Are there any plans to develop a mailserver appliance? If not, what do I need to add to the LAMP appliance to have a multi-domain mailserver with spam protection, which can me managed with the webmin interface?
Thanks.
Forum:
Yes, a mail server appliance is in the works
Meanwhile you can roll your own by starting from Core and installing postfix, the postfix Webmin module, spamassassin, and ... then doing the integration.
Or wait for us to do that for you. It's one of the things we're working on behind the scenes. We have a rough draft but it needs more testing/polish.
turnkey rocks!
Welcome back szczym!
;)

Sorry for off topic
Mail server appliance
Wow! Just found Turnkey.
Already running a small mailserver running Gentoo on a FitPC http://www.fit-pc.com/
I use Postfix and CourierIMAP. Want a webmail interface but having great difficulty installing SquirrelMail to run on top of Lighttpd. Something to do with the Gentoo use flags.
Apache probably better.
So what I need is Postfix, CourierIMAP, Apache, Squirrellmail. Or similar functionallity.
I have a second FitPC currently not used. Might install Turnkey now or possibly wait until you mail appliance is ready. Because I'm lazy!
Thanks
John
still waiting.
So, how much polishing is this mail appliance going to take?
previous post was 2009 its now 2011.
Liraz was referring to zimbra
Liraz was referring to the Zimbra appliance (initial release was 2009.10), but you might also want to check out the iredmail tklpatch.
It was 2011, now it is 2013
Any usable mail server yet?
Hi Aol, I had the same question?
I'm in the process of setting up a dovecot mail server ontop of one of the LAMP turnkey as it already has postfix, ssl and mysql installed (though I would prefer postgresql).
I would be very intersted in a well configured and secure mail server appliance.
Email server
Is there any news about turnkey mail server?
Unfortunately not...
It is still high on the wishlist but unfortunately keeps getting pushed back down the list by other things...
Personally I think 2 appliances would be good: 1) A simple Mail server with webmail interface; and 2) a more fully featured groupware type appliance (with calandering etc as well as email/webmail).
Harsh reality is though that until someone picks up the development I don't think either will happen anytime soon... Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...
Please notify me when the mail server appliance is ready
I am eagerly awaiting the availability of mail server appliance. Hope it comes out soon.
was 2013, soon gonna be 2015.
Lets face it, its probably not going to happen. Its a shame because it reflects on turnkeys attitude to the appliances it has created. Probably more interested in lamp and smb than smtp or imap.
Is there a difficulty with spam blacklisting or something? I dont understand why this has not been picked up.
TurnKey is an open source project and it could use your help
The truth is between everything the two of us have to do just to keep TurnKey in the same place we'll never have enough time to package and maintain all the good software that is out there as TurnKey apps. So rather than expanding the roster we've invested in improving the development infrastructure so we have a better shot at attracting new blood to the project.
Thankyou so much for that
Thankyou so much for that reply, It gives us more of a picture of what is going on. Lets hope we have budged this project and it will get started soon. I would love to help, but even though live linux is something I have been working with for over 10 years now, I fear that I am not very good with mail, which is why i came here in the first place. Thankyou for your efforts Liraz, I hope my posts have not offended you.
If you need help/support with building new images
Then feel free to post a new thread. I will do all i can to help out.
{update] FWIW I have just done a more extensive post on the basics of TKLDev which despite the fact that it relates to a different prospective appliance, should be relevant to create a mailserver appliance.
