Secure & Modern All-in-One Mail Server (IMAP, JMAP, SMTP) - GitHub - stalwartlabs/mail-server: Secure & Modern All-in-One Mail Server (IMAP, JMAP, SMTP)

Copied from r/selfhosted as seems interesting enough to share with wider audience.

I’m excited to announce the release of Stalwart Mail Server, a single binary solution that combines the Stalwart JMAP, Stalwart IMAP, and Stalwart SMTP servers into one easy-to-install package.

In response to user feedback, some key enhancements were made. Stalwart Mail Server now supports LDAP and SQL authentication, providing seamless integration with your existing infrastructure.

For single node setups, RocksDB has been replaced with SQLite with the option of using LiteStream for replication. For larger, distributed setups, support for FoundationDB was added, letting you scale to millions of users without sacrificing performance. Additionally, it is now also possible to store your emails in an S3-compatible storage solution such as MinIO, Amazon S3, or Google Cloud Storage.

Other notable updates include support for disk quota, subaddressing (or plus addressing) and catch-all addresses.

I look forward to your feedback and questions!

      I think there’s a lot of FUD around this. Yes, deliverability can be a PITA, but with a clean IP and good setup it’s usually solvable. Worst case, you can pay a small amount to use a 3rd party SMTP relay and still get most of the benefits of selfhosting. It wasn’t deliverability that made me stop selfhosting it was spam, and it wasn’t that dealing with spam was that hard, it was just annoying.

        As an anecdote – I have been sitting on an elastic IP at AWS for years, with reverse DNS configured properly for it. Way early on (years ago), some spam filters would block the whole netblock, but I can’t remember the last time the IP Block was wholesale blocked. I think AWS is very much on top of any spam complaints from their Elastic IPs, and as long as you don’t abuse your specific IP, you are in good shape for light volume, non-spam mail.

        I use Mail-in-a-Box (planning to move to ISPMail though) and i rarely have deliverability issues. My main issue is actually that the grey filter takes too long for my preferences! With self hosting mail, i consider that a good issue to have

      This is unfortunately true. That much said, the tide may be slowly turning in our favor as more and more people discover non-corporate, free and open source social media. Some of my circle of tech friends have deleted all corporate social media and have stood up instances of Mastodon or Akkoma, Friendica, Pixelfed, and Lemmy or Kbin for family.

      Eventually, people will be asking themselves why they bother using gmail.com, outlook.com, and yahho.com addresses when they can just do it themselves for friends and family. The internet was never meant to be controlled by a select few corporations. It was always intended to be decentralized to avoid a single point of failure so as to continue to mostly work in the case of war, catastrophe, or both.
