<![CDATA[Perhaps email should be an App?]]>I'm wondering if email services should be a Cloudron App?

That way it would have the same backup, restore, and migration features as all other apps.

Perhaps one Email App per domain where it's enabled, to make it easier to subdivide Cloudron servers in future.

Do you think it possible to make it granular (by mailbox) on restore?

We wanted to create a "fake app" instead which will have all the functionality of a normal app. Like backup/restore etc . So yes, thanks for the reminder to revisit this.

I wish we can choose which apps to restore when migrating a server which would have made my server subdivision a much smoother experience. Even now, I'd like to get a small VPS for CR mail only and this feature would be perfect!
