    @timconsidine as I understand it, the smtp port of the archive solution is only relevant for receiving the bcc mails. The user uses the "normal" (in this case the Cloudron) smtp server for sending emails via webmail or the local mail client. And Cloudron smtp forwards/sends any incoming or outgoing mail via smtp to the archive solution. That is the magic in my understanding 🙂

    @luckow thank you
    I just didn't know inbound can even be done via SMTP. Either my bad knowledge, or non-standard config.

        @timconsidine I've updated Dockerfile to fix all building issues you faced with. After that everything went just fine on a fresh cloned copy.

        @timconsidine said in Mailpiler - self hosted email archive:

        Blundering around in the dark, but I notice that start.sh has on line 53

        local SSL_CERT_DATA="/C=US/ST=Denial/L=Springfield/O=Dis/CN=www.example.com"
        

        Should this not reference the Cloudron variable for location ?

        When tls add-on is enabled in the manifest, the script doesn't generate a self signed certificate and uses the Cloudron certificate of the primary domain. I've amended it to use $CLOUDRON_APP_DOMAIN variable.

        @timconsidine said in Mailpiler - self hosted email archive:

        Successfully built and pushed to repository (docker in my case).
        App installed on Cloudron w/o hassle .... but hangs in 'starting' mode.
        So I uninstalled and tried cloudron install --image <repo>/<image>:<tag> without the --no-wait option.
        This installs but similarly gets stuck

         => Wait for health check ............................^C
        

        Out of my depth now. What to check / amend ?

        It doesn't get stuck for me - I've tried to build&install the app with the recent changes.

        I guess there is an issue with piler or nginx directories in /etc/, probably a wrong path or an invalid symlink or so.
        You need to look at the app logs to see the issue.

          @timconsidine Nice, more the merrier!

          It's definitely another app that can help win mindshare for Cloudron as an enterprise considerate solution with this sort of auditing. Especially when it can be setup as a separate Cloudron instance too for further risk spreading.

            @marcusquinn agreed.
            I totally agree. Have tried some archiving solutions previously and mailpiler looks nice.
            But I having a "thick" morning :

            • looking through app and their online docs, I can't what address emails should be BCC'ed to. Is it staring me in the face and I can't see it? Do I have to set it up ?

            • importing from a server doesn't specify a port number to access IMAP on, so test connection always fails, and it doesn't specify SSL/STARTTLS

            I'm embarrassed by these basic questions, but if someone can nudge me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

                @marcusquinn no problem, stumbling through it
                Testing some configs
                Another Q for later : what is a "mapped domain" when setting up a domain? Can't find any references to it.
                No rush.

                    BTW does Mailpiler have any sort of compression? I recently tried to switch from the gold standard MailStore Home to another solution (in an attempt to ditch my Windows VM for good) - and my 30 GB MailStore Archive went up to 110 GB(!) in mbox files!

                      @necrevistonnezr Don't know yet but will post some stats when I get to it. The project I have with it is for years of company email archives, so will have some good stats to compare from source to destination.

                      I might research file-system level deduplication, as I imagine there's a lot of duplicate files from email threads.

                            @necrevistonnezr Hey, we have it working, need to ask @vladimir-d to commit to Cloudron's GitLab and let the team verify it's good to go for App Store inclusion.

                              Hi all,
                              I am wondering if we are far away from an addition of mailpiler to the Cloudron app repository. It would be of great help in a couple of the situation I am facing atm.
                              @vladimir-d Maybe you have had the chance to commit the working app version to Clourdon's GitLab already

                              If I can help (within the remit of my abilities) or contribute in making this happen, I would be happy to do so.

                                    @vladimir-d Would be awesome to get this working... Since the LAW in austria and germany for this hase been activate now for i think 2 Years. That you need a Mail Archive where you can proof the Mail is not changed....

                                      @vladimir-d Would be awesome to get this working... Since the LAW in austria and germany for this hase been activate now for i think 2 Years. That you need a Mail Archive where you can proof the Mail is not changed....

                                      @savity As an alternative, you can achieve pretty-much the same thing with EspoCRM, as that will import emails to give you the same duplicate data in an alternative place.

                                        With full text search of mails and attachments? Can this be used for continuous backup?

                                          @necrevistonnezr full text search of emails, yes. Attachment searching I don't think so but it could be possible as we're using this full-time for 100+ users, so there's some value in us developing anything that isn't there. Sure, just add connection details and it will keep importing emails regardless of if you login or not.
