Announcement

At this point we have merged the next branch based on Debian Buster into master. That means the docker image latest uses Buster. The change may break things!

The following possibly breaking changes are known:

  • Filebeat is removed and should be handled by another container, see Wiki.
  • Dovecot will be downgraded a little bit (same major version) so that we can use the official Debian version.

If you want to stick to the old version a while longer, either switch to stable or to a specific version. If you run into problems, please raise issues and ask for help. Don't forget to provide details.

Includes

Issues & Contributing

Before you open an issue, please have a look this README, the Wiki and Postfix/Dovecot documentation. If you'd like to contribute, read CONTRIBUTING.md thoroughly.

Requirements

Recommended:

  • 1 CPU
  • 1-2GB RAM
  • Swap enabled for the container

Minimum:

  • 1 CPU
  • 512MB RAM

Note: You'll need to deactivate some services like ClamAV to be able to run on a host with 512MB of RAM. Even with 1G RAM you may run into problems without swap, see FAQ.

Usage

Get the tools

Download the docker-compose.yml, the .env and the setup.sh files:

curl -o setup.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/setup.sh; chmod a+x ./setup.sh

curl -o docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/docker-compose.yml.dist

curl -o .env https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/.env.dist

curl -o env-mailserver https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomav/docker-mailserver/master/env-mailserver.dist

Create a docker-compose environment

  • Edit the files .env and env-mailserver to your liking:
    • .env contains the configuration for docker-compose
    • env-mailserver contains the configuration for the mailserver container
    • These files supports only simple VAR=VAL lines (see Documentation).
    • Don't quote your values.
    • Variable substitution is not supported (e.g. OVERRIDE_HOSTNAME=$HOSTNAME.$DOMAINNAME).
  • Install docker-compose in the version 1.7 or higher.

Note: If you want to use a bare domain (host name equals domain name) see FAQ.

Start the Container

docker-compose up -d mail

Create your mail accounts

./setup.sh email add <user@domain> [<password>]

Generate DKIM keys

./setup.sh config dkim

Now the keys are generated, you can configure your DNS server by just pasting the content of config/opendkim/keys/domain.tld/mail.txt in your domain.tld.hosts zone.

Miscellaneous

Restart and update the container

docker-compose down
docker pull tvial/docker-mailserver:latest
docker-compose up -d mail

You're done!

And don't forget to have a look at the remaining functions of the setup.sh script

SPF/Forwarding Problems

If you got any problems with SPF and/or forwarding mails, give SRS a try. You enable SRS by setting ENABLE_SRS=1. See the variable description for further information.

For informational purposes

restart: always ensures that the mail server container (and Filebeat/ELK containers when using the mail server together with ELK stack) is automatically restarted by Docker in cases like a Docker service or host restart or container exit.

Exposed ports

Protocol Opt-in Encryption ¹ Enforced Encryption Purpose
SMTP 25 N/A Transfer²
ESMTP 587 465³ Submission
POP3 110 995 Retrieval
IMAP4 143 993 Retrieval
  1. A connection may be secured over TLS when both ends support STARTTLS. On ports 110, 143 and 587, docker-mailserver will reject a connection that cannot be secured. Port 25 is required to support insecure connections.
  2. Receives email and filters for spam and viruses. For submitting outgoing mail you should prefer the submission ports(465, 587), which require authentication. Unless a relay host is configured, outgoing email will leave the server via port 25(thus outbound traffic must not be blocked by your provider or firewall).
  3. A submission port since 2018, RFC 8314. Originally a secure variant of port 25.

See the wiki for further details and best practice advice, especially regarding security concerns.

ENABLE_FAIL2BAN
  • 0 => fail2ban service disabled
  • 1 => Enables fail2ban service

If you enable Fail2Ban, don't forget to add the following lines to your docker-compose.yml:

cap_add:
  - NET_ADMIN

Otherwise, iptables won't be able to ban IPs.

