Heh, that made me realize that the trademark of the system we're currently using, which is abbreviated into four letters, should have the first three in the opposite order.

There's a lot of context that I cannot share without making it a two week course in what I do for a living, but to put it simply, both versatility and modularity are descriptors that make sense together for the intended audience, as the system can be one without the other. Plus versatile refers to the software, and modular refers to the hardware.
Pumpkin doesn't make sense either, so I just assume it's one of those cutesy nicknames. Either that, or maybe they just like Dwight Schrute. A lot.
Pure destilled happiness. Plus she got the news delivered by Jeremy Renner. What a day!
I tend to agree with you. Plus, with this particular thing, it's possible to build it to be modular and not versatile, or the other way around. Or neither, which we're using now.

Some surface-level info while I'm waiting for my kids to finish the evening ritual: No need for an extra IP or VPS. You can host them all on the same IP and machine, provided there aren't any conflicting port assignments.
In the DNS server, you can enter the various subdomains as CNAME pointing to the A record. The server-software is configured with which hostname it should operate as (For example, HTTP/1.1 has a Host-specification in the initial request, so that one server can host multiple domains on the same IP)
It should be noted that mail servers are indicated by an MX-record. And mailservers should also have a TXT record (SPF record) as part of spam prevention - some SMTP servers query this to ensure that your e-mail actually comes from you and not from someone spoofing the domain.
I used to have a zone file that did roughly what you're trying to do, bit sadly I don't have it anymore. But as you have DNS up and running, I'm sure you'll be able to figure out the rest through checking some examples.
I half-baked an example zone file for you. I haven't tested it, though. It assumes the domain of blargh.com being hosted from an IP of 123.123.123.123:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA ns1.blargh.com. admin.blargh.com. (
2024102102 ; Serial (incremented)
3600 ; Refresh
1800 ; Retry
1209600 ; Expire
86400 ; Minimum TTL
)
; Name servers
@ IN NS ns1.blargh.com.
@ IN NS ns2.blargh.com.
; A Records
@ IN A 123.123.123.123
ns1 IN A 123.123.123.123
ns2 IN A 123.123.123.123
; CNAME Records
mail IN CNAME blargh.com.
mastodon IN CNAME blargh.com.
matrix IN CNAME blargh.com.
; MX Records
@ IN MX 10 mail.blargh.com.
; TXT/SPF Record
@ IN TXT "v=spf1 mx ~all"
Oh, and some tips:
- Do not enable SMTP-relay on your SMTP server. This opens you up to abuse, and you (probably) don't need it.
- Your DNS server should only talk to strangers about queries about your domain. Otherwise you might be part of a DNS amplification attack.
- I have a personal preference for imap.blargh.com or pop3.blargh.com, combined with smtp.blargh.com, as it makes it easier to deduct the protocol, if you're not supporting imap and pop3. I don't think anyone else but me care, though.
Just guessing here, but either:
a) Cosplaying as KKK to intimidate black people. Pretty low quality costume, so I doubt it.
b) Cosplaying as ghosts to intimidate ~~black~~ people. Who you gonna call?
c) Dressing in white to not heat up as much in direct sunlight. Considering the sunglasses, it wouldn't surprise me if this is the reason. I've never been to Georgia, but I hear it's pretty hot.
My brother in law is like that. He's been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and his drivers license has been suspended after an unrelated episode 10 years ago. He's harmless, and perfectly capable of getting it unsuspended if he puts in some effort, but he can't because:
- His doctor is out to sabotage his life
- Someone is tapping into his phone
- This lady on the other side of town is stealing his mail
- His PC had been bugged
....allegedly.
He sometimes takes his meds, but it's rare. Those are the days when he's out and about and reasonably normal.
The occasion is significant enough for me to figure out how to use emojis: 🥳
Don't forget to eat and sleep, fellow engineers. Have fun, and try to stay in touch with your wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend, as well as any kids and pets you are responsible for feeding!

I can sort out the blue aspect through cheap spray paint, but I need to do some research on making a 19" rack round...
