docs: Update metadata and links to new locations Also removed the FAQ inline heading link for Rancher. It's not a relevant link (as the question already expects knowledge of Rancher), and breaks out of the bg colour heading style due to the HTML generation logic from mkdocs.

## Building a Simple Mailserver
!!! warning
Adding the docker network's gateway to the list of trusted hosts, e.g. using the `network` or `connected-networks` option, can create an [**open relay**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_mail_relay), for instance [if IPv6 is enabled on the host machine but not in Docker][github-issue-1405-comment].
added warning message for PERMIT_DOCKER=network when using IPv6 (#1405)

- [`mailserver.env` file][github-file-dotenv]
Make sure to set the proper `domainname` that you will use for the emails. We forward only SMTP ports (not POP3 and IMAP) because we are not interested in accessing the mailserver directly (from a client). We also use these settings:
- `PERMIT_DOCKER=network` because we want to send emails from other docker containers.
- `SSL_TYPE=letsencrypt` because we will manage SSL certificates with letsencrypt.
- We need to open ports `25`, `587` and `465` on the firewall:
```sh
ufw allow 25
ufw allow 587
ufw allow 465
```
On your server you may have to do it differently.

- Get an SSL certificate from letsencrypt. I use [wsproxy](https://gitlab.com/docker-scripts/wsproxy) for managing SSL letsencrypt certificates of my domains:
docs(refactor): Large refactor + additions + fixes Consistency pass, formatting cleanup and fixes, introduce admonitions, add front-matter. --- docs: Add front-matter --- docs: Fix and format links - Some links were invalid (eg files moved or renamed) - Some were valid but had invalid section headers (content removed or migrated) - Some use `http://` instead of `https://` when the website supports a secure connection. - Some already used the `[name][reference]` convention but often with a number that wasn't as useful for maintenance. - All referenced docs needed URLs replaced. Opted for the `[name][reference]` approach to group them all clearly at the bottom of the doc, especially with the relative URLs and in some cases many duplicate entries. - All `tomav` references from the original repo prior to switch to an organization have been corrected. - Minor cosmetic changes to the `name` part of the URL, such as for referencing issues to be consistent. - Some small changes to text body, usually due to duplicate URL reference that was unnecessary (open relay, youtous) - Switched other links to use the `[name][reference]` format when there was a large group of URLs such as wikipedia or kubernetes. Github repos that reference projects related to `docker-mailserver` also got placed here so they're noticed better by maintainers. This also helped quite a bit with `mermaid` external links that are very long. - There was a Github Wiki supported syntax in use `[[name | link]]` for `fetchmail` page that isn't compatible by default with MkDocs (needs a plugin), converted to `[name][reference]` instead since it's a relative link. --- docs: Update commit link for LDAP override script Logic moved to another file, keeping the permalink commit reference so it's unaffected by any changes in the file referenced in future. --- docs: Heading corrections Consistency pass. Helps with the Table of Contents (top-right UI) aka Document Outline. docs: codefence cleanup --- docs: misc cleanup --- docs: Add Admonitions Switches `<details>` usage for collapsible admonitions (`???`) while other text content is switched to the visually more distinct admoniton (`!!!` or `???+`) style. This does affect editor syntax highlighting a bit and markdown linting as it's custom non-standard markdown syntax.

```sh
cd /var/ds/wsproxy
ds domains-add mail mail.example.org
ds get-ssl-cert myemail@gmail.com mail.example.org --test
ds get-ssl-cert myemail@gmail.com mail.example.org
```
Now the certificates will be available on `/var/ds/wsproxy/letsencrypt/live/mail.example.org`.

Aliases make sure that any email that comes to these accounts is forwarded to my real email address, so that I don't need to use POP3/IMAP in order to get these messages. Also no anti-spam and anti-virus software is needed, making the mailserver lighter.

- Send some test emails to these addresses and make other tests. Then stop the container with `ctrl+c` and start it again as a daemon: `docker-compose up -d mail`.
- Now save on Moodle configuration the SMTP settings and test by trying to send some messages to other users:
- **SMTP hosts**: `mail.example.org:465`
- **SMTP security**: `SSL`
- **SMTP username**: `info@example.org`
- **SMTP password**: `passwd123`
