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.

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.

In this setup `docker-mailserver` is not intended to receive email externally, so no anti-spam or anti-virus software is needed, making the service lighter to run.

Adding the docker network's gateway to the list of trusted hosts (_eg: 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].
1. If you're running a version of `docker-mailserver` earlier than v10.2, [you'll need to get `setup.sh`][docs-setup-script]. Otherwise you can substitute `./setup.sh <command>` with `docker exec mailserver setup <command>`.

docs(chore): Normalize for consistency (#2206) "Brief" summary/overview of changes. See the PR discussion or individual commits from the PR for more details. --- Only applies to the `docs/content/**` content (_and `setup` command_). `target/` and `test/` can be normalized at a later date. * Normalize to `example.com` - Domains normalized to `example.com`: `mywebserver.com`, `myserver.tld`, `domain.com`, `domain.tld`, `mydomain.net`, `my-domain.tld`, `my-domain.com`, `example.org`, `whoami.com`. - Alternative domains normalized to `not-example.com`: `otherdomain.com`, `otherdomain.tld`, `domain2.tld`, `mybackupmx.com`, `whoareyou.org`. - Email addresses normalized to `admin@example.com` (in `ssl.md`): `foo@bar.com`, `yourcurrentemail@gmail.com`, `email@email.com`, `admin@domain.tld`. - Email addresses normalized to `external-account@gmail.com`: `bill@gates321boom.com`, `external@gmail.com`, `myemail@gmail.com`, `real-email-address@external-domain.com`. - **`faq.md`:** A FAQ entry title with `sample.domain.com` changed to `subdomain.example.com`. - **`mail-fetchmail.md`:** Config examples with FQDNs for `imap`/`pop3` used `example.com` domain for a third-party, changed to `gmail.com` as more familiar third-party/external MTA. * Normalize config volume path - Normalizing local config path references to `./docker-data/dms/config/`: `./config/`, `config/`, \``config`\`, `/etc/` (_volume mount src path prefix_). - Normalize DMS volume paths to `docker-data/dms/mail-{data,state,log}`: `./mail`, `./mail-state` `./data/mail`, `./data/state`, `./data/logs`, `./data/maildata`, `./data/mailstate`, `./data/maillogs`, (_dropped/converted data volumes: `maildata`, `mailstate`_). - Other docker images also adopt the `docker-data/{service name}/` prefix. * `ssl.md` - Use `dms/custom-certs` where appropriate. * Apply normalizations to README and example `docker-compose.yml` --- Common terms, sometimes interchangeably used or now invalid depending on context: `mail`, `mail container`, `mail server`, `mail-server`, `mailserver`,`docker-mailserver`, `Docker Mailserver`. Rough transformations applied to most matches (_conditionally, depending on context_): - 'Docker Mailserver' => '`docker-mailserver`' - 'mail container' => '`docker-mailserver`' (_optionally retaining ' container'_) - 'mail server' => 'mail-server' / '`docker-mailserver`' - 'mail-server' => '`docker-mailserver`' - 'mailserver' => 'mail-server' / '`docker-mailserver`' Additionally I checked `docker run` (_plus `exec`, `logs`, etc, sub-commands_) and `docker-compose` commands. Often finding usage of `mail` instead of the expected `mailserver` Additionally changes `mailserver` hostname in k8s to `mail` to align with other non-k8s examples. --- * drive-by revisions Mostly minor revisions or improvements to docs that aren't related to normalization effort.

I've rewritten it by restructuring the content, introducing numerical steps and revising some of the content, while removing third-party software that was unnecessary (the original authors and content related to their use-case, Moodle). See the PR for further details and reference links regarding the original documents history. The PR provides improved diff via separate commits scoping changes at the correct change bounds, unfortunately the full diff doesn't align to those boundaries well making it more difficult to review vs individual commits.

