   then you possible are fine with zen3 or zen4 with dont have this bugs to be   
   solved in ucode

   does it say epyc in uname -a ? :)   
      
   there exists zenbleed tarball that have tools to test if something is missing   
   in ucode, i dont know if the ucode is part of kernel, but imho only 6.4.6 have   
   zenbleed fix, not currently older kernels   
      
   i still don't have any epyc cpu, so i am happy :=)

   gopher is not well designed for roundcube webmail, lol :)   
      
   i dont know if there exists webmail based on gopher protocol, i will let it be   
   upto the reader to find why it does not work   
      
   sadly dovecot have planed to support jmap, but so far only cyrus-imapd have   
   it, on the other hand cyrus-imapd miss support for weakforced, it complicated   
   for secureity, i could just make reject rules in iptables change to accept for   
   a limited ip ranges where i have users, it would be rock solid, firewalls   
   should be static rule set, not dynamic, and this is why i think fail2ban is   
   designed for the incorrect problem
