+!!! example
+
+    Add these additions to the `mailserver` service in your [`docker-compose.yml`][github-file-compose]:
+
+    ```yaml
+    services:
+      mailserver:
+        # For the FQDN 'mail.example.com':
+        hostname: mail
+        domainname: example.com
+        environment:
+          - SSL_TYPE=letsencrypt
+        volumes:
+          - ./docker-data/certbot/certs/:/etc/letsencrypt
+    ```
+
