## Requirements
Recommended:
- 1 CPU
2019-10-28 12:55:18 +00:00
- 1-2GB RAM
- Swap enabled for the container
2018-01-09 07:31:15 +00:00
Minimum:
- 1 CPU
- 512MB RAM
2019-11-02 05:46:35 +00:00
**Note:** You'll need to deactivate some services like ClamAV to be able to run on a host with 512MB of RAM. Even with 1G RAM you may run into problems without swap, see [FAQ ](https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/wiki/FAQ-and-Tips ).

## Usage
2015-03-31 15:28:13 +00:00
2016-05-08 18:10:38 +00:00
#### Get latest image
2016-08-31 13:15:39 +00:00
2016-05-08 18:10:38 +00:00
docker pull tvial/docker-mailserver:latest
2015-03-28 15:04:09 +00:00
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
#### Get the tools
2016-04-20 08:15:51 +00:00
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
Download the docker-compose.yml, the .env and the setup.sh files:
2018-03-07 18:33:43 +00:00
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
curl -o setup.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/setup.sh; chmod a+x ./setup.sh
2018-03-07 18:33:43 +00:00
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
curl -o docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/docker-compose.yml.dist
2018-03-07 18:33:43 +00:00
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
curl -o .env https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/.env.dist
2019-10-17 15:53:32 +00:00
curl -o env-mailserver https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/env-mailserver.dist
2016-02-01 14:05:29 +00:00
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
#### Create a docker-compose environment
2019-09-29 18:17:09 +00:00
- Edit the files `.env` and `env-mailserver` to your liking:
2019-09-20 19:38:13 +00:00
- `.env` contains the configuration for docker-compose
- `env-mailserver` contains the configuration for the mailserver container
2019-09-20 16:40:37 +00:00
- These files supports only simple `VAR=VAL` lines (see [Documentation ](https://docs.docker.com/compose/env-file/ )).
2018-11-11 19:46:53 +00:00
- Don't quote your values.
- Variable substitution is *not* supported (e.g. `OVERRIDE_HOSTNAME=$HOSTNAME.$DOMAINNAME` ).
2019-01-20 10:16:19 +00:00
- Install [docker-compose ](https://docs.docker.com/compose/ ) in the version `1.7` or higher.
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
2018-10-14 19:41:52 +00:00
#### Start Container
docker-compose up -d mail
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
#### Create your mail accounts
2018-04-04 16:59:28 +00:00
./setup.sh email add < user @ domain > [< password > ]
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
#### Generate DKIM keys
./setup.sh config dkim
Now the keys are generated, you can configure your DNS server by just pasting the content of `config/opendkim/keys/domain.tld/mail.txt` in your `domain.tld.hosts` zone.
2019-07-24 12:06:31 +00:00
#### Restart and update the container
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
2018-10-14 19:41:52 +00:00
docker-compose down
2019-07-24 12:06:31 +00:00
docker pull tvial/docker-mailserver:latest
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
docker-compose up -d mail
You're done!
And don't forget to have a look at the remaining functions of the `setup.sh` script
2018-03-18 19:15:06 +00:00
#### SPF/Forwarding Problems
If you got any problems with SPF and/or forwarding mails, give [SRS ](https://github.com/roehling/postsrsd/blob/master/README.md ) a try. You enable SRS by setting `ENABLE_SRS=1` . See the variable description for further information.
2018-02-07 18:37:26 +00:00
#### For informational purposes:
Your config folder will be mounted in `/tmp/docker-mailserver/` . To understand how things work on boot, please have a look at [start-mailserver.sh ](https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/blob/master/target/start-mailserver.sh )
2017-01-04 09:05:02 +00:00
2017-03-16 15:45:47 +00:00
`restart: always` ensures that the mail server container (and ELK container when using the mail server together with ELK stack) is automatically restarted by Docker in cases like a Docker service or host restart or container exit.
2018-02-18 12:12:39 +00:00
#### Exposed ports
* 25 receiving email from other mailservers
* 465 SSL Client email submission
* 587 TLS Client email submission
* 143 StartTLS IMAP client
* 993 TLS/SSL IMAP client
* 110 POP3 client
* 995 TLS/SSL POP3 client
`Note: Port 25 is only for receiving email from other mailservers and not for submitting email. You need to use port 465 or 587 for this.`

