We are thrilled to announce the release of Stalwart Mail Server 0.5.2, which brings two significant advancements: the integration of the ACME protocol for automatic TLS certificate deployment and support for the HAProxy Protocol. These features mark a substantial step forward in our commitment to enhancing the security and efficiency of Stalwart Mail Server.
I wouldn’t; it’s a monolithic container and I wouldn’t be comfortable putting an edge device up like that, with no separation of the backend from the front-facing services.
Another user pointed out that there is no webmail built in so all that is contained is stuff that would need to be on the edge, i.e. SMTP and I/JMAP. Those services need direct port communication to the internet. As for the true backend stuff it’s not part of the setup since you need to provide your own storage backend and authentication backend. So I don’t understand your concern, could you elaborate what they do wrong in your mind?
You could also just run IMAP/JMAP/SMTP as separate components, I can’t see any place in the Stalwart documentation - or in the Docker image itself - where monolith is the only option.
I haven’t tested the setup myself yet, but me and another root are planning on testing a setup of Stalwart to replace a semi-broken IMAP/JMAP setup for a computer club, keeping the SMTP as is.
Out of curiosity, what JMAP client have you been using? There doesn’t seem to be a lot yet and I’ve heard mixed reports about it with larger volumes, not that I’m working at scale anymore
Haven’t really used any proper JMAP clients - since the setup is broken anyway, so mainly just curl.
