Roundcube and docker-mailserver (Docker Mailserver) on the same VPS
Consider installing Mailu instead, which is a single Docker container with a full mail server and Roundcube on top. Very easy to install.

Mail-in-a-Box: a mail server in a box
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).

How to create my own SMTP Server with my own domain?
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.

Trying to set up mailu docker
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.

[advice needed] - Selfhosted Mail Server
If you have a better solution, for example a good provider who offer agency packages which allows many domains and there is no catch, for example very small disk space, then hit me right away. Otherwise, please share your experience with hosting your own mail service. I found https://mailinabox.email/ and https://www.iredmail.org/ for example, but never had any experience with neither of them.

Email server management on linux
Last suggestion is to use iredmail and maybe iredadmin-pro (paid) for mailbox servers. It's a roll-your-own solution but so long as you are very detail oriented, strict with policies, use change management, and use something like ansible, it can really help this email stack scale. Also would help with #4.
