https://www.phplist.org/

Thanks for the recommendation. PHPList looks like a "campaign" mailing list to send to external people. This is definitely useful but not quite what we were after.

More we are looking for mailing lists for internal people that maintains nice archives and people inside our group can subscribe to our de-subscribe to. Eg sales@ourconmpany.com, devops@ourcompany.com, expenses@ourcompany.com, design@ourcompany.com, marketing@ourcompany.com, etc. And so as people our interested in some of these topics they get naturally filtered to the different email lists... and we have internal archives of these lists. It works quite well as we currently have it. I just want to bring this sort of thing over to a cloudron server!

@girish Thanks Grish! It gives me an idea of timelines. We will try and hack this together if we can't find other tools!

@girish Not to be pushy but do you have any idea on the timeline here? Eg if it is more than a couple months then I might try and limp through with a hacky solution of:

• Creating mailboxes for the lists eg mailbox.devops@ourcompany.com for the mailing list devops@ourcompany.com
• Then with a seperate cron job periodically generating hypermail archive pages for the emails in these mailing list mailboxes?

Kind of ugly but a bit of a stopgap...

Thanks!

@girish That is fantastic that you would also like this. I am happy to alpha / beta test this for you!! Thank you!

@jodumont Thanks for responding.

Well this is one thing we do and hubspot has some facility for this:

https://knowledge.hubspot.com/email-tracking/connect-your-inbox-to-hubspot

but actually there are lots of filters we would like to set up. Eg all emails to say ....@SomeClient.com we want to route duplicates to sales@ourdomain.com, and then maybe all emails to ...@SomeCustormer.com we might route duplicates to support@ourdomain.com etc.

That sort of thing... Basically we want sieve for outgoing emails if this is possible?

We would like to configure Haraka so that:

When we send emails to external people (ie people outside ourdomain.com) then a duplicate of the email would be sent to eg our hubspot account or something similar. So this is not on a per user configuration, this would be site wide configuration.

(This is basically something like sieve on the outgoing emails not on the incoming emails...)

Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi There,

Cloudron is fantastic!! The email platform is nice and stable!! I have been running a test instance for 2 years now and it has worked pretty much flawlessly.

I would like to move our email over to cloudron but in our current setup we use Mailman to keep track of internal lists, eg design@ourdomain.com, sales@ourdomain.com, devops@ourdomain.com, etc. We have a number of lists and people subscribe to those lists etc.

I am happy with docker, and from reading the instructions I think I can install the dockerized containers for Mailman3. I am not sure how to configure Haraka though... Does anyone know how to do this?

Failing that does anyone know when Mailman integration is coming?

(For the MTA ref section see: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/mta.html)

Thanks!

@girish I gather one can do this through postfix configuration.

I have to admit we haven't done this ourselves. It is one of the reasons we actually want to transition to something like Cloudron or poste.io or mailcow or similar so we can actually control such things.

The email setup in Cloudron is really nice and so I think will take a lot less maintenance going forward.

I gather that this can be done in postfix. Here are some relevant links:

• http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html
• How to BCC all outgoing mail from one local mailbox to the other one in the same domain
• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/755853/postfix-send-a-copy-of-every-email-to-a-given-email-address

In the end we would also like to get this going with Mailman. The problem with just distribution lists is often I will want to send a message to someone and cc a distribution list and then if that person is on the distribution list they will receive it twice. Eg consider sending a message to jim@ourdomain.com cc: devops@ourdomain.com. Then jim will get the message twice. With Mailman we can stop this from happening and also have an archive of devops@ourdomain.com, etc.

I have looked but must be missing something. How can I create an outgoing filter for all emails in our domain.

Eg I might want a filter for all outgoing emails from "@ourdomain.com" to "@importantcustomer.com" to send a copy to "internal-crm@ourdomain.com". That way if jim@ourdomain.com or sally@ourdomain.com sends an email to billy@importantcustomer.com then everyone on the list for internal-crm can see what the latest communications with the important customer are.

(I have managed to set up a simple filter for eg jim@ourdomain.com to send a copy of anything incoming from the important customer to a different mailbox or list, but I can't seem to do this with outgoing emails.)

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
