How do you manage/archive your growing stack of mails? Looking or a unified mailbox.
I have used Roundcube docker-compose-fpm.yaml, which looks like it can be easily extended with docker-mailserver
- Is building a simple SMTP (email) server that difficult?
-
For those using one, how would you rate the difficulty of setting up a self-hosted e-mail server?
However... For a live fire, in production setup I would push people to use a meta package like docker-mailserver, mailcow, mail-in-a-box or modoboa as it's better to have someone else set the sane defaults to prevent you from missing that one line in you config.

Server Mail: conviene oggi?
Se proprio vuoi farlo per il gusto di riprendere familiarità con i vari concetti, giocherei con dei set di container docker tipo https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver (su GitHub ne trovi molti altri, alcuni tipo mailcow anche con GUI per gestire il grosso delle opzioni).

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).

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

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.
