  1. Mail-in-a-Box

    Mail-in-a-Box helps individuals take back control of their email by defining a one-click, easy-to-deploy SMTP+everything else server: a mail server in a box.

  3. iRedMail

    Full-featured, open source mail server solution for mainstream Linux/BSD distributions.

  4. smtp

    Discontinued This is a SMTP docker container for sending emails. You can also relay emails to gmail and amazon SES. (by ix-ai)

    If all I needed was SMTP? I'd likely just use Amazon SES or Mailgun.

    I know some folks have concerns with the privacy of that(1), and really want to run their own SMTP. If that's the case, Mail In A Box can do the job, or you can go with a pure SMTP solution like https://github.com/ix-ai/smtp (not endorsing it -- it's just been on my radar) or a roll-your-own Postfix/Exim solution. The latter requires almost zero resources after it's set up; slap it on a $20/year VM and you're done.

    1. Chasing privacy with email is a chimera. If you really want private communications, email is not the tool.

  5. Mailu

    Insular email distribution - mail server as Docker images

    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).

  6. forwardemail.net

    Privacy-focused encrypted email for everyone. All-in-one alternative to Gmail + Mailchimp + Sendgrid.