SMTP_ONLY
  • empty => all daemons start
  • 1 => only launch postfix smtp
SSL_TYPE
  • empty => SSL disabled
  • letsencrypt => Enables Let's Encrypt certificates
  • custom => Enables custom certificates

  • modern => Enables TLSv1.2 and modern ciphers only. (default)
  • intermediate => Enables TLSv1, TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 and broad compatibility ciphers.
  • old => NOT implemented. If you really need it, then customize the TLS ciphers overriding postfix and dovecot settings wiki
SPOOF_PROTECTION

Configures the handling of creating mails with forged sender addresses.

  • empty => Mail address spoofing allowed. Any logged in user may create email messages with a forged sender address. See also Wikipedia(not recommended, but default for backwards compatibility reasons)
  • 1 => (recommended) Mail spoofing denied. Each user may only send with his own or his alias addresses. Addresses with extension delimiters are not able to send messages.
ENABLE_SRS

Enables the Sender Rewriting Scheme. SRS is needed if your mail server acts as forwarder. See postsrsd for further explanation.

  • 0 => Disabled
  • 1 => Enabled
PERMIT_DOCKER

Set different options for mynetworks option (can be overwrite in postfix-main.cf) WARNING: Adding the docker network's gateway to the list of trusted hosts, e.g. using the network or connected-networks option, can create an open relay, for instance if IPv6 is enabled on the host machine but not in Docker.

  • empty => localhost only
  • host => Add docker host (ipv4 only)
  • network => Add the docker default bridge network (172.16.0.0/12); WARNING: docker-compose might use others (e.g. 192.168.0.0/16) use PERMIT_DOCKER=connected-networks in this case

ENABLE_MANAGESIEVE
  • empty => Managesieve service disabled
  • 1 => Enables Managesieve on port 4190
OVERRIDE_HOSTNAME
  • empty => uses the hostname command to get the mail server's canonical hostname
  • => Specify a fully-qualified domainname to serve mail for. This is used for many of the config features so if you can't set your hostname (e.g. you're in a container platform that doesn't let you) specify it in this environment variable.
POSTMASTER_ADDRESS
POSTSCREEN_ACTION
  • enforce => Allow other tests to complete. Reject attempts to deliver mail with a 550 SMTP reply, and log the helo/sender/recipient information. Repeat this test the next time the client connects.
  • drop => Drop the connection immediately with a 521 SMTP reply. Repeat this test the next time the client connects.
  • ignore => Ignore the failure of this test. Allow other tests to complete. Repeat this test the next time the client connects. This option is useful for testing and collecting statistics without blocking mail.
DOVECOT_MAILBOX_FORMAT
  • maildir => uses very common Maildir format, one file contains one message
  • sdbox => (experimental) uses Dovecot high-performance mailbox format, one file contains one message
  • mdbox ==> (experimental) uses Dovecot high-performance mailbox format, multiple messages per file and multiple files per box

This option has been added in November 2019. Using other format than Maildir is considered as experimental in docker-mailserver and should only be used for testing purpose. For more details, please refer to Dovecot Documentation.

POSTFIX_INET_PROTOCOLS
  • all => All possible protocols.
  • ipv4 => Use only IPv4 traffic. Most likely you want this behind Docker.
  • ipv6 => Use only IPv6 traffic.

Reports

PFLOGSUMM_TRIGGER

Enables regular pflogsumm mail reports.

  • not set => No report
  • daily_cron => Daily report for the previous day
  • logrotate => Full report based on the mail log when it is rotated

This is a new option. The old REPORT options are still supported for backwards compatibility. If this is not set and reports are enabled with the old options, logrotate will be used.

PFLOGSUMM_RECIPIENT

Recipient address for pflogsumm reports.

  • not set => Use REPORT_RECIPIENT or POSTMASTER_ADDRESS
  • => Specify the recipient address(es)
PFLOGSUMM_SENDER

From address for pflogsumm reports.

  • not set => Use REPORT_SENDER or POSTMASTER_ADDRESS
  • => Specify the sender address
LOGWATCH_INTERVAL

Interval for logwatch report.

