Simple mail server (lemmy.world)
submitted 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) by Humorless4483@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Hello,

I want to deploy a simple mail server so that it can be used for users to register themselves or reset passwords, etc.

Is there an easy one to deploy (in docker if possible) ?

I self host my email. It was hard work to set up. 0/10. Would not come again.

i self host my mails for almost 20 years now, it was hard work in the beginning, now it's just a few updates a year. no problem with blacklists or anything, a good hoster is probably beneficial, 10/10 would recommend, even just to learn how all of this works

That's true. I did learn a lot, but the idea of setting it all up again gives me anxiety.

I second this comment. It's been a long time since I set one up and it was a pain. And from what I can tell it's only gotten harder.