- monthly => Send a report every month
2019-09-15 13:40:05 +00:00
Note: This variable used to control logrotate inside the container and sent the pflogsumm report when the logs were rotated.
It is still supported for backwards compatibility, but the new option LOGROTATE_INTERVAL has been added that only rotates
the logs.
##### LOGROTATE_INTERVAL
Defines the interval in which the mail log is being rotated.
- **daily** => Rotate daily.
- weekly => Rotate weekly.
- monthly => Rotate monthly.
Note that only the log inside the container is affected.
The full log output is still available via `docker logs mail` (or your respective container name).
If you want to control logrotation for the docker generated logfile see: [Docker Logging Drivers ](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/logging/configure/ ).
Also note that by default the logs are lost when the container is recycled. To keep the logs, mount a volume.
Finally the logrotate interval **may** affect the period for generated reports. That is the case when the reports are triggered by log rotation.

Note: this spamassassin setting needs `ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN=1` . By default, the mailserver is configured to quarantine spam emails. If emails are quarantined, they are compressed and stored in a location dependent on the ONE_DIR setting above. If `ONE_DIR=1` the location is /var/mail-state/lib-amavis/virusmails/. If `ONE_DIR=0` it is /var/lib/amavis/virusmails/. These paths are inside the docker container. To inhibit this behaviour and deliver spam emails, set this to a very high value e.g. 100.0.

## Postgrey
Introducing Postscreen (#799)
* Introduced Postscreen
cheaper, earlier and simpler blocking of zombies/spambots.
From http://postfix.cs.utah.edu/POSTSCREEN_README.html :
As a first layer, postscreen(8) blocks connections from zombies and other spambots that are responsible for about 90% of all spam. It is implemented as a single process to make this defense as cheap as possible.
Things we need to consider:
- Do we need a whitelist/backlist file? (http://postfix.cs.utah.edu/postconf.5.html#postscreen_access_list)
- Via introducing an optional config/postfix-access.cidr
- The only permanent whitelisting I could imagine are monitoring services(which might (still?) behave weird/hastely) or blacklisting backup servers(since no traffic should be coming from them anyway)
- Do we need deep inspections? They are desireable, but these tests are expensive: a good client must disconnect after it passes the test, before it can talk to a real Postfix SMTP server. Considered tests are:
- postscreen_bare_newline_enable (http://postfix.cs.utah.edu/postconf.5.html#postscreen_bare_newline_action)
- postscreen_non_smtp_command_enable (http://postfix.cs.utah.edu/postconf.5.html#postscreen_non_smtp_command_action)
- postscreen_pipelining_enable (http://postfix.cs.utah.edu/postconf.5.html#postscreen_pipelining_action)
- Do we need to make the blacklisting via dnsblocking configurable? It's currently set and weighted as follows, where a score of 3 results in blocking, a score of -1 results in whitelisting:
(*: adds the specified weight to the SMTP client's DNSBL score. Specify a negative number for whitelisting.)
(http://postfix.cs.utah.edu/postconf.5.html#postscreen_dnsbl_sites)
- zen.spamhaus.org*3
- bl.mailspike.net
- b.barracudacentral.org*2
- bl.spameatingmonkey.net
- bl.spamcop.net
- dnsbl.sorbs.net
- psbl.surriel.com
- list.dnswl.org=127.0.[0..255].0*-2
- list.dnswl.org=127.0.[0..255].1*-3
- list.dnswl.org=127.0.[0..255].[2..3]*-4
- What to do when blacklisting? I currently set it to drop. We could
- ignore: Ignore the failure of this test. Allow other tests to complete. Repeat this test the next time the client connects. This option is useful for testing and collecting statistics without blocking mail.
- enforce: Allow other tests to complete. Reject attempts to deliver mail with a 550 SMTP reply, and log the helo/sender/recipient information. Repeat this test the next time the client connects.
- drop: Drop the connection immediately with a 521 SMTP reply. Repeat this test the next time the client connects.
In the end I think we could drop postgrey support. Postscreen replaces postgrey in its entirety, while being more selective and not delaying mail. Especially if we consider using the deep inspection options of postscreen.
Hope that wasn't too much to read! ;)
