### Create a docker-compose environment
- [Install the latest docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
- Edit the files `.env` and `mailserver.env` to your liking:
- `.env` contains the configuration for Docker Compose
- `mailserver.env` contains the configuration for the mailserver container
- these files supports [only simple `VAR=VAL`](https://docs.docker.com/compose/env-file/)
- don't quote your values
- variable substitution is *not* supported (e.g. `OVERRIDE_HOSTNAME=$HOSTNAME.$DOMAINNAME`).
- Variables in `.env` are expanded in the `docker-compose.yml` file **only** and **not** in the container. The file `mailserver.env` serves this case where environment variables are used in the container.
- If you want to use a bare domain (host name = domain name), see [FAQ](https://docker-mailserver.github.io/docker-mailserver/edge/faq#can-i-use-nakedbare-domains-no-host-name)
1. [Install the latest docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
2. Edit `docker-compose.yml` to your liking
- substitute `<HOSTNAME>` and `<DOMAINNAME>` according to your domain
- if you want to use SELinux for the `./config/:/tmp/docker-mailserver/` mount, append `-z` or `-Z`
3. Configure the mailserver container to your liking by editing `mailserver.env` ([**Documentation**](https://docker-mailserver.github.io/docker-mailserver/edge/config/environment/))
- this file supports [_only_ simple `VAR=VAL`](https://docs.docker.com/compose/env-file/) (**don't** quote your values)

#### Supported Operating Systems
We are currently providing support for Linux. Windows is _not_ supported and is known to cause problems. Similarly, macOS is _not officially_ supported - but you may get it to work there. In the end, Linux should be your preferred operating system for this image, especially when using this mailserver in production.

Usage: ./setup.sh [-i IMAGE_NAME] [-c CONTAINER_NAME] <subcommand> <subcommand> [args]
NAME
setup.sh - docker-mailserver administration script
OPTIONS:
SYNOPSIS
./setup.sh [ OPTIONS... ] COMMAND [ help | ARGUMENTS... ]
-i IMAGE_NAME The name of the docker-mailserver image
The default value is
'docker.io/mailserver/docker-mailserver:latest'
COMMAND := { email | alias | quota | config | relay | debug } SUBCOMMAND
-c CONTAINER_NAME The name of the running container.
DESCRIPTION
This is the main administration script that you use for all interactions with your
mail server. Setup, configuration and much more is done with this script.
-p PATH Config folder path (default: /home/georg/github/docker-mailserver/config)
Please note that the script executes most of the commands inside the container itself.
If the image was not found, this script will pull the :latest tag of
mailserver/docker-mailserver. This tag refers to the latest release,
see the tagging convention in the README under
https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver/blob/master/README.md
-h Show this help dialogue
You will be able to see detailed information about the script you are invoking and
its arguments by appending help after your command. Currently, this
does not work with all scripts.
-z Allow container access to the bind mount content
that is shared among multiple containers
on a SELinux-enabled host.
VERSION
The current version of this script is backwards compatible with versions of
docker-mailserver after 8.0.1. In case that there is not a more recent release,
this script is currently only working with the :edge tag.
-Z Allow container access to the bind mount content
that is private and unshared with other containers
on a SELinux-enabled host.
You can download the script for your release by substituting TAG from the
following URL, where TAG looks like 'vX.X.X':

# Mailserver Environment Variables
#
# DOCUMENTATION FOR THESE VARIABLES IS FOUND UNDER
# https://docker-mailserver.github.io/docker-mailserver/edge/config/environment/
#
# General Section
#
# empty => uses the `hostname` command to get the mail server's canonical hostname
# => Specify a fully-qualified domainname to serve mail for. This is used for many of the config features so if you can't set your hostname (e.g. you're in a container platform that doesn't let you) specify it in this environment variable.
