It can be useful for new users to see how other projects have built a mailserver from the container `docker-mailserver`.
|
## Building a simple mailserver
|
||||||
Here is a list of such installation pages:

|
We are going to use this docker based mailserver:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- First create a directory for the mailserver and get the setup script:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
mkdir -p /var/ds/mail.example.org
|
||||||
|
cd /var/ds/mail.example.org/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
curl -o setup.sh \
|
||||||
|
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/setup.sh
|
||||||
|
chmod a+x ./setup.sh
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Create the file `docker-compose.yml` with a content like this:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
version: '2'
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
services:
|
||||||
|
mail:
|
||||||
|
image: tvial/docker-mailserver:latest
|
||||||
|
hostname: mail
|
||||||
|
domainname: example.org
|
||||||
|
container_name: mail
|
||||||
|
ports:
|
||||||
|
- "25:25"
|
||||||
|
- "587:587"
|
||||||
|
- "465:465"
|
||||||
|
volumes:
|
||||||
|
- ./data/:/var/mail/
|
||||||
|
- ./state/:/var/mail-state/
|
||||||
|
- ./config/:/tmp/docker-mailserver/
|
||||||
|
- /var/ds/wsproxy/letsencrypt/:/etc/letsencrypt/
|
||||||
|
environment:
|
||||||
|
- PERMIT_DOCKER=network
|
||||||
|
- SSL_TYPE=letsencrypt
|
||||||
|
- ONE_DIR=1
|
||||||
|
- DMS_DEBUG=1
|
||||||
|
- SPOOF_PROTECTION=0
|
||||||
|
- REPORT_RECIPIENT=1
|
||||||
|
- ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN=0
|
||||||
|
- ENABLE_CLAMAV=0
|
||||||
|
- ENABLE_FAIL2BAN=1
|
||||||
|
- ENABLE_POSTGREY=0
|
||||||
|
cap_add:
|
||||||
|
- NET_ADMIN
|
||||||
|
- SYS_PTRACE
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For more details about the environment variables that can be used,
|
||||||
|
and their meaning and possible values, check also these:
|
||||||
|
- https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver#environment-variables
|
||||||
|
- https://github.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/blob/master/.env.dist
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Make sure to set the propper `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 these ports on the firewall: `25`, `587`, `465`
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
ufw allow 25
|
||||||
|
ufw allow 587
|
||||||
|
ufw allow 465
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
On your server you may have to do it differently.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Pull the docker image:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
docker pull tvial/docker-mailserver:latest
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Now generate the DKIM keys with `./setup.sh config dkim` and copy
|
||||||
|
the content of the file `config/opendkim/keys/domain.tld/mail.txt`
|
||||||
|
on the domain zone configuration at the DNS server. I use
|
||||||
|
[bind9](https://github.com/docker-scripts/bind9) for managing my
|
||||||
|
domains, so I just paste it on `example.org.db`:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
mail._domainkey IN TXT ( "v=DKIM1; h=sha256; k=rsa; "
|
||||||
|
"p=MIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFACAQ8AMIIBCgKCAQEAaH5KuPYPSF3Ppkt466BDMAFGOA4mgqn4oPjZ5BbFlYA9l5jU3bgzRj3l6/Q1n5a9lQs5fNZ7A/HtY0aMvs3nGE4oi+LTejt1jblMhV/OfJyRCunQBIGp0s8G9kIUBzyKJpDayk2+KJSJt/lxL9Iiy0DE5hIv62ZPP6AaTdHBAsJosLFeAzuLFHQ6USyQRojefqFQtgYqWQ2JiZQ3"
|
||||||
|
"iqq3bD/BVlwKRp5gH6TEYEmx8EBJUuDxrJhkWRUk2VDl1fqhVBy8A9O7Ah+85nMrlOHIFsTaYo9o6+cDJ6t1i6G1gu+bZD0d3/3bqGLPBQV9LyEL1Rona5V7TJBGg099NQkTz1IwIDAQAB" ) ; ----- DKIM key mail for example.org
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Add these configurations as well on the same file on the DNS server:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
mail IN A 10.11.12.13
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
; mailservers for example.org
|
||||||
|
3600 IN MX 1 mail.example.org.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
; Add SPF record
|
||||||
|
IN TXT "v=spf1 mx ~all"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Then don't forget to change the serial number and to restart the service.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Get an SSL certificate from letsencrypt. I use
|
||||||
|
[wsproxy](https://github.com/docker-scripts/wsproxy) for managing
|
||||||
|
SSL letsencrypt certificates of my domains:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
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`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Start the mailserver and check for any errors:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
apt install docker-compose
|
||||||
|
docker-compose up mail
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Create email accounts and aliases:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
./setup.sh email add admin@example.org passwd123
|
||||||
|
./setup.sh email add info@example.org passwd123
|
||||||
|
./setup.sh alias add admin@example.org myemail@gmail.com
|
||||||
|
./setup.sh alias add info@example.org myemail@gmail.com
|
||||||
|
./setup.sh email list
|
||||||
|
./setup.sh alias list
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
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 addreses and make other tests. Then
|
||||||
|
stop the container with `Ctrl+c` and start it again as a daemon:
|
||||||
|
`docker-compose up mail -d`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- 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`
