Announcement: SMTP Server in Rust with DMARC, DANE, MTA-STS, Sieve, OTEL support
PEM issues for the TLS certificate or DKIM signature? In any case feel free to describe the problem in the discussions page and I'll check it out.
I am happy to announce Stalwart SMTP, a modern SMTP server developed in Rust with a focus on security, speed, and extensive configurability. It features built-in DMARC, DKIM, SPF and ARC support for message authentication, strong transport security through DANE, MTA-STS and SMTP TLS reporting, and offers great flexibility and customization thanks to its dynamic configuration rules and native support for Sieve scripts. The project has been recently awarded a grant from NLNet and the European Commission's Next Generation Internet program to develop a mail server in Rust. The next step in the roadmap is to refactor the code base of the previously released Stalwart JMAP/IMAP servers and to create an integrated mail server solution that is simple to install and manage. Any comments or suggestions are more than welcome!

PS: I hope that we selfhosters will have a modern, efficient, easy to use mail suite one day with modern features like JMAP, good self-learning spam integration, automated checks and validations for SPF/DMARC/DKIM or whether the IP/host suddenly appears in a blocklist and integrated encryption at rest for emails. Something that isn't 30 services in a container image, with 30 different configuration styles. Maybe even with an API integrated that's compatible to the ProtonMail frontend (like the neutron server once intended to be). Anyway, I'm sorry for dreaming. ;)

Has anyone tried to self-host the Proton stack as a redundancy?
A bit related: there was a FOSS backend once but I don't think anyone wants to push further.
-
What kind of open source self-hosted solution is needed in your industry?
Some folks once started neutron which is an email server that can be used with the FOSS Protonmail web client but it was abandoned. And I guess you'd want to support JMAP in addition to IMAP as well apart from having automated encryption of incoming plain-text emails.
-
Self-hosted end-to-end encrypted email service?
Anyway, to the topic: there was once neutron which is a server that aimed at ProtonMail compatibility. So that'd would simply would be able to use the same open source frontend from ProtonMail. However, this was abandoned. So you, or somebody else, could revive it.

Self-hosted email server on VPS instances - how do you guys encrypt your stuff to avoid email contents being scanned by your VPS vendors?
Some folks also started implementing an FOSS ProtonMail but this project was abandoned at some point. But maybe someone will fork and revive it one day.
-
What's the biggest missing piece of the puzzle in the self-hosted universe?
Two devs once started implementing a free ProtonMail server but they abandoned it. It's understandable, since it's a lot of work.

Writing an open source mail server from scratch: what are the most import features for a self-hosted mail server?
Some folks once started a free implementation of the Protonmail backend in Go. Maybe you want to revive it?

Am I crazy or is it completely fucking insane to use a hosted email provider?
Some folks also started an open source Protonmail backend but this was abandoned at one point.
