-content), you cannot send anything to these servers nor can they receive anything you send. And though it looks like a lot, there is still a large network of nice people remaining.
