<h1>Kubernetes</h1>
<h2 id="introduction"><a class="toclink" href="#introduction">Introduction</a></h2>
<p>This article describes how to deploy DMS to Kubernetes. Please note that there is also a <a href="https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver-helm">Helm chart</a> available.</p>
<div class="admonition attention">
<p class="admonition-title">Requirements</p>
<p>We assume basic knowledge about Kubernetes from the reader. Moreover, we assume the reader to have a basic understanding of mail servers. Ideally, the reader has deployed DMS before in an easier setup with Docker (Compose).</p>

<p>We want to provide the basic configuration in the form of environment variables with a <code>ConfigMap</code>. Note that this is just an example configuration; tune the <code>ConfigMap</code> to your needs.</p>

<p>We can also make use of user-provided configuration files, e.g. <code>user-patches.sh</code>, <code>postfix-accounts.cf</code> and more, to adjust DMS to our likings. We encourage you to have a look at <a href="https://kustomize.io/">Kustomize</a> for creating <code>ConfigMap</code>s from multiple files, but for now, we will provide a simple, hand-written example. This example is absolutely minimal and only goes to show what can be done.</p>

<h3 id="service"><a class="toclink" href="#service">Service</a></h3>
<p>A <code>Service</code> is required for getting the traffic to the pod itself. The service is somewhat crucial. Its configuration determines whether the original IP from the sender will be kept. <a href="#exposing-your-mail-server-to-the-outside-world">More about this further down below</a>.</p>
<p>The configuration you're seeing does keep the original IP, but you will not be able to scale this way. We have chosen to go this route in this case because we think most Kubernetes users will only want to have one instance.</p>

<h2 id="exposing-your-mail-server-to-the-outside-world"><a class="toclink" href="#exposing-your-mail-server-to-the-outside-world">Exposing your Mail Server to the Outside World</a></h2>
<p>The more difficult part with Kubernetes is to expose a deployed DMS to the outside world. Kubernetes provides multiple ways for doing that; each has downsides and complexity. The major problem with exposing DMS to outside world in Kubernetes is to <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/services/source-ip">preserve the real client IP</a>. The real client IP is required by DMS for performing IP-based SPF checks and spam checks. If you do not require SPF checks for incoming mails, you may disable them in your <a href="../override-defaults/postfix/">Postfix configuration</a> by dropping the line that states: <code>check_policy_service unix:private/policyd-spf</code>.</p>
<p>The easiest approach was covered above, using <code class="highlight"><span class="nt">externalTrafficPolicy</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="l l-Scalar l-Scalar-Plain">Local</span></code>, which disables the service proxy, but makes the service local as well (which does not scale). This approach only works when you are given the correct (that is, a public and routable) IP address by a load balancer (like MetalLB). In this sense, the approach above is similar to the next example below. We want to provide you with a few alternatives too. <strong>But</strong> we also want to communicate the idea of another simple method: you could use a load-balancer without an external IP and DNAT the network traffic to the mail server. After all, this does not interfere with SPF checks because it keeps the origin IP address. If no dedicated external IP address is available, you could try the latter approach, if one is available, use the former.</p>
<h3 id="external-ips-service"><a class="toclink" href="#external-ips-service">External IPs Service</a></h3>
<p>The simplest way is to expose DMS as a <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service">Service</a> with <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#external-ips">external IPs</a>. This is very similar to the approach taken above. Here, an external IP is given to the service directly by you. With the approach above, you tell your load-balancer to do this.</p>
