astroid VS docker-mailserver

I could't get it to work https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid/issues/727

astroid is a good keyboard-driven mail client.

No idea why people are so focused on things being in the CLI. The CLI is great, but a GUI which feels as minimal and powerful as a CLI application is even better, in my eyes. I've been using mutt/neomutt for an eternity, for example, but I really should get around to trying Astroid or Dodo instead.

A few that are missing here, most pretty young but look promising: * Astroid : gui-frontend for notmuch * aerc (TUI) * meli (TUI) * lumail

notmuch with astroidmail for tagging, filtering, sorting, archiving and then searching.

I can recommend Docker mailserver (it also works with Podman). It is already pretty lightweight but you can even make it lighter and it has an active community as well as regular updates.

https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver https://docker-mailserver.github.io/docker-mailserver/latest/ https://www.programonaut.com/how-to-host-a-mail-server-with-docker-for-free-step-by-step/

Use https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver or mailcow . They both provide reasonable default setup for spam detection and even UI for adjusting settings.

" this docker based mail server looks pretty legit https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver "

Check https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver It has almost everything in a single docker image. Email is not the easiest to implement with container(s), but that project has managed it.

I set up docker-mailserver[0] Monday in ~6 hours, most of which were me trying to be fancy using podman instead of docker and dealing with SELinux. But then again I did choose it over mail-in-a-box for just that level of customization. Obviously I can't tell how reliable it will be in the long run yet, but since it's using the classic Postfix/Dovecot stack I expect it'll be pretty stable
