It's about time!

In addition to documenting how it's set up, I'm also adding some basic usage instructions.

That sounds like a super confusing name that does not say what it is for at all.

Yeah agreed, suggestions welcome, perhaps "Nix Freescout" or "Shared Nix Inboxes" or "Nix Email" 🤔

Note that we can only configure the "Official Nix" part

"NixOS Shared Mailbox Service" is what comes to mind. Not sure why "Nix" over "NixOS", when the latter is the foundation and domain name.

Done (I'd love to rename more things from NixOS -> Nix, but let's keep it at NixOS for now)

Worked through this, LGTM, thank you!

(except the "Official Nix" name, that part was a bit confusing when I received the email - I agree with choosing a better name here!)
