I have conquered today's mission of getting #LittleFedi to send email notifications. Took another 3 hours and I couldn't possibly document the process or hope to reproduce it in a clean environment but still.

@andyc Completely expunged all traces of msmtp, the LittleFedi configuration, the associated systemd services and the Google apps password.

I was incredibly frustrated and irritated at how complex and time consuming this seemingly simple task was. Although it finally happens to 'work', I am very uncomfortable as I don't understand it at all so I don't want any of these processes running on my little public facing server.

Hopefully, as the software and (excellent) documentation matures, simple, easy to follow, idiot proof tutorials will emerge.
