Depends on which scale you're working and what's the result that you're 
expecting.

Nothing wrong on promoting Free Software.
IMHO is wrong to say that we need the freedom box to do that. Maybe the 
freedom box will ease the things for many people, but my point is that 
there's plenty of Free Software to set up a personal mail server and the 
freedom box is definetly not the only way to do it effectively.

I was objecting the "we need this to do that" statement that in my point 
of view is quite false (I admit that maybe I've been a little too rude 
in my reply).

> Congratulation to you being free without FreedomBox.

Congratulation for your sarcasm.

But the fact remains: you can be free even without the freedom box.
It could be useful, specially for many people scared off by multiple 
configuration files and by the command line, but it's not the only way.

Nobody spoke of non-free software.
Anyway it's strange to be promted to use non-free software on this list ;-)
