Hey all,

I have given up hope of hosting my own mail server but was hoping for one that would serve as an archive -

  • downloads new emails via IMAP from my mail provider on a regular basis
  • allows my mail clients to connect via IMAP to view and search emails

Any suggestions for a docker solution for this?

Thanks

Piggybacking on this question: any solution that provides really good indexing on those local mails, for fast wildcard searching?

I can’t give direct experience here, but this is exactly the use case I’ve been meaning to spin up mailpiler for: https://www.mailpiler.org/. One of these days that will rise to the top of the priority list.

Notmuch indexes and lets you tag things. You usually integrate it with emacs as the front end but its usable on it’s own.