  • none => No report is generated
  • daily => Send a daily report
  • weekly => Send a report every week
LOGWATCH_RECIPIENT

Recipient address for logwatch reports if they are enabled.

  • not set => Use REPORT_RECIPIENT or POSTMASTER_ADDRESS
  • => Specify the recipient address(es)
REPORT_RECIPIENT (deprecated)

Enables a report being sent (created by pflogsumm) on a regular basis.

  • 0 => Report emails are disabled unless enabled by other options
  • 1 => Using POSTMASTER_ADDRESS as the recipient
  • => Specify the recipient address
REPORT_SENDER (deprecated)

Change the sending address for mail report

  • empty => mailserver-report@hostname
  • => Specify the report sender (From) address
REPORT_INTERVAL (deprecated)

Changes the interval in which logs are rotated and a report is being sent (deprecated).

  • daily => Send a daily report
  • weekly => Send a report every week
  • monthly => Send a report every month

Note: This variable used to control logrotate inside the container and sent the pflogsumm report when the logs were rotated. It is still supported for backwards compatibility, but the new option LOGROTATE_INTERVAL has been added that only rotates the logs.

LOGROTATE_INTERVAL

Defines the interval in which the mail log is being rotated.

  • daily => Rotate daily.
  • weekly => Rotate weekly.
  • monthly => Rotate monthly.

Note that only the log inside the container is affected. The full log output is still available via docker logs mail (or your respective container name). If you want to control logrotation for the docker generated logfile see: Docker Logging Drivers.

Also note that by default the logs are lost when the container is recycled. To keep the logs, mount a volume.

Finally the logrotate interval may affect the period for generated reports. That is the case when the reports are triggered by log rotation.

Spamassassin

ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN
  • 0 => Spamassassin is disabled
  • 1 => Spamassassin is enabled

/!\ Spam delivery: when Spamassassin is enabled, messages marked as spam WILL NOT BE DELIVERED. Use SPAMASSASSIN_SPAM_TO_INBOX=1 for receiving spam messages.

SPAMASSASSIN_SPAM_TO_INBOX
  • 0 => Spam messages will be bounced (rejected) without any notification (dangerous).
  • 1 => Spam messages will be delivered to the inbox and tagged as spam using SA_SPAM_SUBJECT.
MOVE_SPAM_TO_JUNK
  • 1 => Spam messages will be delivered in the Junk folder.
  • 0 => Spam messages will be delivered in the mailbox.

Note: this setting needs SPAMASSASSIN_SPAM_TO_INBOX=1

SA_TAG
  • 2.0 => add spam info headers if at, or above that level

Note: this spamassassin setting needs ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN=1

SA_TAG2
  • 6.31 => add 'spam detected' headers at that level

Note: this spamassassin setting needs ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN=1

SA_KILL
  • 6.31 => triggers spam evasive actions

Note: this spamassassin setting needs ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN=1. By default, the mailserver is configured to quarantine spam emails. If emails are quarantined, they are compressed and stored in a location dependent on the ONE_DIR setting above. If ONE_DIR=1 the location is /var/mail-state/lib-amavis/virusmails/. If ONE_DIR=0 it is /var/lib/amavis/virusmails/. These paths are inside the docker container. To inhibit this behaviour and deliver spam emails, set this to a very high value e.g. 100.0.

SA_SPAM_SUBJECT
  • ***SPAM*** => add tag to subject if spam detected

Note: this spamassassin setting needs ENABLE_SPAMASSASSIN=1. Add the spamassassin score to the subject line by inserting the keyword SCORE: ***SPAM(SCORE)***.

SA_SHORTCIRCUIT_BAYES_SPAM
  • 1 => will activate spamassassin short circuiting for bayes spam detection.

This will uncomment the respective line in /etc/spamassasin/local.cf

Note: activate this only if you are confident in your bayes database for identifying spam.

SA_SHORTCIRCUIT_BAYES_HAM
  • 1 => will activate spamassassin short circuiting for bayes ham detection
