title: 'Advanced | Email Gathering with Getmail'
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
To enable the [getmail][getmail-website] service to retrieve e-mails set the environment variable `ENABLE_GETMAIL` to `1`. Your `compose.yaml` file should include the following:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
environment:
|
|
- ENABLE_GETMAIL=1
|
|
- GETMAIL_POLL=5
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In your DMS config volume (eg: `docker-data/dms/config/`), create a `getmail-<ID>.cf` file for each remote account that you want to retrieve mail and store into a local DMS account. `<ID>` should be replaced by you, and is just the rest of the filename (eg: `getmail-example.cf`). The contents of each file should be configuration like documented below.
|
|
|
|
The directory structure should similar to this:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
├── docker-data/dms/config
|
|
│ ├── dovecot.cf
|
|
│ ├── getmail-example.cf
|
|
│ ├── postfix-accounts.cf
|
|
│ └── postfix-virtual.cf
|
|
├── docker-compose.yml
|
|
└── README.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
A detailed description of the configuration options can be found in the [online version of the manual page][getmail-docs].
|
|
|
|
### Common Options
|
|
|
|
The default options added to each `getmail` config are:
|
|
|
|
```getmailrc
|
|
[options]
|
|
verbose = 0
|
|
read_all = false
|
|
delete = false
|
|
max_messages_per_session = 500
|
|
received = false
|
|
delivered_to = false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to use a different base config, mount a file to `/etc/getmailrc_general`. This file will replace the default "Common Options" base config above, that all `getmail-<ID>.cf` files will extend with their configs when used.
|
|
|
|
??? example "IMAP Configuration"
|
|
|
|
This example will:
|
|
|
|
1. Connect to the remote IMAP server from Gmail.
|
|
2. Retrieve mail from the gmail account `alice` with password `notsecure`.
|
|
3. Store any mail retrieved from the remote mail-server into DMS for the `user1@example.com` account that DMS manages.
|
|
|
|
```getmailrc
|
|
[retriever]
|
|
type = SimpleIMAPRetriever
|
|
server = imap.gmail.com
|
|
username = alice
|
|
password = notsecure
|
|
[destination]
|
|
type = MDA_external
|
|
path = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver
|
|
allow_root_commands = true
|
|
arguments =("-d","user1@example.com")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
??? example "POP3 Configuration"
|
|
|
|
Just like the IMAP example above, but instead via POP3 protocol if you prefer that over IMAP.
|
|
|
|
```getmailrc
|
|
[retriever]
|
|
type = SimplePOP3Retriever
|
|
server = pop3.gmail.com
|
|
username = alice
|
|
password = notsecure
|
|
[destination]
|
|
type = MDA_external
|
|
path = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver
|
|
allow_root_commands = true
|
|
arguments =("-d","user1@example.com")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Polling Interval
|
|
|
|
By default the `getmail` service checks external mail accounts for new mail every 5 minutes. That polling interval is configurable via the `GETMAIL_POLL` ENV variable, with a value in minutes (_default: 5, min: 1, max: 30_):
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
environment:
|
|
- GETMAIL_POLL=1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### XOAUTH2 Authentication
|
|
|
|
It is possible to utilize the `getmail-gmail-xoauth-tokens` helper to provide authentication using `xoauth2` for [gmail (example 12)][getmail-docs-xoauth-12] or [Microsoft Office 365 (example 13)][getmail-docs-xoauth-13]
