Email in minecraft!

To get started you need at least 3 advanced computers on the same network (you could also use 2 computers with multishell.run -- 1 for client and 1 for server).

First setup the central auth server by running the following:

wget run https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GabrielleAkers/cc-email/refs/heads/main/install.lua
auth/auth_server

then setup the email server

wget run https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GabrielleAkers/cc-email/refs/heads/main/install.lua
email/email_server

then any clients can run

wget run https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GabrielleAkers/cc-email/refs/heads/main/install.lua
email/email_client

and send/receive emails with ease.

When you're first prompted to login that will create an account, and then to send emails you should use the person's username without the domain in the "To" field.

The system is event driven so there shouldn't be lots of rednet spam, and the default domain is @tuah since that's what my server uses, but you can configure that in the auth_shared and email_shared files on clients and hosts.

It auto fetches the latest changes from github so if you do modify the domain you'll need to redo that config every time it updates.

There's still some work to do like adding a way to get a list of existing email addresses and adding a gui option to configure the domain, but otherwise it works fine.
