Filesystem is the database. This image is based on config files that can be persisted using Docker volumes, and as such versioned, backed up and so forth. Where are emails stored? Mails are stored in /var/mail/${domain}/${username} . Since v9.0.0 it is possible to add custom user_attributes for each accounts to have a different mailbox configuration (See #1792 ). Warning You should use a data volume container for /var/mail to persist data. Otherwise, your data may be lost. How to alter the running mailserver instance without relaunching the container? docker-mailserver aggregates multiple \"sub-services\", such as Postfix, Dovecot, Fail2ban, SpamAssasin, etc. In many cases, one may edit a sub-service's config and reload that very sub-service, without stopping and relaunching the whole mail server. In order to do so, you'll probably want to push your config updates to your server through a Docker volume, then restart the sub-service to apply your changes, using supervisorctl . For instance, after editing fail2ban's config: supervisorctl restart fail2ban . See supervisorctl's documentation . Tip To add, update or delete an email account; there is no need to restart postfix / dovecot service inside the container after using setup.sh script. For more information, see #1639 . How can I sync container with host date/time? Timezone? Share the host's /etc/
