# docker-mailserver
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/tomav/docker-mailserver.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/tomav/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
Why I created this image: [Simple mail server with Docker](http://tvi.al/simple-mail-server-with-docker/)
## informations:
- only config files, no *sql database required
- mails are stored in `/var/mail/${domain}/${username}`
- you should use a data volume container for `/var/mail` for data persistence
- email login are full email address (`username1@my-domain.com`)
- user accounts are managed in `./postfix/accounts.cf`
- aliases and fowards/redirects are managed in `./postfix/virtual`
- antispam rules are managed in `./spamassassin/rules.cf`
- files must be mounted to `/tmp` in your container (see `docker-compose.yml` template)
- ssl is strongly recommended, read [SSL.md](SSL.md) to use LetsEncrypt or Self-Signed Certificates
- [includes integration tests](https://travis-ci.org/tomav/docker-mailserver)
- [builds automated on docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/tvial/docker-mailserver/)
