⁠Create required directories to store application data:

• cd /iredmail

• mkdir -p data/{backup-mysql,clamav,custom,imapsieve_copy,mailboxes,mlmmj,mlmmj-archive,mysql,sa_rules,ssl,postfix_queue}

⁠Notes:

• On first run, it will generate a self-signed ssl cert, this may take a long time, please be patient.

• Each time you run the container, few tasks will be ran:

• Update SpamAssassin rules.

• Update ClamAV virus signature database.

• FIRST_MAIL_DOMAIN_ADMIN_PASSWORD is only set/reset on first run, not each run.

• All SQL passwords are randomly set/reset by default each time you launch or relaunch the container. If you don't like this, please set fixed passwords in iredmail-docker.conf, e.g. MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=.

• Do not forget to setup DNS records for your server hostname and email domain names.

• If you're running Docker on Windows and macOS, container will fail to launch and you must switch to docker volumes as described below.

⁠Required parameters:

Server hostname. Must be a FQDN. For example, mail.mydomain.com

HOSTNAME=

First mail domain name. For example, mydomain.com.

FIRST_MAIL_DOMAIN=

(Plain) password of mail user postmaster@<FIRST_MAIL_DOMAIN>.

FIRST_MAIL_DOMAIN_ADMIN_PASSWORD=

A secret token used for accessing mlmmjadmin API.

MLMMJADMIN_API_TOKEN=

The secret string used to encrypt/decrypt Roundcube session data.

Required if you need to run Roundcube webmail.

You can generate random string with command openssl rand -base64 24 as the des key.

Every time this key changed, all Roundcube session data becomes invalid and users will be forced to re-login.

ROUNDCUBE_DES_KEY=
