I think it is already possible to run a relay with IP only, without any domain at all! not sure if this is officially documented yet because is in the works, better go ask here: https://github.com/chatmail/relay

ArcaneChat 2.49.0 released!

4w ago

I have a question for the #DeltaChat crowd: What if someone has a quick access to one of my devices, let's say I forget to lock my phone or laptop and an attacker adds their phone as a secondary

adbenitez @lemmy.ml 4w ago

hi, with the laptop it is easier to exploit, but in the case of phones it is not so easy: the pin/lock is asked when someone tries to add a second device or create a backup so they can't just snap your profile there

besides that, to completely block access to certain apps, not only ArcaneChat/DeltaChat, android has a feature called "Private space" where you can protect with your lock/pin apps from being opened or even visible at all

in case it was in a laptop where it is much easier to steal since even if you could show an unavoidable warning about the profile transfer as discussed at https://support.delta.chat/t/dont-allow-to-delete-device-messages-chat-and-some-of-its-messages/4693 also the program data folder could be just copied, this is a problem of the low security of desktop systems, better never let anyone use your laptop in the same session as your personal session, you could have a guess session/user for such situations

if the worse happened and you suspect someone took your profile (which you would notice because some messages you didn't read are not notified and appear as already read), there is no safe way out of it, since your identity lives in your pockets in your devices (the encryption identity) and not in a server, if someone gets it the only safe way out is to create a new profile and tell everyone to block the older contact and remove the old contact from all groups etc

the file likely have .webp extension in your device, but extensions are meaningless, you can rename any file to .webp but that doesn't make it a webp, the file was named with .webp extension but in reality it was an animated png, when you uploaded it here probably this site figured out the mime-type and changed the extension of the uploaded file accordingly 😁

that is not webp, it is animated png which is not supported at the moment, animated webp is supported, you can convert the animated png to animated webp online, it actually even makes them much smaller

there is a basic client for the command line: https://github.com/ArcaneChat/arcanechat-tui/ but just using Delta Chat in other platforms is better, ArcaneChat is a chatmail client and it is compatible/interoperable with any chatmail client: https://chatmail.at/clients

How does ArcaneChat decide if a chat should be shown?

adbenitez @lemmy.ml 5mo ago

hi, normally all email should appear in ArcaneChat, if it doesn't is because you already "pressed some buttons" check the "show classic email" option in advanced settings and change it back to "all"

some of these options together with the inbox/DeltaChat folder are going to be removed in future versions to simplify more things and avoid problems like what you are experiencing
