Hi, thanks for the video I have few questions, basically I want to host my application using cloud panel and also want to use my machine for all domain based email.
– Can I host mail in box with cloud pannel (both will run on same machine)?
– Can I use mail in box for multiple domain based email?
Great video! definitly will test it!! any test on local host for this project?
I got scared when you told me to delete my other name servers. Is this an e-mail server installation guide at expert level, or should I just delete my in production, …
too late… Thanks
following along, looks like they recommend 22.04 now! seems like everything else stays the same!
Hello Brian @AwesomeOpenSource
I am curious why you did the step at the beginning to create a non-root user?
I had done an install of this already and I had not done that.
What is the benefit or necessity of doing that?
This is great but digital ocean will not allow outbound 25 on any new accounts. ugh.
The reason for having ns1 and ns2 is that DNS is so important that you you need at least 2 different servers, and, preferably more. This is a disservice to use the same IP for 2 dns servers. In this case just have a single ns1 and explain the danger of doing so.
hi i just use cyberpanel and sendinblue smtp relay, is it bad ?
I like the webcam appearence
Can u add any recommended block IP checkers to the description
Amaizing. Thanks for your generocity which make the generocity of the developers have a lot of impact. KEEPON
HI, I follow the process of your video. The setup still failed. Always prompt DNS error. Could you be a little more specific. Or, set up DNS with a more common, user-friendly mailbox (NameSilo). I'm a rookie, but I also want to try to have my own mailbox.
Thank you so much.
Awesome tutorial! I am curious if it's possible to connect the nextcloud Contacts and Calendar to a full Nextcloud installation or is there a way to reactivate it? Or does it just cause heaps of issues?
Outstandingly presented! Your videos are very well done, without a lot of the nonsense others seem to thing they have to have, like background ( I wish) "music". or droning on and on about a lot of things unrelated to the topic. I'm continually impressed by the way you present. Thanks!
how do you protect your mailserver against spam. can you advise someting like barracuda, but open source?
Oh so many settings and for every domain, so if I have my domains DNS on cloudflare how I will manage only emails on Mailinbox separate server from domain or website. Is that possible because nameserver website pointed out to Cloudflare and we cant set then as status checking option not just point out email's DNS but domain's DNS etc. Is that possible to have mailinbox in this scenario?
Awesome content, great video. Very informative. Keep it up!
Hi Brian, Is it possible to have mail server on docker container with nginx ?
I am sending email campaigns to a lot of emails. Can i use this application to send emails?
Is it possible to self-host mailing list using agro tunnel?
