Mailu VS emailwiz

Consider installing Mailu instead, which is a single Docker container with a full mail server and Roundcube on top. Very easy to install.

I've been using Mailu (https://mailu.io/) for years and have had no problems. I love that it has the concept of domain admins so that people can manage mailboxes for their own domains. DNS isn't automatic, but meh. Upgrading is easy (Docker + automatic migrations).

Mailu is pretty solid for personal use and is lighter on memory than Mailcow

While hosting mail isn't easy, Mailu and similar projects make it way easier than it used to be.

Mailu. It’s a docker image that has the whole email system pretty much all done for you. If you don’t know docker, learn it it’s well worth it.

So as the title says, I'm trying to set up a dockerized mailu server. I've done the docker compose setup from the mailu.io site, except it doesn't seem to work and I'm not exactly sure why. I'm guessing I'm just not entering in some information correctly, but I don't know for sure. One thing I know I'm not sure on is the db url and what exactly is it supposed to be. I don't remember the exact error I'm getting, as I'm not in front of my computer at the moment, but I do know it was the admin container that wasn't working properly. Either that or I don't have my DNS set up correctly.

I am running a set of SBCs, but I read that it is better to use one server [1]. I suppose one could go with a VM, or portainer, or Yacht, or some other software to visualize everything.

Right now I am using a set or solutions:

* email * [2]

* files * using NextCloud

* blog * using Hugo

* news * using my own RSS reader

* pihole * to filter things

What I consider to use in the future

* pictures * using photoprism

* citadel * I found some sort of suites like citadel. Not sure if that works, if it is good, or if it fits my needs at all [3]. At the first glance seems like a fun project.

All in all it is time consuming to setup up, and update regularly.

Script

Host your own

I have never got my IP on blacklist and my emails are always getting delivered. There is always more work to put on security and make sure everything is secure, you will always have someone who is trying to brute-force and so on but there is tools like fail2ban and so on, but start with some basics setup, here is one link to scripts that can do 90% of the work this guy has a tutorial on youtube https://github.com/LukeSmithxyz/emailwiz

I have my own email server I used emailwiz to set it up. I also used dynadot for a domain name registrar. I switch from epik to dynadot but when I send an email I get this error in postfix
