Ending Support for Expiration Notification Emails
letsencrypt.org
Since its inception, Let’s Encrypt has been sending expiration notification emails to subscribers that have provided an email address to us. We will be ending this service on June 4, 2025. The decision to end this service is the result of the following factors: Over the past 10 years more and more of our subscribers have been able to put reliable automation into place for certificate renewal. Providing expiration notification emails means that we have to retain millions of email addresses connected to issuance records.

I think it’s a good idea, everyone should be automating this anyway.

    PSA: If you use Cloudflare to proxy, you can get a free decade long certificate and not worry about it for awhile.

      Oh, look: the NSA dangling a carrot on a line.

        Hey, if you wanna put your home server out there so the first person who gets pissy at you can DDoS you off the net until your ISP decides to cancel your service, that’s a perfectly acceptable decision to make for yourself.
