Travel Router VPN to Securely Access Your Home Network

Want to access your home network securely while traveling? I set up a travel router with a VPN that routes all traffic back home, so I can safely reach my home servers and devices from anywhere.

How do you handle remote access while on the road? Any tips or improvements?

Send Emails from Raspberry Pi After Google Disabled App Passwords (msmtp + OAuth2)

I wrote a step-by-step guide on sending email from a Raspberry Pi using msmtp + Gmail OAuth2 (no app passwords).

Covers:

Setting up msmtp on Raspberry Pi
Configuring Gmail OAuth2
Generating and using access tokens
Sending test emails from scripts

The goal was to enable a Raspberry Pi to send automated emails through Gmail despite Google blocking “less secure apps,” by using msmtp with OAuth 2.0 so that scripts, alerts, and notifications continue to work securely without relying on app passwords.

Full guide (with configs + commands):

Would appreciate any feedback or improvements—especially if you’ve done this differently (e.g. other mail setups, providers, or better token handling).
