# docker-mailserver
A fullstack but simple mail server (smtp, imap, antispam, antivirus...).
Only configuration files, no SQL database. Keep it simple and versioned.
Easy to deploy and upgrade.
Includes:
- postfix with smtp auth
- courier-imap with ssl support
- amavis
- spamassasin
- clamav with automatic updates
Additional informations:
- only config files, no *sql database required
- mails are stored in `/var/mail/${domain}/${username}`
- email login are full email address (`username1@my-domain.com`)
- ssl is strongly recommended
- do not add whitespace in `$docker_mail_users` or `$docker_mail_aliases`
- user accounts are managed in `./postfix/accounts.cf`
- antispam are rules are managed in `./spamassassin/rules.cf`
- both files must be mounted to `/tmp` in your container (see `docker-compose.yml` template)
