I am thinking about buying a BeagleBoard because it seems to be FSF compliant
other than the GPU which requires nonfree blobs to work. That's not really a
problem for me because I think the CPU would be enough for what I want to use
it for.
Anyway, I am thinking about using a BeagleBoard as a personal mail server.
Assuming this is possible, i.e. use a BeagleBoard with a lightweight
GNU/Linux OS (probably use Trisquel without a graphical front end) (if it's
not, please let me know), what happens to emails I receive if the BeagleBoard
is switched off for a few minutes?
What I mean is, if I switch the BeagleBoard off for 1 hour, and people send
me emails during that 1 hour. Are those emails lost forever or will I end up
getting those emails when the BeagleBoard is switched on again?
