Nextcloud Mail vs Separate Webmail Apps (SOGo/Roundcube) on Cloudron

[IniBudi]

Hi everyone,

I’d like to ask for some opinions and experiences regarding email apps on Cloudron.

If you already have Nextcloud installed on your server, do you also install a separate webmail app such as SOGo or Roundcube on the same Cloudron instance?

I noticed that Nextcloud has a Mail app that can integrate with Cloudron’s email system. Because of this, I’m wondering:

• What are the reasons or advantages for still installing SOGo or Roundcube
  when Nextcloud already provides email functionality?
• Are there any limitations or issues with Nextcloud Mail that make SOGo or Roundcube a better choice in some situations?

I’m looking for different points of view because I’m not yet fully familiar with the pros and cons of each approach.

Any recommendations, example setups, or best practices from your own deployments would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance for your insights.

Best regards.

It's really a matter of taste. I have also SOGo installed, mainly because it enables active-sync.
