tiki.org mail server

The Tiki association manages a subscription to a mail server for @tiki.org emails.

This is for volunteers that are active in the Tiki community, and that need an official email address. This is not designed as a general purpose mailbox. Our goal is to maintain the minimum necessary number of accounts, and host the minimum quantity of emails.

Sammy manages the service, so please contact him for day to day uses (password reset, forwarding, etc.). Sammy. His email is sammyndabo on this domain or you can find him on the Tiki community chat room: https://gitter.im/tiki-org/community

Email redirects/forwarding

About email redirects (ex.: abc at tiki.org redirecting/forwarding to abc at example.org). More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_forwarding

A difference:
redirect: no copy of the email is kept
forward: a copy of the email is kept.

Email redirects are problematic in general. Ex.: Risk of spam amplification, some services require a reply from a specific account, dealing with bounces.

As of 2024-08, our email provider doesn't support redirects. And we do not plan to change our email provider. Thus, we have to create a full email account, and add forwards (and destination email needs to click to confirm)

@tikiwiki.org emails

  • @tikiwiki.org emails have been discontinued, so we only maintain @tiki.org
    • This was used by just a few accounts and was mostly receiving spam
    • If you used in the past and need access to it temporarily (ex.: to reset a password on an old account using this email), just ask Sammy
