Re: "My misfin server is up now! I don't have a client written..."
@skyjake I think I was getting a hostname error in lagrange itself when I had more than DNS record. Could be worth testing in the future, but for now I'll just keep this single domain misfin client cert. I believe my message got to you and another to @satch!
Edit: Actually, thinking about it, it was probably the server. Ah well, the cert is gone, so time to make another one... that means both of yall would need to clear my cert fingerprint. Yeah... it would be good to come up with a recommendation for handling changed client certs... especially considering new folks who do dogfooding might mess up their misfin client cert initially compared to a gemini server cert.

@skyjake @satch Okay, I set up the new cert. Sorry to make yall have to delete things so much! Also @skyjake, I think the Misfin B is specifying that the total request size is within 2048 bytes, not just the message. Looks like I have quite a bit to do a writeup on... hopefully I'll have something published within a week. Just gotta download specific text resources and gather my thoughts.
@skyjake considering when I write a message in lagrange 1.18 and have dealt with failed messages (as have you trying to send me message) and we still get a copy of our own message, I have 2 recommendations.

@vi I've cleared your fingerprint on my server.
Misfin B is specifying that the total request size is within 2048 bytes
You are correct of course, and that's how the code is implemented. Not sure what I was thinking there...
Have the copy sent to your own mailbox AFTER the original is sent
Makes sense, yes, considering the delivery error situation. I was also planning to add a toggle whether to CC self or not, although I would imagine most people would want a record of what they sent because Lagrange doesn't keep a copy itself.
My misfin server is up now! I don't have a client written yet though. I wrote the server from scratch, so it might be buggy or possibly crash. It should accept Misfin B and C messages. The server (along with my gemini capsule) might be down in a few days due to physical infrastructure maintanance, but it is currently up and should be for at least the next 24 hours unless it crashes. If it stays up today, the following link is my misfin address. misfin://vi@vigrey.com misfin address - vi@...
