Schleuder is an email list manager that is designed to be robust, secure, and privacy-conscious. It is a tool mainly used by activists, journalists, and other groups who value privacy and security. Schleuder is easy to use and can be installed on various platforms. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Schleuder on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before we begin, you will need the following:
As with any installation on a Unix system, we need to update our package list and upgrade the existing packages to the latest version.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Now that our system is up-to-date, we can proceed with the Schleuder installation by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install Schleuder
Once Schleuder is installed, we need to configure it. First, we need to create a database for Schleuder. We can do this by running the following command:
sudo sqlite3 /var/lib/schleuder/schleuder.sqlite3
Then, we need to add the following line to the configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/schleuder/schleuder.conf
database_url = "sqlite:/var/lib/schleuder/schleuder.sqlite3"
Next, we need to create a key for Schleuder. We can do this by running the following command as the Schleuder user:
sudo -u schleuder gpg --gen-key
We also need to add the email address that Schleuder will be using to send emails. We can do this by adding the following line to the configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/schleuder/schleuder.conf
sender_address = "schleuder@example.com"
Finally, restart Schleuder to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart schleuder
Now that Schleuder is installed and configured, we can create a new mailing list. We can do this by running the following command:
sudo -u schleuder schleuder create my-list@example.com
Replace my-list@example.com with the actual name of the mailing list. The command will prompt you to enter the list's email address and a brief description.
You have successfully installed and configured Schleuder on your Ubuntu Server Latest. You can now create new mailing lists and start using Schleuder to manage your emails.