See the PR discussion or individual commits from the PR for more details. --- Only applies to the `docs/content/**` content (_and `setup` command_). `target/` and `test/` can be normalized at a later date. * Normalize to `example.com` - Domains normalized to `example.com`: `mywebserver.com`, `myserver.tld`, `domain.com`, `domain.tld`, `mydomain.net`, `my-domain.tld`, `my-domain.com`, `example.org`, `whoami.com`. - Alternative domains normalized to `not-example.com`: `otherdomain.com`, `otherdomain.tld`, `domain2.tld`, `mybackupmx.com`, `whoareyou.org`. - Email addresses normalized to `admin@example.com` (in `ssl.md`): `foo@bar.com`, `yourcurrentemail@gmail.com`, `email@email.com`, `admin@domain.tld`. - Email addresses normalized to `external-account@gmail.com`: `bill@gates321boom.com`, `external@gmail.com`, `myemail@gmail.com`, `real-email-address@external-domain.com`. - **`faq.md`:** A FAQ entry title with `sample.domain.com` changed to `subdomain.example.com`. - **`mail-fetchmail.md`:** Config examples with FQDNs for `imap`/`pop3` used `example.com` domain for a third-party, changed to `gmail.com` as more familiar third-party/external MTA. * Normalize config volume path - Normalizing local config path references to `./docker-data/dms/config/`: `./config/`, `config/`, \``config`\`, `/etc/` (_volume mount src path prefix_). - Normalize DMS volume paths to `docker-data/dms/mail-{data,state,log}`: `./mail`, `./mail-state` `./data/mail`, `./data/state`, `./data/logs`, `./data/maildata`, `./data/mailstate`, `./data/maillogs`, (_dropped/converted data volumes: `maildata`, `mailstate`_). - Other docker images also adopt the `docker-data/{service name}/` prefix. * `ssl.md` - Use `dms/custom-certs` where appropriate. * Apply normalizations to README and example `docker-compose.yml` --- Common terms, sometimes interchangeably used or now invalid depending on context: `mail`, `mail container`, `mail server`, `mail-server`, `mailserver`,`docker-mailserver`, `Docker Mailserver`. Rough transformations applied to most matches (_conditionally, depending on context_): - 'Docker Mailserver' => '`docker-mailserver`' - 'mail container' => '`docker-mailserver`' (_optionally retaining ' container'_) - 'mail server' => 'mail-server' / '`docker-mailserver`' - 'mail-server' => '`docker-mailserver`' - 'mailserver' => 'mail-server' / '`docker-mailserver`' Additionally I checked `docker run` (_plus `exec`, `logs`, etc, sub-commands_) and `docker-compose` commands. Often finding usage of `mail` instead of the expected `mailserver` Additionally changes `mailserver` hostname in k8s to `mail` to align with other non-k8s examples. --- * drive-by revisions Mostly minor revisions or improvements to docs that aren't related to normalization effort.

ci(docs): Fail when build aborts from broken links (#2266) Using `set -ex` will exit the script as soon as a non-zero exit code is returned, such as when the docker image fails building the docs due to `build --strict` catching broken links. This also removes the need for `|| exit` when changing directory. This seems fine for a small script, but AFAIK an alternative fix is just adding `|| exit` to the end of the `docker run` command too? There appears to be advice [against adopting `-e` carelessly](http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/105), while others [encourage `-e`](http://redsymbol.net/articles/unofficial-bash-strict-mode/). I know that several maintainers here have preference towards `set -e` so I've kept the original PR solution. Additionally: - `-x` is used to improve command visibility when reviewing the workflow log output. - `--name` isn't necessary, but was part of the original PR. - I've chosen not to include `-o pipefail`, only because no pipes are used in this script. * docs(fix): Fix broken links * ci(docs): Added inline docs Extra documentation context for maintainers to quickly grok what's going on. * chore(docs): Minor typo fix by wernerfred Added from their related PR by request.

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.
